RANGE-FINDING STUDY
A Range Finding study is said to have been conducted previous to the test in order to narrow down the range of concentrations in the test, however details were not reported.

- Conc. based on:

- Basis for effect:
- other: adult survival and reproduction (no. of offspring)
- Details on results:
- - Mortality of parent animals: see Table 1 for details.
- Time to first brood release or time to hatch: the data reported shows that offspring were produced by day 9 in all treatment groups. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- For chronic data NOECs were determined by comparing means and standard errors in control vs. treated.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- not specified
- Conclusions:
- A 28 day NOEC value of >= 25 mg/L (as active acid) has been determined for the effects of the test substance on adult survival and reproduction of D. magna.

Result expressed as nominal concentration. Properties of the
test substance and evidence from other studies (where
concentrations were
measured) indicate that nominal and measured concentrations are likely to be in good agreement.
Not enough information is reported on water quality, however the frequency of water renewals suggests the parameters to be in acceptable ranges.
Description of key information
There are no test data for ATMP-xNH4, however data have been read-across from ATMP-H and ATMP-xNa.

Additional information
- ATMP is present as ATMP-H or one of its ionised forms. The degree of ionisation depends upon the pH of the media and not whether ATMP (3-5K) salt, ATMP (3-5Na) salt, ATMP-H (acid form), or another salt was used for dosing.
- Disassociated potassium, sodium or ammonium cations. The amount of potassium or sodium present depends on which salt was dosed.
- It should also be noted that divalent and trivalent cations would preferentially replace the sodium or potassium ions. These would include calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+) and iron (Fe3+). These cations are more strongly bound by ATMP than potassium, sodium and ammonium. This could result in ATMP-dication (e.g. ATMP-Ca, ATMP-Mg) and ATMP-trication (e.g. ATMP-Fe) complexes being present in solution.
ATMP-xNH4 will dissociate when it is released into aqueous environments to yield ATMP and ammonia. No data is available for ATMP ammonium salts, therefore data are read-across from ATMP-H and ATMP-xNa.
A 28-day NOEC value of ≥25 mg active acid/L has been determined for the effects of the test substance on adult survival and reproduction of D. magna (Monsanto, 1976). The study represents the lowest reliable value available for this endpoint.
A study of unknown reliability determined a NOEC of 3 mg/L for the effects on ATMP-xNa to D. magna (Henkel, 1984). However the pattern of results was erratic and not enough information was provided in the report to determine the cause.
A 96-hour NOEC value of 96 mg active acid/L has also been determined for the effects of ATMP-H on the growth of the marine eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica (EG&G, 1977).
Ammonia: A 29-day NOEC value of 0.066 mg NH3-N/L has been determined for the effects of unionised ammonia on Deleatidium sp., reported in 'Environment Agency Proposed EQS for Water Framework Directive Annex VIII Substances: Ammonia (unionised) 2007' (EA, 2007).
ATMP-xNH4 will dissociate as it is released into the aquatic environment and it is therefore necessary to assess the hazard properties and derive PNECs for ATMP and ammonia separately.
For hazard classification, ATMP-xNH4 has been assessed based on the available aquatic data for the whole substance.
The influence of the ammonium salt is discussed in IUCLID Section 6.0 Ecotoxicological Information and Section 7.0 of the CSR.
The acid, sodium, potassium and ammonium salts in the ATMP category are freely soluble in water. The ATMP anion can be considered fully dissociated from its sodium, potassium or ammonium cations when in dilute solution. Under any given conditions, the degree of ionisation of the ATMP species is determined by the pH of the solution. At a specific pH, the degree of ionisation is the same regardless of whether the starting material was ATMP-H, ATMP.4Na, ATMP.7K or another salt of ATMP.
Therefore, when a salt of ATMP is introduced into test media or the environment, the following is present (separately):
In this context, for the purpose of this assessment, read-across of data within the ATMP Category is considered to be valid.
