- The 72-hour EyC50 was calculated to be > 100 mg test item/L and the ErC50 > 100 mg test item/L. The 72-hour EyC10 was calculated to be 13.4 mg test item/L and the ErC10 > 100 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOEyC was determined to be 10 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOEyC of 32 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOErC was determined to be 10 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOErC is 32 mg test item/L.
The microscopic examination of the shape of the algal cells after 72 hours of test duration did not show any difference between the algae that had been growing up to a nominal test concentration of 100 mg test item/L and the algal cells in the control. Thus, the shape of the algal cells was not obviously affected up to this test concentration, the highest concentration tested. - Results with reference substance (positive control):

Title:
Fluormorpholinylacrylaldehyd (FMA): Toxicity to Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata in an Algal Growth Inhibition Test
Purpose:
The purpose of this test was to determine the inhibitory effect of the test item Fluormorpholinylacrylaldehyd (FMA) on the growth of the freshwater green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata. For this purpose, exponentially growing cultures of this unicellular green algal species were exposed to various concentrations of the test item under defined conditions. The inhibition of growth in relation to control cultures was determined over a test period of 72 hours hours, and thus over several algal generations. The test method of application and the test system are recommended by the test guidelines and Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata is one of the recommended test species. The purpose of the analytical part of this study was to verify the concentrations of the test item in the test medium.
Guidelines/Recommendations:
-OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals, Section 2, No. 201: "Freshwater Alga and Cyanobacteria, Growth Inhibition Test", adopted March 23, 2006, corrected July 28, 2011
-SANCO/3029/99 rev.4 11/07/00: Residues: Guidance for generating and reporting methods of analysis in support of pre-registration data requirements for Annex II (part A; Section 4) and Annex III (part A; Section 5) of directive 91/414
Materials and Methods
Test Item: Fluormorpholinylacrylaldehyd (FMA); Batch No.: BXR82PT; purity: 98.6 %, according to certificate of analysis.
Test Species: Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, Strain No. 61.81 SAG formerly known as Selenastrum capricornutum, and recently renamed as Raphidocelis subcapitata (KORSHIKOV).
Cultivated in the laboratories of ibacon; original source: "Sammlung von Algenkulturen, Albrecht-von-Haller-Institut für Pflanzenwissen-schaften, Universität Göttingen", 37073 Göttingen, Germany.
Test Design: This study encompassed 6 treatment groups (5 dose rates of the test item and a control) with three replicates per test concentration and six replicates for the control. At test start 50 mL of the test media were inoculated with approx. 5000 algal cells per mL test medium and defined volumes of the algal suspensions were sampled after 24, 48 and 72 hours for determination of cell densities by spectrophotometrically measurement.
Endpoints: Yield and growth rate of the algae
Test Concentrations: 100, 32, 10, 3.2 and 1.0 mg test item/L (spacing factor 3.16), and a control.
Test Conditions:
Water temperature: 21.6 to 22.3 °C; pH values at test start 7.8 to 8.0, at the end of the test 8.9 to 9.6; continuous illumination; mean light intensity: 5540 lux (5310 to 5960 lux).
Results
Biological Results:
The 72-hour EyC50 was calculated to be > 100 mg test item/L and the ErC50 > 100 mg test item/L. The 72-hour EyC10 was calculated to be 13.4 mg test item/L and the ErC10 > 100 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOEyC was determined to be 10 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOEyC of 32 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOErC was determined to be 10 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOErC is 32 mg test item/L.
The microscopic examination of the shape of the algal cells after 72 hours of test duration did not show any difference between the algae that had been growing up to a nominal test concentration of 100 mg test item/L and the algal cells in the control. Thus, the shape of the algal cells was not obviously affected up to this test concentration, the highest concentration tested.
Analytical Results:
The quantification of the test item Fluormorpholinylacrylaldehyd (FMA) in the test samples was performed using liquid chromatography with UV detection.
At the start of the test 98% of the nominal test concentrations were found (average of all test concentrations). After 72 hours test duration, 96 % of the nominal value was determined (average of all test concentrations). During the test the algae were exposed to a mean of 97 % of nominal.
Conclusion:
The influence of Fluormorpholinylacrylaldehyd (FMA) on the growth of the freshwater green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was assessed in a static concentration-response test. The 72-hour EyC50 was determined to be > 100 mg test item/L, and the 72-hour ErC50 value was not determinable. The 72-hour NOEyC and NOErC were determined to be 10 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOEyC and LOErC were determined to be 32 mg test item/L.
The initial concentrations and the maintenance of the exposure concentrations during the test were verified in the analytical part. All reported results refer to nominal values since the concentrations of the test item were within ± 20 % of the nominal concentrations during the test. This study is classified acceptable and satisfies the guideline requirements for growth inhibition algae studies.
