Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- Samples of the test solutions were collected at approximately 0 and 72 hours to measure concentrations of the active substance. At test initiation, samples were collected from each test concentration and control solution from the middle layer of solution prior to distribution into test chambers. At exposure termination, the biological replicates from each respective test concentration and blank control solution were pooled and then sampled. The abiotic control replicate was also sampled. Two sets of samples were collected at each interval. For each sample, a 9 mL aliquot of the sample was transferred to a vial containing 1 mL of acidified methanol. Algae were removed from the 72 hour samples by centrifugation prior to analysis. One set was processed immediately for analysis. The second set was stored refrigerated for possible future analysis.

- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION:
A primary stock solution was prepared by dissolving 0.0100 g of the test substance in freshwater AAP medium to a total volume of 1000 mL, for a nominal concentration of 10 milligrams per litre. The stock was mixed by sonicating for 20 minutes and inverting to mix, and appeared clear and yellow in colour after mixing. Additional test solutions were prepared in freshwater AAP medium at nominal concentrations of 0.041, 0.12, 0.37, 1.1 and 3.3 mg/L by proportionally diluting the primary stock solution, which was used as the test solution for the highest treatment level. The test solutions were inverted to mix. The 0.041, 0.12, and 0.37 mg/L solutions appeared clear and colourless and otherwise unremarkable at the time of preparation. The remaining test solutions appeared clear and yellow in colour. At test termination, no surface slicks or particulates were noted in any test solution.

- Observation of abnormalities (for algal test): At exposure termination, cells in the blank control and the 0.0012, 0.036, 0.20, 0.32 and 0.85 mg/L treatment groups were observed to be normal in size, shape, and colour. Cells in the 4.6 mg/L treatment group appeared enlarged compared to the control cells. There was no evidence of aggregation or adherence to the test chambers in any test group.
- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: no
- Effect concentrations exceeding solubility of substance in test medium: no - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The calculation of areas under the growth curve, growth rates, yields and percent inhibition values, as well as all statistical analyses, were conducted using SAS Version 8.2. The 72-hour area under the growth curve, growth rate and yield data were evaluated for normality and homogeneity of variance (α = 0.01) using the Shapiro-Wilk’s and Levene’s tests, respectively. Where the data did not meet the assumptions for normality or homogeneity of variance, log transformations (natural log) were performed to correct any condition of non-normality or unequal error variances. The treatment groups were compared to the control using ANOVA and Dunnett’s test (α = 0.05). The results of the statistical analyses, as well as an evaluation of the concentration-response pattern, were used to determine the NOEC and LOEC relative to each parameter at 72 hours.
Any other information on results incl. tables
Cell density increased in the blank control by a factor of 185 in 72 hours. The coefficient of variation of average specific growth rates during the whole exposure period (0-72 hour) in replicates of the blank control was 3.2%. In addition, the mean percent coefficient of variation for section-by-section specific growth rates (days 0-1, 1-2, and 2-3) was 7.9%. Therefore, the test was considered to be valid.
To determine if the test substance had an algistatic or algicidal effect, recovery was initiated for the geometric mean, measured concentrations of 0.32, 0.85 and 4.6 mg/L. In the recovery phase it was demonstrated that the effects of the test substance were algistatic (reversible) rather than algicidal, to P. subcapitata at concentrations less than or equal to 4.6 mg/L based on greater than 16X increase of healthy cells within seven days.

72-hour EbC50 = 0.23 mg/L
72-hour ErC50 = 0.90 mg/L
72-hour NOEC = 0.20 mg/L
72-hour LOEC = 0.32 mg/L - Executive summary:
Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was exposed to six concentrations of the test substance and evaluated for effects on area under the growth curve, growth rate and yield according to OECD Guideline 201. The EbC50 and ErC50 were calculated to be 0.23 and 0.90 mg/L, respectively. Dunnett’s test indicated that mean area under the growth curve, growth rate and yield were significantly reduced (p<0.05) relative to the blank control at the 0.32, 0.85 and 4.6 mg/L test levels. Consequently, for all endpoints, the NOEC and LOEC were determined to be 0.20 and 0.32 mg/L, respectively. The test substance was determined to be algistatic at concentrations less than or equal to 4.6 mg/L, the highest concentration tested.
