- Details on sampling:
- Determination of the test substance:
All tested loading levels and the control were analytically verified via HPLC-DAD at the start (0 h) and at the end of the exposure period (48 h). The method was validated prior to this study according to SANCO 3029/99 rev.4 (2000).
Sampling for the analytica monitoring:
At the start of the exposure (0 h), sampling of the fresh media was carried out after preparation of the test substance concentrations. At the end of the exposure (48 h), samples of the old media were taken from additional replicates, which were prepared with test media, but without daphnids and incubated under test conditions until sampling.
Range (target):
Recoveries of the test item should be within ± 20% of the nominal or initially measured concentrations. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- Preparation of the saturated solution:
The saturated solution (100 mg/L test substance was weighed out) was prepared with dilution water one day before the start of the exposure (at -24 h).The test substance was mixed with the dilution water by constant stirring with a magnetic stirrer at approximately 1100 rpm for 24 h at room temperature. After completion of stirring, undissolved particles were removed by membrane filtration (membrane filter 0.45 µm, RC, MACHEREY-NAGEL). The filter was saturated in order to avoid adsorption during the filtration. The first 25 mL of the filtrate were discarded. The filtration was interrupted for 10 min to allow adsorption and saturation of the filter material with dissolved test substance. Thereafter, the filtration was continued. The next 25 mL were discarded. The following filtrate, i.e. the saturated solution, was used as the highest concentration level and as a stock solution for the preparation of further dilution levels by dilution with dilution water. During filtration, the filter was always kept covered.
The saturated solution was checked via laser beam (Tyndall effect) for undissolved test item. No Tyndall effect was observed. Thus, no undissolved test substance was present.
Test loadings:
5 loading levels of the test substance in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2, prepared by dilution of the saturated solution with dilution water, were tested as follows: 6.25 - 12.5 - 25.0 - 50.0 - 100% of the saturated solution, which corresponds to nominal loading level of the test substance of 6.25 - 12.5 - 25.0 - 50.0 - 100 mg/L. The test substance loadings were selected based on the results of a non-GLP preliminary range finding test.
Control:
Dilution water without test substance incubated under the same conditions as the test groups. - Test organisms (species):

- Test system:
Daphnia magna STRAUS (Clone 5)

- Details on test conditions:
- Test method:
The study was performed with a static test design.
Test duration:
48 h
Test vessels:
Glass beakers (4 (ID) x 7 (H) cm), 50 mL capacity, loosely covered with watch glasses
Test volume:
20 mL in each test replicate (see ‘Application’)
Dilution water:
Same as culture medium
Number of daphnids and replicates:
20 daphnids, divided into 4 replicates, each with 5 daphnids, were used for each loading level and the control.
Age of the daphnids:
Less than 24 h old daphnids from a healthy stock were used for at the start of the exposure the study. Juvenile daphnids were removed from the culture vessels at the latest 24 h before the start of the exposure and discarded. The juveniles born within the following period of max. 24 h preceding the exposure were used for the test. No first brood progeny was used for the test.
Acclimatization:
Acclimatization of the daphnids was not necessary, because the dilution water was equivalent to the culture medium.
Application:
20 g test solution per replicate was weighed out into each test vessel. This corresponds to 20 mL per test vessel. The daphnids were inserted with a small amount of dilution water by a pipette.
Test temperature (target):
18 - 22°C, constant within ± 1°C
Illumination (target):
Diffuse light, light intensity of max. 1500 lux
Photoperiod (target):
16/8 h light/dark cycle

Current Study Valid Range
EC50 1.01 mg/L
0.6 - 2.4 mg/L, acc. to AQS P 9/2 (02/2000); clone 5
0.6 - 2.1 mg/L, acc. to OECD 202 (2004); clone A
95% confidence limits 0.767 - 1.24 mg/L - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Methods of evaluation:
The EL100-values (after 24 and 48 h) were empirically derived from the observed immobilization rates. The effect levels (EL10 / 50 / 100) given are based on the nominal loadings of the test substace, since the main component of the test substance could not be detected and presence of the test substance is indicated by the signal of the impurities. The loading-effect relationships of the test substance after 24 and 48 h are shown graphically.
EC- / EL-values and statistical analyses:
The EL10- and the EL50-values after 24 and 48 h for the test substance were calculated by sigmoidal dose-response regression. The respective 95% confidence limits were calculated from the standard error and the t-distribution. All calculations were carried out from the best-fit values with the software GraphPad Prism5. The loading-effect relationships are shown graphically. The EC50-value for the reference substance and its confidence limits were calculated accordingly.
Software:
All data were computer-processed and rounded for presentation. Consequently, minor variations may occur from the original figures if manual calculations based on the original figures are made subsequently. Calculations were made using the following software:
- GraphPad Prism5, GRAPHPAD SOFTWARE, INC.
- Excel, MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Based on the test conditions, the 48 h EL50 of the test substance for Daphnia magna was 18.6 mg/L (95% confidence limits: 16.3 - 20.5 mg/L).
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to determine the short-term toxicity of the test substance in Daphnia magna according to OECD Guideline 202, in compliance with GLP. The study was conducted under static conditions over a period of 48 h with a saturated solution at a nominal loading of 100 mg/L of the test substance and further four dilution levels in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2 (6.25 to 50% of the saturated solution, corresponding to nominal loading levels of 6.25 to 50.0 mg/L of the test substance). All tested levels were visually clear and showed a loading related orange colour throughout the exposure period. Twenty daphnids (divided into 4 replicates with 5 daphnids each) were exposed to each loading level and the control. The concentrations of the test substance were analytically verified via HPLC-DAD at the start (0 h) and at the end of the exposure (48 h) in all concentration levels and in the control. The measured concentrations of the main component of the test substance were below the LOQ in all loading levels. Instead of the main component a signal with a different retention time was observed. As a result of adequate investigations, this signal was considered to originate from impurities of the test substance. For this reason, the effect levels given are based on the nominal loading levels of the test substance. The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled. At 48 h, all daphnids at the loading levels 50 and 100 mg/L were found to be immobile. At 25 mg/L, 18 out of 20 daphnids were immobile. Under the test conditions, the 48 h nominal EL50 of the test substance was determined to be 18.6 mg/L (Klix, 2017).

Additional Observations during the Definitive Test
All tested concentration levels were visually clear and showed a loading related orange colour throughout the exposure period.
The highest loading level was orange and the lowest concentration was light orange.
Measured Exposure Concentrations during the Definitive Test
The concentrations of the test substance Disperse Orange 30 were analytically verified via HPLC-DAD at the start (0 h) and at the end of the
exposure (48 h) in all concentration levels and in the control. The measured concentrations of the main component of the test substance
were below the lowest calibration level in all loading levels at the start of the exposure (0 h) and also at the end of the exposure
(48 h). Instead of the main component a signal with a different retention time was observed. As a result of adequate investigations,
this signal was considered to originate from impurities of the test substance. Thus, the test substance was present in the test solutions.
Water Quality Parameters
The measured water quality parameters(i.e. pH-value, dissolved oxygen concentration, total water hardness and water temperature)
were within the acceptable limits.
