- Details on test organisms:
- The freshwater alga, Raphidocelis subcapitata, was selected as the test species for this study. The species is representative of an important group of freshwater algae, and was selected for use in the test based upon a past history of use, and ease of culturing in the laboratory. Original algal cultures were obtained from the University of Texas at Austin, and have been maintained in culture medium at EAG Laboratories, Easton, Maryland since June 2017. Algal cells used in this test were obtained from EAG Laboratories – Easton cultures that had been actively growing in culture medium under similar environmental conditions as used in this test for at least two weeks prior to test initiation. Algal cells for this study were taken from a culture that had been transferred to fresh medium four days prior to test initiation.

- pH:
- Measurements of temperature, pH, and light intensity are presented in Tables 2, 3, and 4, respectively (see results). The pH of all test solutions at test initiation was 7.4. At test termination, pH measurements in samples of test solution obtained by pooling the replicates of each experimental group ranged from 7.5 to 9.9. The pH increased by more than 1.5 units over the course of the study, however, the photosynthetic activity of the test organism increases pH over time. The increase observed in pH was not considered to be detrimental to the study since growth in the control replicates achieved all validity criteria.

- Environmental Conditions
Test chambers were held in an environmental chamber at a temperature of 24 ± 2ºC. The temperature of a container of water adjacent to the test chambers in the environmental chamber was measured continuously using an Amega Scientific Corporation centralized monitoring system. The algae were held under continuous cool-white fluorescent lighting throughout the test. The target light intensity was 6,000 lux ± 10%. Light intensity was measured at test solution level at five locations surrounding the test flasks at test initiation using a SPER Scientific 840006C light meter. The pH of the medium in each treatment and control group was measured at test initiation and exposure termination using a Thermo Orion A214 pH meter. At test initiation, pH was measured in the individual batches of test solution prepared for each treatment and control group. At exposure termination, pH was measured in pooled samples of test solution collected from each of the remaining replicates of each treatment and control group. - Reference substance (positive control):

- CONCLUSIONS
The freshwater alga, Raphidocelis subcapitata, was exposed to a series of six nominal WAF loading rates of 1,12-Dodecanediol Bismethacrylate (CAS #72829-09-5) ranging from 1.0 to 100 µg a.i./L. The toxicity of 1,12-Dodecanediol Bismethacrylate to Raphidocelis subcapitata was assessed based on effects on cell density, growth rate, and yield relative to the negative control. The 72-hour NOEC was determined to be 2.6 µg a.i./L based on statistically significant reductions in cell density and yield. The 72 hour EC50, ErC50 and EyC50 values for cell density, growth rate, and yield were determined to be 8.1, 17, and 8.3 µg a.i./L, respectively. - Executive summary:

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Observations and Measurements
Measurements of temperature, pH, and light intensity are presented in Tables 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Temperatures remained withinthe 24 ± 2°C range established for the test. The pH of all test solutions at test initiation was 7.4. At test termination, pH measurements in samples of test solution obtained by pooling the replicates of each experimental group ranged from 7.5 to 9.9. The pH increased by more than 1.5 units over the course of the study, however, the photosynthetic activity of the test organism increases pH over time. The increase observed in pH was not considered to be detrimental to the study since growth in the control replicates achieved all validity criteria. The light intensity measured on Day 0 ranged from 5,900 to 6,540 lux, which was within the desired range of 6,000 lux ± 10%.

The
toxicity of 1,12-Dodecanediol
Bismethacrylate (CAS #72829-09-5) to
R. subcapitata was determined by evaluating changes in cell
density over a 72-hour exposure period. Cell
densities were used to calculate growth rates for each 24-hour interval
of exposure and yields at 72 hours of exposure. Mean
cell densities, growth rates, and yields and their corresponding percent
inhibition values after 72 hours of exposure are presented in Table 5. NOEC
values and 72-hour ECx, ErCx, and EyCxvalues
and their corresponding 95% confidence limits for cell density, growth
rate, and yield, respectively, are presented in Table 6. ECx
and ErCx values estimated at 24 and 48 hours of exposure are presented
in Appendix 5. Individual
replicate data for each growth parameter are presented in Appendices 6
and 7.

1 The initial cell density of the stock culture was determined and an inoculum volume was administered to each test chamber to yield a cell density of approximately 10,000 cells/mL at test initiation (0 hours). 2 Mean cell density in the negative control replicates after 72 hours was 3,256,436 cells/mL, exceeding the 16X growth requirement. 3 Yield was calculated as the final cell density in the exposure period minus the initial cell density. |

After 72 hours of exposure, inhibition of cell density in the1.0, 2.6, 6.4, 16, 40 and 100 µg a.i./Ltreatment groups (based on nominal WAF loading rates) was -6, -6, 27, 90, 99 and 100%, respectively, relative to the negative control. Inhibition of growth rate in the1.0, 2.6, 6.4, 16, 40 and 100 µg a.i./Ltreatmentgroups was -1, -1, 5, 45, 90 and 98%, respectively, relative to the negative control. Inhibition of yield in the1.0, 2.6, 6.4, 16, 40 and 100 µg a.i./Ltreatment groups was -6, -7, 27, 91, 100 and 100%, respectively, relative to the negative control(Table 5). Dunnett’s test indicated mean cell density and mean yield were significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in the6.4, 16, 40 and 100 µg a.i./Ltreatment groups when compared to the negative control. Jonckheere-Terpstra Step-Down Trend test indicated that mean growth rate was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in the16, 40 and 100 µg a.i./Ltreatment groups when compared to the negative control. The 72-hour NOEC was determined to be 2.6 µg a.i./Lbased on statistically significant reductions in cell density and yield. The 72-hour EC50values for cell density, growth rate, and yield were determined to be 8.1, 17, and 8.3 µg a.i./L, respectively (Table 6).
After 72 hours of exposure, adherence of cells to the test chambers was not observed in any of the control or treatment groups. Flocculation or aggregation of cells was not observed in any of the experimental groups. Cells present in all treatment groups appeared normal when compared to cells in the negative control.
Conditions for the Validity of the Test
Mean cell density in the control flasks increased by a factor of 326 after three days, achieving the 16X growth criterion. The coefficient of variation of average specific growth rates in the control replicates was 2.3%, achieving the less than 7% criterion. The mean percent coefficient of variation for section-by-section specific growth rates in the control replicates was 22.4%, achieving the less than 35% criterion (Appendix 8).

Description of key information
A study assessing the toxicity of the test item to Raphidocelis subcapitata (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) was conducted in accordance with the OECD 201 Test Guideline and GLP requirements.
Following exposure to a series of six nominal WAF loading rates of the test item ranging from 1.0 to 100 µg a.i./L, the 72 hour ErC50 (growth rate) was found to be 17 µg a.i./L and the ErC10 (growth rate) was equal to 6.4 µg a.i./L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 17 µg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 6.4 µg/L
