Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
In this 48-hour acute toxicity test on Daphnia magna, the obtained results showed that the test item Acetylglycyrrhetinic acid/Q had no toxic effects on the mobility of the daphnids up to the limit concentration of 100 mg/L.
All validity criteria were met. The results are based on the nominal test item concentration (100 mg/L) and were determined directly from the raw data.
