At pH values higher than pH 7 hydrolysis of lactylic esters may occur. This property led to a decrease of test substance in the medium within exposure period. - Results with reference substance (positive control):

- EC50 : 1.10 (1.03-1.18) mg/L - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Growth and growth inhibition were calculated for each test concentration relative to the control without addition of the product. Growth rate and yield were caluclated by using the computer program TOXEDO. The NOEC values were determined by use of computer program Dunnett`s procedure as the highest tested concentration, at which no significant inhibition is observed.
The concentrations of potassium dichromate inhibiting the growth rate were calculated by use of TOXEDO program and expressed as EC10 and EC 50 according to ISO standard. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Please refer to "Any other information on results incl. tables"
- Conclusions:
- Dermosoft decalact caused significant inhibition of the growth of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata at nominal concentrations of 5-45 mg/L. NOEC for the growth rate was 2.0 mg/L, EC 10 was 9.5 mg/L and EC 50 was > 45 mg/L based on nominal concentrations.
- Executive summary:
Dermosoft decalact was tested for inhibitory effects on the growth of the micro alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata according to OECD guideline 201.
No significant effect was observed on the growth of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata at concentrations up to 2.0 mg/L. Significant inhibition of the growth of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was observed at nominal concentrations of 5.0 - 45 mg/L.

Additional information
The toxicity to aquatic algae was investigated in a study conducted according to OECD guideline 201. Green algae of the species Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata were exposed to nominal test substance concentrations of 1.0 2.0, 5.0, 10, 20 and 45 mg/L. An analytical dose verification using HPLC was performed. Samples for analysis were taken at 0 h, 24 h, 48 h and at test termination after 72 h. A decline of in the test concentrations was observed between 24 and 48 hours. The time-weighted measured test concentrations were 2.0, 3.1, 5.8, 14.8 and 22.8 mg/L. The determined EC50 (72h) was > 22 mg/L (time weighted meas.). The EC50 (72 h) was 6 mg/L (time-weighted meas., NOEC (72 h): 2 mg/L).
