Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- Duplicate samples from the freshly prepared test medium of the only test concentration and the control were taken at the start of the test.
For the determination of the stability of the test item under the test conditions and of the maintenance of the test item concentration during the test period, duplicate samples from the test medium of the only test concentration and the control were collected at the end of the test (after 48 hours). Additional samples of the control were taken at test start and test end without any sample treatment.
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- Dosage of Test Item: The test item is not well soluble in test medium. To avoid physical effects of undissolved test item on the daphnids, no concentrations above the solubility limit of the test item in test water was tested.
Therefore, a supersaturated stock solution of the test item of nominal 100 mg test item/L was prepared by suspending 100.0 mg test item in 1000 ml test water. The test solution was carefully stirred for 48 hours in the dark to dissolve as much of the test item as possible. After stirring followed a 3 hours settling period to allow phase separation, the aqueous phase, i.e. the water accommodated fraction, was carefully extracted from below the water surface and used as the test medium.
The test media was prepared just before introduction of the daphnids (= start of the test).
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- Species: Daphnia magna (Straus), clone 5
Age at Test Start: From 3.25 to 21 hours old
Sex: Female
Origin: The daphnids introduced in the test were taken from ibacon's in house laboratory culture.
Breeding Conditions: The daphnids were bred in the laboratories of ibacon under similar temperature and light conditions as used in the test. The cultivation of the parental daphnids was performed in Elendt M4 medium (see 6.5). The test organisms were not first brood progeny. The daphnids in the stock culture were fed at least on all working days with green algae (Desmodesmus subspicatus) freshly grown in the laboratories of ibacon.

- Limit test:
- yes
- Total exposure duration:
- 48 h
Test conditions
- Hardness:
- Water Hardness: 2.5 mmol/L (= 250 mg/L) as Calcium Carbonate
- Test temperature:
- 20 °C at test start;
20 °C at test end - pH:
- 8.2 at test start;

- Due to the low water solubility limit of the test item a water accommodated fraction (WAF) of a supersaturated stock solution of nominal 100 mg test item/L was tested. Thus, no concentrations above the solubility limit of the test item in the used test water was tested. Additionally, a control was tested in parallel.

Oxygen and Water Temperature:
The water temperature, pH-values and dissolved oxygen concentrations were determined at test start and test end in each treatment group.

20 °C at test end
pH-Values: 8.2 at test start;
8.0 at test end; and thus the pH-value did not vary by more than 1.5 units
Dissolved Oxygen Concentration: 8.8 to 9.0 mg/L at test start;
8.7 to 8.8 mg/L at test end
Light Regime: 16 h light : 8 h dark
Light Intensity: The light intensity was 420 to 590 lux (measured once during the test). - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- For the evaluation of the quality of the Daphnia clone and the consistency of the experimental conditions, the reference item potassium dichromate is tested at least twice a year to demonstrate satisfactory test conditions.

- Details on results:
- After 48 hours of exposure no immobilisation of the test animals was observed in the control and the only test item concentration with a loading rate of nominal 100 mg test item/L.
- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- In the most recent test with the reference item potassium dichromate performed in September 2016 (study code 88296220) the EC50 after 24 hours was determined to be 0.959 mg test item/L, indicating that the sensitivity of the daphnids was consistent with the level proposed by the OECD 202 guideline (EC50-24 h between 0.6 and 2.1 mg potassium dichromate/L).
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- No statistical analysis was performed.
The EC50 could not be calculated due to the absence of toxicity of the test item and was determined to be higher than the highest tested nominal concentration. The NOEC and the LOEC were determined directly from the raw data.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Control Immobilisation Rate was 0 % and furthermore no daphnid showed signs of disease or stress. Dissolved Oxygen Concentration was above or equal 8.7 mg O2/L in the control and test vessels at the end of the test.
- Conclusions:
- The toxic effect of the test item Emulsogen TO to Daphnia magna was assessed in a static limit test. The 48-hour NOEC was determined to be ≥ 100 mg test item/L. The 48-hour LOEC was determined to be > 100 mg test item/L and the 48-hour EC50 value was determined to be > 100 mg test item/L. All values refer to nominal concentrations, which was the loading rate of the only tested concentration.
The quantification of the test item Emulsogen TO in the test samples was performed using total organic carbon measurement (TOC).
The organic carbon analysis showed that the organic carbon concentrations did not decrease over the course of the test. The data was not used to calculate test item recoveries. The report is therefore based on nominal test concentrations. - Executive summary:
Title: Emulsogen TO: Acute Toxicity to Daphnia magna in a Static 48-hour Immobilisation Limit Test
Purpose:
The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of the test item Emulsogen TO on the mobility of Daphnia magna. For this purpose, young daphnids (< 24 hours old) were exposed in a static test for 48 hours to the highest concentration which can be dissolved in test water under defined conditions for 48 hours. The recorded effects were the mobility of the daphnids after 24 and 48 hours. The test method of application and the test system are recommended by the test guidelines and Daphnia magna is the recommended test species. The purpose of the analytical part of this study was to verify the concentration of the test item in the test medium.

Material and Methods
Test Item: Emulsogen TO; batch no.: DEB2 207167; purity: 99.5 % (w/w), according to certificate of analysis
Test Species: Daphnia magna, clone 5; 3.25 to 21 hours old
Source: The daphnids introduced in the test were taken from ibacon's in-house laboratory culture.
Test Design: This study encompassed two treatment groups (one test item concentration with a loading rate of nominal 100 mg test item/L, and one control) each containing 20 individuals. The mobility of the daphnids was determined in a static 48-hour test by visual observation after 24 and 48 hours.
Endpoints: Number of immobile organisms after 24 and 48 hours
Test Concentration: Due to the low water solubility limit of the test item a water accommodated fraction (WAF) of a supersaturated stock solution of nominal 100 mg test item/L was tested. Thus, no concentrations above the solubility limit of the test item in the used test water was tested. Additionally, a control was tested in parallel.
Test Conditions: Water temperature: 20 °C; pH value: 8.0 to 8.2; dissolved oxygen concentration: 8.7 to 9.0 mg/L; photoperiod: 16 h light - 8 h dark; light intensity: 420 to 590 lux; and thus were within the ranges requested by guideline OECD 202
Results
After 48 hours of exposure no immobilisation of the test animals was observed in the control and the only test item concentration with a loading rate of nominal 100 mg test item/L.
Conclusion: The toxic effect of the test item Emulsogen TO to Daphnia magna was assessed in a static limit test. The 48-hour NOEC was determined to be ≥ 100 mg test item/L. The 48-hour LOEC was determined to be > 100 mg test item/L and the 48-hour EC50 value was determined to be > 100 mg test item/L. All values refer to nominal concentrations, which was the loading rate of the only tested concentration. The quantification of the test item Emulsogen TO in the test samples was performed using total organic carbon measurement (TOC).The organic carbon analysis showed that the organic carbon concentrations did not decrease over the course of the test. The data was not used to calculate test item recoveries. The report is therefore based on nominal test concentrations.
This study is classified as acceptable and satisfies the guideline requirements for an acute toxicity study with freshwater invertebrates.
