The 0 and 48-Hour samples were taken for immediate analysis. The 24-Hour samples were taken and stored frozen for analysis at a later date.

Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: the test substance is poorly soluble in water. Following ECETOC (1996) and OECD (2019) guidance on testing substances of high purity, yet poorly soluble in water, a slow-stir saturated solution was prepared by stirring an excess (50 mg/L) of test in test media for a period of 23 hours with a 1-hour settlement period prior to removing any undissolved test item present by filtration, (first 500 mL discarded) to give a 100% v/v saturated solution of the test item.
A nominal amount of test item (250 mg) was dispersed in 5 liters of test water and with the aid of magnetic stirrer using a stirring rate such that a vortex was formed to give a dimple at the water surface. The stirring was stopped after 23 hours and allowed to stand for 1-hour. Visual observations made on the slow-stir saturated solution following settlement indicated that a significant amount of dispersed test item was present in the water column and hence it was considered justifiable to remove the slow-stir saturated solution by filtering through a glass wool plug (2 to 4 cm in length). A wide bore glass tube, covered at one end with Nescofilm was submerged into the vessel, sealed end down , to a depth of approximately 5 cm from the bottom of the vessel. A length of Tygon tubing was inserted into the glass tube and pushed through the Nescofilm seal. A glass wool plug was inserted into the opposite end of the tubing and the slow-stir saturated solution removed by mid-depth siphoning (the first 500 mL discarded) to give a 100% v/v saturated solution. Microscopic observations of the slow-stir saturated solution were preformed after filtering and showed no micro-dispersions of test item to be present. A series of dilutions was made from this
saturated solution to give the remaining test concentrations of 10, 18, 32 and 56% v/v saturated solution.
Each prepared concentration was inverted several times to ensure adequate mixing and homogeneity for the preparation at 0 hours. The concentration and stability of the test item in the test preparations was verified by chemical analysis at 0, 24 and 48 hours.
- Eluate: 100% v/v
- Test concentrations: 10, 18, 32, 56 and 100% v/v saturated solution.
- Controls: Negative and positive (potassium dichromate) controls used
- Evidence of undissolved material (e.g. precipitate, surface film, etc.): Initially yes, but not following filtration.
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- - The test was carried out using first instar Daphnia magna derived from in-house laboratory cultures.
- Adult daphnids were maintained in 150 mL glass vessels containing 100 mL Elendt M4 medium in a temperature controlled room.
- Temperature: 18 to 22 °C.
- Lighting cycle: 16 hours light and 8 hours darkness cycle with 20 minute dawn and dusk transition periods.
- Feeding: Each culture was fed daily with a mixture of algal suspension (Raphidocelis subcapitata formerly known as Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) and GEMMA Micro 300 fish food suspension.
Culture maintenance: conditions ensured that reproduction was by parthenogenesis. Gravid adults were isolated the day before initiation of the test, such that the young daphnids produced overnight were less than 24 hours old. These young were removed from the cultures and used for testing. The diet and diluent water are considered not to contain any contaminant that would affect the integrity or outcome of the study.

- Details on results:
- There was no immobilization in 20 daphnids exposed to geometric mean measured test concentrations of 0.0082, 0.017, 0.032 and 0.074 mg/L for a period of 48 hours. One daphnid was observed to be immobilized at 48 hours in the test concentration of 0.0050 mg/L. Given that this equivalated to only 5% immobilization in this test group his was considered not to be significant. The EC50 was >0.074 mg/l. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) after 24 and 48 hours exposure was 0.074 mg/L. Due to the nature of the data it was not possible to calculate the slope and error of the response curve at 24 or 48 hours.
- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- After 24 hours the EC50 was 1.2 mg/l (95% CI of 1.1 - 1.8 mg/l) and after 48 hours the EC50 was 0.71 mg/l (0.61 - 0.81 mg/l). The results were in the normal range for this reference item.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Analysis of the immobilization data was carried out using the Weibull analysis using linear maximum-likelihood regression at 24 and 48 hours. All statistical analysis was carried out using the ToxRat Professional computer software package.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The test item is poorly water soluble and prepared as a dilution series from 100% v/v saturated solution. Chemical analysis of the fresh test preparations at 0 and 24 hours showed measured test concentrations to range from 0.0054 to 0.15 mg/L. Analysis of the corresponding old/expired test preparations at 24 and 48 hours showed measured test concentrations had declined, to between less than the limit of quantification (LOQ), which was determined to be 0.0042 mg/L to 0.099 mg/L and hence it was considered appropriate to calculate the results based on the geometric mean measured test concentrations in order to give a “worst case” analysis of the data.
The geometric mean measured test concentrations were determined to be 0.0050, 0.0082, 0.017, 0.032 and 0.074 mg/L. Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item gave EC50 values based on the geometric mean measured test concentrations of greater than 0.074 mg/L. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) was 0.074 mg/L.
This study showed that there were no toxic effects at saturation. - Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item to Daphnia magna was performed using the OECD 202 Guideline Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test.
Preliminary solubility work indicated that it was not possible to obtain a testable solution of the test item using traditional methods of preparation. Dissolved test item concentration of approximately 0.063 mg/L was obtained from a slow-stir saturated solution method of preparation indicating this to be the limit of water solubility of this item under test conditions. Following a preliminary range-finding test, 20 daphnids were exposed to aqueous solutions of the test item at nominal concentrations of 10, 18, 32, 56 and 100% v/v saturated solution for 48 hours at a temperature of 21 °C under semi-static test conditions.
Chemical analysis of the fresh test preparations at 0 and 24 hours showed measured test concentrations to range from 0.0054 to 0.15 mg/L. Analysis of the corresponding old/expired test preparations at 24 and 48 hours showed measured test concentrations had declined, to between less than the limit of quantification (LOQ), which was determined to be 0.0042 mg/L to 0.099 mg/L and hence it was considered appropriate to calculate the results based on the geometric mean measured test concentrations in order to give a “worst case” analysis of the data.
The geometric mean measured test concentrations were determined to be 0.0050, 0.0082, 0.017, 0.032 and 0.074 mg/L. Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item gave EC50 values based on the geometric mean measured test concentrations of greater than 0.074 mg/L. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) was 0.074 mg/L.
This study showed that there were no toxic effects at saturation.
