In range-finding test, the 0% of control organisms were immobilised at the end of the test and the dissolved oxygen concentration of control and test groups during the test was 8.25-8.67 mg O2/L. The initial pH measurements did not differ from the final measurements by more than 1.5 units in each test. The results of the range-finding test showed that EC₅₀was 8.46 mg/L.

In limit test, the results showed below:

Conclusions:

According to OECD 202 test method, the 48-hr EC50 of Everdirect SH12 was 3.34 mg/L.

Executive summary:

This test using the procedures outlined in the SuperLab Study Plan for M62-151100087001EN which is based on the SOP for the OECD 202 (SOPE-505) and OECD 202 (OECD, 2004). The results of this OECD 202 test for Everdirect SH12 show that all validity criteria were met. Under the conditions of this test, the 48-hr EC₅₀ of Everdirect SH12 was 3.34 mg/L.

Additional information

In both range-finding and definitive test, not more than 10 % of the Daphnia magna were immobilised in the control and the dissolved oxygen concentration of control and test groups at the end of the test was ≥3 mg O₂/L. All test validity criteria were met. The pH of the test solutions was within the ranges outlined in the OECD 202 test guideline. Under the conditions of this test, the 48-hr EC50 of Everdirect SH12 was 3.34 mg/L.
