- Details on results:
- - Mortality of control: During the test period, no immobilisation was observed in the control groups and no daphnid was found entrapped at the surface of the control solutions.
- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: The concentration of 8 mg/L exhibited particles in the test solutions.
- LC50 exceeds solubility of substance in test medium.
- Other observations: Several daphnids were found entrapped at the surface or coated in test material at the bottom of test solutions at 1.66, 2.91, 4.85 and 8.33 mg/L (number of coated organisms increasing with the test concentrations), which did not allow observations on further sublethal effects. This was considered to be more a mechanical effect than a toxic effect.

- Statistics: EC50 values are estimated by means of a computer program using one of the three statistical methods: probit analysis, moving average method or binomial probability. The method selected is determined by the data set. EC50 values are presented with 95% confidence limits when the methods of probit analysis or moving average are used to perform the calculation.

- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM
- Common name: harlequin fly
- Stage and instar at study initiation: First instar larvae
- Method of breeding: midges are kept in cages (40 x 40 x 40 cm), with a gauze on each side of the cage. A basin is set on the bottom of each cage. Bottom of the basins are covered with a layer of "Kieselgur" (silica) and a layer of reconstituted water. To
start a culture in the cage, 2 - 4 egg masses are placed into the prepared basin. Hatched larvae are fed with green algae and an aqueous suspension of a plant material based fish food (Tetra Phyll®). After 2 to 3 weeks the adults emerge. After mating, female adults will lay egg masses on the water surface where these can be taken to start a new culture or to perform toxicity tests. The culture conditions are 20 ± 2°C and 16 to 8 hours light-dark-cycle (light intensity ca. 500 - 1000 lux).

METHOD FOR PREPARATION AND COLLECTION OF EARLY INSTARS OR OTHER LIFE STAGES, INCLUDING CULTURING CONDITIONS: fresh egg masses were transferred in small dishes with test medium. Two to three days after hatching the L1-larvae were transferred with a blunt pipette to the test vessels. prior to insertion of the larvae into the test vessels, a few drops of an aqueous fish food suspension (50 g Tetra Phyll®/ L deionized water, refrained from the settled fraction) were applied to the culture dishes. - Test type:

Description of key information
EC50 (48h) = 2.24 mg/L (nominal, Chironomus riparius, OECD 235)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Fresh water invertebrates
Fresh water invertebrates
- Dose descriptor:
- EC50
- Effect concentration:
- 2.24 mg/L
Additional information
Two GLP studies testing the short-term toxicity of the test item to aquatic invertebrates are available.
The key study evaluated the acute immobilisation to larvae of
Chironomus riparius (1st instar) according to OECD 235. Larvae were
exposed for 48 hours in a static test system to concentrations of 1.00,
1.80, 3.20, 5.60 and 10.0 mg a.s./L, a dilution water control and a
solvent control containing 100µL/L dimethylformamide. Measured test item
concentrations of fresh and old test solutions ranged between 82% and
100%. After 48 hours, a statistically significant reduced mobility was
observed in all exposure groups with 24.1% immobility at lowest test
concentration and 100% immobility at a nominal test item concentration
of 10 mg a.s./L. The derived EC50 (48 h) was 2.24 mg a.s./L (nominal).
Short-term toxicity of the substance to Daphnia magna was investigated in one study according to OECD 202 and EPA OPP 72 -2. An EC50 (48h) > 8.33 mg/L is reported with this concentration being the visual limit of solubility of the test substance, and the NOEC (48h) was 1.66 mg/L. The measured concentrations were 93 - 110% of the nominal values throughout the test period, and the effect concentrations are based on mean measured values.
