- Water: The water samples were collected at the 7d, 11d, 14d, 21d, 24d, 28d, and 30d of the uptake phase to analysis the concentration of test item. Two samples were taken from the test group and one from the control.
Fish: The fish samples were collected from the control and the test group at the same days as described above to analysis the concentration of the test item. At least 2 fish in control and 10 to 15 fish (in replicates) in test group were taken for measurement before feeding. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on preparation of test solutions, spiked fish food or sediment:
- Although the test item is liquid, due to the low concentration (200mg/kg) of exposure and the small amount (10-159) of diets prepared, if without the dispersion of acetone, the weighing amount of 2 mg- 3 mg is too small to satisfy the accuracy requirement of the balance and also leads to uneven dispersion. So, acetone was used to mix the test item with the diet. 32.0 mg test item was accurately weighed and dissolved in acetone to make stock solution with concentration of 1280 mg/L.
The preparation of diet: added a certain volume of the stock solution to a certain amounts of fish feed to make the diet with concentration of 200 mg/kg, mixed it well, took it in the ventilation cabinet to allow the excess solvent to evaporate naturally. The next day, three samples were randomly selected, and the concentration of the samples was measured. The control group was treated with the same amount of acetone (without the test item). - Test organisms (species):
- other: Rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus).
- Details on test organisms:
- Test organisms: Rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus). The fish were of approximately the same size and age (i.e. the length of the largest fish is not more than two-thirds of that of the smallest fish). The length of fish was in the range of 3.0-4.0 cm. The body weight was in the range of 0.4-0.69. The fish were healthy and free from any apparent malformation or behavioral change.
Justification for selection: Rare minnow ( Gobiocypris rarus) is easy to obtain and breed, and is quite sensitive to various chemicals. It is widely used in fish toxicity testing and has rich data available for reference purpose. It is used as a representative model organism in China. It can be used to carry the test of 305-ID: Dietary Exposure Bioaccumulation Fish Test.
Source: Rare minnow (Code No.: Rare minnow C20180118) were reproduced and maintained in the lab of CTI-SET after introduced in 2014 from the Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Wuhan, China.
Acclimation: the fish were acclimated in the water with the same quality of test water 2 weeks before the test. During the acclimation, the temperature was controlled between 21 to 25°C, within the range of ± 2°C, the light was maintained for 12 hours daily, and the oxygen concentration was maintained above 80% of air saturation value. The fish were fed every day. The total mortality of the fish was 0%, which was less than the required 5% maximum mortality during the 7 days acclimation period at the beginning of the test, the fish could be used. - Route of exposure:

- Preliminary Test
As the test item is a UVCB substance, four principal component ions were measured by LC-MS/MS to characterize the concentration of the test.
In the pre-test of acute toxicity, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.6 mg/L were tested for aqueous exposure and concentration analysis. The result showed that after 96 hours of exposure, the mortality offish was 10% at 0.4 mg/Land 100% at 0.8 mg/Land 1.6 mg/L respectively. However, in the concentration of 0.4 mg/L, the test item could not maintained in the range of 80%~120% of the initial, and reduced to about half after exposure of 24 hours, which was consistent with the result of the fish acute toxicity test (Study Number: 511883) provided by the sponsor.
In order to determine the stability of the test item at the low exposure level of bioaccumulation test (should be no more than 2% of the LC50), the two concentration levels of 5 μg/L and 50 μg/L were monitored for potential changes in concentration for 24 hours. By comparing the responses and changes of the components at 0, 6 and 24 h, the concentration could not be maintained for 6 hours.
The above results showed that neither semi-static nor flow-through system can be ensured to keep the concentration within the range required by the test by the way of aqueous exposure, therefore, only dietary exposure can be used.
The diets with concentrations of 1000 and 200 mg/kg were prepared through dietary exposure. The feeding amount was 1.5% of the body weight of the fish.- In the 1000 mg/kg group, all fish demonstrated slow eating at the beginning of exposure, and refused to eat after 48 hours and showed erratic swimming. After 72 hours, the fish were lethargic, and after 96 hours hyperventilation and imbalance was observed. 40% mortality was found after 120 hours. After 7 days of exposure, the survived fish were sampled to analyze the concentration of test item. The result showed that no test item was detected in the concentration of 1000 mg/kg possibly due to the food refusal of the exposed fish.
The exposure group of 1000 mg/kg was terminated then. The fish fed 200 mg/kg concentration were normal during the exposure period.
During the test, the accuracy, homogeneity and stability of the fish feed prepared were investigated, and the time of steady state and the amount of bioaccumulation were calculated. The result showed that the accuracy deviation in the diet was 91.3%~118%, which was in the range of 80%-120% of nominal. The homogeneity result showed that the RSD was 2.2%~ 14.7%, less than the requirement of 15%.
Under the refrigerated condition, the test item in diet was stable for 19 days with a deviation of 10.5%, which was kept in the range of ±20% of the initial concentration.
In the 200 mg/kg group, the concentration of test item in the fish reached a relatively stable state after 12 days of exposure. The BMF value after 30 days was 8. 70E-5, which indicated that the bioaccumulative capacity of the test item in fish is very low, and it is not necessary to carry out the depuration.
According to the results of the range-finding test, main test was conducted with the concentration of 200 mg/kg in diet.
Exposure
The test exposure system was a flow-through exposure system. The test container was a 20 L fish tank with 50 fish. There were three tanks in the test group and one tank in the control. During the exposure, the flow rate was controlled about 1 00ml/min, with a renewal volume of 7 to 8 volumes of tank each day.
Observation and Measurement
Observation
During the test, the fish were observed daily to evaluate the number of mortalities and the number of individuals exhibiting signs of abnormal behavior. Water temperature was monitored every day, and pH and dissolved oxygen of water in all test containers were measured once a week; Hardness and total organic carbon of water were determined at the beginning of the test.
Measurement
Diet
At the uptake stage, before and after the test feed renewal and at the end of the uptake phase, 3 samples were randomly selected from the control and the test diets, and the concentration of the test item was measured.
The lipid contents of the control and test diets were measured before the start of the test and at the end of the uptake phase.
Fish
During the test, 20 fish at the beginning and 10 fish at the end were randomly selected from each group to measure body length and body weight.
At the beginning of uptake phase, 10 fish was randomly selected from the control and the test group to determine the lipid content. On the 24d, 28d and 30d (the end of the test), 10 fish was randomly selected to measure the lipid content respectively.
It can check if similar quantities of offered diet have been consumed by comparing the growth rate between the test and control groups. A t-test on growth rate constants was performed, to test whether growth differs between control and test groups.
Treatment of the Test System
At the end of the test, surviving fish were collected and placed in the aqueous solution of ethylene glycol phenyl ether (with concentration of 2%o-5%o) to be euthanized.
The dead fish were stored temporarily in the refrigerator and then delivered to the approved waste handling company for disposal. - Nominal and measured concentrations:

Calculation of BMFss
In the dietary exposure bioaccumulation fish test, if the concentration of the test item in the fish reaches a steady state during the uptake phase, the biomagnification factor of the steady state can be evaluated and calculated by the following formula:
BMFss = Cfss / Cfood
Where: BMFss-the steady-state biomagnification factor;
Cfss- Mean concentration of test item in fish at steady state (mg/kg);
Cfood - Mean concentration of test item in diet (mg/kg).
(2) Assumed Specific Growth Rate Calculation
The "assumed" specific growth rate is the single-tailed growth rate derived from the comparison of the initial average weight of the fish in the whole test vessel with the following formula:
r = ([InW2 – InW1] / [t2 – t1]) x 100
Where: r-Specific growth rate;
W1-The weight of a single fish at the start of the test;
W2-The weight of a single fish at the end of the test;
InW1-The mean logarithmic of body weight per fish at the start of the test;
InW2-The logarithm of the body weight per fish at the end of the test;
t1, t2-The interval between the start and the end of the test, day.
(3) Calculation of Lipid-Correction factor (Lc)
Lc = Lfish / Lfood
Where: Lc-Lipid-Correction Factor;
Lfish-the mean lipid fraction in fish (%);
Lfood -the mean lipid fraction in fish feed (%).
(4) Calculation of Lipid-Corrected steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFssL)
BMFssL = BMFss / Lc
Where: BMFssL-Lipid-corrected steady-state biomagnification factor;
BMFss-steady-state biomagnification factor;
Lc-Lipid-corrected factor. - Lipid content:

During the period of the exposure, water temperature was maintained in the range of 22.2-23.8°C. pH value was in the range of 7.64-7.96; dissolved oxygen was in the range of 99.0%-100.6% ASV.
Mortality and Abnormal Behavior of Fish
During the period of exposure, there was no mortality or abnormal behavior in the control group and test group.
Growth Rate
At the beginning of uptake phase, the average body weights of control and test group were 0.473 g ± 0.064 g and 0.496 g ± 0.085 g respectively; the average body lengths were 3.5 cm ± 0.1 cm and 3.6 cm ± 0.1 cm respectively. At the end of absorption phase, the average body weights of control and test group were 0.515 g ± 0.036 g and 0.536 g ± 0.014 g respectively; the average body lengths were 3.6 cm± 0.1 cm and 3.6 cm ± 0.2 cm respectively. It showed that the fish did not significantly grow during the test.
According to the results of assumed specific growth rate and t-test, there was no statistically different of specific growth rate between test group and control group (p=0.31 ). No adverse effects were observed on the growth of test fish with diet spiked with test item.
Analysis of Diets
During the uptake phase, five batches of diets were prepared, 3 samples of each batch were randomly selected from the control and test group for analysis. The measured concentration for prepared diet was 91.5%-119% of nominal. The RSD was 0.57%-2.6%, within the range of ±15%, so it showed high degree of homogeeity.
During the uptake phase, after stored, the test item in the expired diets was measured as 81.5%-109% of the new diets, the concentration of the test substance in fish food before and at the end of the uptake phase was within a range of ± 20%. The concentration during the uptake phase was calculated as 206.1 mg/kg by the geometric mean. No test item was detected in control diet (without test item).
Analysis of Fish
In the uptake phase, the measured average concentrations in the fish were in the range of 0.092 - 0.181 mg/kg; the test item was not detected in fish of control group.
Analysis of Test Water
In the uptake phase, the test item was not detected in test water of control group and test group.
Lipid Content
At the beginning of the uptake phase, the average lipid contents (Ltish) of control and test group were 8.6% and 8.1 % respectively. At 24d, 28d and 30d of absorption phase, the average lipid contents (Ltish) of test group were 10.4-10.7%.
At the beginning and the end of uptake phase, the average lipid contents (Ltood) of diet were both 13.2%.
The Steady-State Biomagnification Factor (BMFss/ BMFssL)
During the uptake phase, the concentration in fish was in the range of 0.092 mg/kg to 0.181 mg/kg with slight changes, indicating that steady-state conditions had been reached after 7 days. Considering that the lipid content in fish from 24 day to 30 day was determined to be 10.5%, which was relatively stable, according to the mean measured concentration in fish and the mean lipid content from 24d to 30d, the BMFss value was calculated as 6.987E-4, the BMFssL value was 8. 789E-4. Given the extremely low BMF, the depuration step was not undertaken. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the test conditions, the steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFss) of test item to rare minnow was 6.987E-4 and the lipid-corrected steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFssL) was 8. 789E-4. Given the extremely low BMF, the depuration step was not undertaken.
- Executive summary:
Test method:
The purpose of the study was to determine the bioaccumulation potential of the test item, MLA-3202, in the rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus) by dietary exposure. This study design is appropriate when aqueous exposure is not practical due to the test substance being insoluble and unable to maintain measurable concentrations in water.
The test concentration of 200 mg/kg MLA-3202 was selected based on the results of the range finding test. The fish in the control group were exposed to an untreated diet. The test exposure system was a flow-through exposure system. Each group consisted of a 20 L fish tank which contained 50 fish. There were three tanks in the test group and one tank in the control. The test was conducted with a 30 day uptake phase and no depuration phase based on the finding from the range-finder test that uptake of MLA-3202 in the fish is insignificant.
During the uptake phase, the fish were fed and observed daily to evaluate the number of mortalities and the number of individuals exhibiting signs of abnormal behavior. The water quality was tested once a week. During the test, the control and the test diets were made each week. Samples of water, fish and diet were collected to measure the concentration of test item. Lipid contents in fish and diet were detected. Fish were randomly selected from each group to measure body length and body weight at the beginning and the end of the test to calculate the growth rate. The steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFss) and the lipid-corrected steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFssL) were calculated after the test.
Test results:
During the test, no death or other abnormal behaviors were observed in the control and test group.
Water quality: Total hardness and total organic carbon (TOC) of the test water were measured as 190 mg CaCQ3/L and 1.02 mg/L at the start of the test. The particulate matter was measured quarterly, with the value of 0.6±0.2mg/L. During the test, temperature was maintained at 22.2 - 23.8 °C, pH value was in a range of 7.64 - 7.96; and the dissolved oxygen concentration was in a range of 99.0% - 100.6% ASV.
For the nominal concentration of 200 mg/kg in the diet, the result of accuracy showed that the measured concentration was 91.5%-119% of the nominal, in the range of 80% - 120%. The result of homogeneity showed that the relative standard deviations (RSDs) in five batches of diets were 0.57% - 2.6%, less than 15%. The result of stability showed that the measured concentration of the diets was 81 . 5%-109% of the initial concentration, less than 20%. All the results above showed that the test item in the diets was well prepared and stable during the period of storage. The concentration during the uptake phase was calculated as 206.1 mg/kg by the geometric mean.
For the control group, the concentration of the test item in diets, fish and water were all lower than the LOQ. For the test group, the measured concentration in fish was 0.092 mg/kg - 0 .181 mg/kg, and in water it was lower than the LOQ.
Considering that the lipid content in fish from 24 days to 30 day was determined to be 10.5% , which was relatively stable, according to the mean measured concentration in fish and the mean lipid content from 24d to 30d, the BMFss value was calculated as 6.987E-4, the BMFssL value was 8. 789E-4.

Description of key information
The EPISuite BCFBAF Program predicted the BCF/BAF values for four representative components of the chemical. The model predicted similar Log KOW values as the measured Log KOWvalues which increases the reliability of the predicted BCF/BAF values to a moderate to high reliability.
The EPISuite BCFBAF Program predicted Log BCF values of less than 2.7 for all four representative components indicating the substance is non-bioaccumulative with predicted Log BAF values of 1.90 to 2.27.
In a specific OECD 305 dietary study, the BMFss value was calculated as 6.987E-4, the BMFssL value was 8. 789E-4. The substance has an extremely low bioaccumulation potential

Additional information
QSAR:
As the notified substance is a UVCB, its BCF/BAF was predicted from the chemical structures of its four most major components: C18:1 (oleic); C16:0 (palmitic); C18:2 (linoleic); and C18:0 (stearic), which together comprise approximately 73.6% of the overall UVCB substance. While the reliability of the predicted Log KOWvalues is low, the predicted Log KOWvalues are within range of the experimentally measured values of 5.3 to >7.2; suggesting the overall BCF/BAF predictions have a moderate to high reliability.
Test method:
The purpose of the study was to determine the bioaccumulation potential of the test item, MLA-3202, in the rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus) by dietary exposure. This study design is appropriate when aqueous exposure is not practical due to the test substance being insoluble and unable to maintain measurable concentrations in water.
The test concentration of 200 mg/kg MLA-3202 was selected based on the results of the range finding test. The fish in the control group were exposed to an untreated diet. The test exposure system was a flow-through exposure system. Each group consisted of a 20 L fish tank which contained 50 fish. There were three tanks in the test group and one tank in the control. The test was conducted with a 30 day uptake phase and no depuration phase based on the finding from the range-finder test that uptake of MLA-3202 in the fish is insignificant.
During the uptake phase, the fish were fed and observed daily to evaluate the number of mortalities and the number of individuals exhibiting signs of abnormal behavior. The water quality was tested once a week. During the test, the control and the test diets were made each week. Samples of water, fish and diet were collected to measure the concentration of test item. Lipid contents in fish and diet were detected. Fish were randomly selected from each group to measure body length and body weight at the beginning and the end of the test to calculate the growth rate. The steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFss) and the lipid-corrected steady-state biomagnification factor (BMFssL) were calculated after the test.
Test results:
During the test, no death or other abnormal behaviors were observed in the control and test group.
For the nominal concentration of 200 mg/kg in the diet, the result of accuracy showed that the measured concentration was 91.5%-119% of the nominal, in the range of 80% - 120%. The result of homogeneity showed that the relative standard deviations (RSDs) in five batches of diets were 0.57% - 2.6%, less than 15%. The result of stability showed that the measured concentration of the diets was 81 . 5%-109% of the initial concentration, less than 20%. All the results above showed that the test item in the diets was well prepared and stable during the period of storage. The concentration during the uptake phase was calculated as 206.1 mg/kg by the geometric mean.
For the control group, the concentration of the test item in diets, fish and water were all lower than the LOQ. For the test group, the measured concentration in fish was 0.092 mg/kg - 0 .181 mg/kg, and in water it was lower than the LOQ.
Considering that the lipid content in fish from 24 days to 30 day was determined to be 10.5% , which was relatively stable, according to the mean measured concentration in fish and the mean lipid content from 24d to 30d, the BMFss value was calculated as 6.987E-4, the BMFssL value was 8. 789E-4. Given the extremely low BMF, the depuration step was not undertaken.
