The test solution was prepared by dissolving 100 mg of the test substance in 100 ml of potable water (passed through reverse osmosis system) with 1 hr.continuous stirring for achieving test concentrations of 1g/L. The nominal concentration selected for the experiment were 0.3125mg/L,0.625mg/L,1.25mg/L,2.5mg/L,5mg/Land test fish were exposed to these concentration for 96 hours. After 96hrs of exposure LC0, LC50 and LC100 was observed.
The lethal concentrations LC50 was determine to be >0.3125 mg/L but <0.625 mg/L
LC0 (96 hours) (highest loading at which no mortality was observed) = 0.3125 mg/L
LC50 (96 hours) Experimental = >0.3125 mg/L but <0.625 mg/L
LC100 (96 hours) (lowest loading at which 100% mortality was observed) = 0.625 mg/L
