- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity within 48-hour Benzenesulphonic acid, C14-24 branched / linear alkyl derivative, calcium salt (CAS 115733-09-0) to Daphnia magna was investigated under static conditions in accordance to US EPA Guideline OTS 797 -1300 (Ward, 1993). Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were prepared, based on the intrinsic properties, i.e. low water solubility. The waterflea was exposed to the test substance at nominal concentrations of 100, 300 and 1000 mg/L WAF. A control group was also included. Mortality, immobilisation and sublethal effects were observed daily. After 24 h, no immobilised or dead organisms were observed. At the end of the experiment, 5 %, 0 %, 20 % and 5 % immobilisation were reported for the control, 100, 300 and 1000 mg/L WAF, respectively. Therefore, the test substance (CAS 115733 -09 -0) is considered as non-toxic to daphnids at WAF loading rates up to 1000 mg/L. The EC50(48h) is > 1000 mg/L WAF.

- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: An amount of test material (250 mg) was added to the surface of 2.5 litres of reconstituted water in a 3 litre glass beaker. The test solution was stirred for 24 hours using a magnetic stirrer using a stirring rate such that a slight dimple was formed on the surface. After stirring the mixture was allowed to stand for 1 hour. A wide bore glass tube, covered at one end with Nescofilm was submerged into the vessel, sealed end down, to a depth of 5 cm for from the bottom of the vessel. A length of Tygon tubing was inserted into the glass tube and pushed through the Nescofilm seal. The aqueous phase was removed by mid-depth siphoning (the first 75-100 mL discarded).

Additional information
General considerations
For the substance itself, no experimental data are available. The following read-across substances were used to fulfil the endpoint of short-term toxicity to Daphnia magna: Calcium sulfonate read-across substance (CAS 115733-09-0) and calcium sulfonate read across substance (CAS 61789-86-4). Investigations concerning toxicity in marine invertebrates were not performed. For the detailed procedure of the read-across principle and justifications, please refer to the separate Read-Across Statement attached to this Chemical Safety Report (Chemservice S.A., 2018).
Acute toxicity to freshwater invertebrates
Two key studies are available to characterise acute toxic effects of the calcium sulfonate test substance towards aquatic invertebrates. Based on the intrinsic properties of the used substances, Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were prepared for testing. Daphnia magna was exposed to the test substance for a duration of 48 h, whereby mortality, immobilisation as well as sublethal effects were recorded daily.
In the first key study, the toxicity of the calcium sulfonate read-across substance (CAS 115733-09-0) under static conditions was investigated by Ward (1993) in accordance to US EPA Guideline OTS 797 -1300. Daphnids were exposed to control and test chemical at nominal concentrations of 100, 300 and 1000 mg/L WAF for 48 hours. After 24 h, no immobilised or dead organisms were observed. At the end of the experiment, 5 %, 0 %, 20 % and 5 % immobilisation were reported for the control, 100, 300 and 1000 mg/L WAF, respectively. Therefore, the test substance is considered as non-toxic to daphnids at WAF loading rates up to 1000 mg/L. The EC50 (48h) is > 1000 mg/L WAF.
In the second key study, performed with Sulphonic acids, petroleum, calcium salts (CAS 61789-86-4), Daphnia magna were exposed also under static conditions for 48 hours (Goodband, 2005b). Beside control, daphnids were exposed to a single nominal test substance concentration of 100 mg/L WAF for 48 hours. Immobilisation and sublethal effects were observed daily. No immobilisation was observed in any daphnids at 100 mg/L nominal WAF loading rate. The EL50(48h) is considered as > 100 mg/L.
Conclusion:
No toxic effects observed in both acute studies with daphnids even at the highest concentration levels tested.
