- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity to Daphnia magna was carried out according to OECD TG 202 Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test and EU Method C.2 guidelines. The study was conducted in a closed system (sealed glass flasks) without headspace under semi-static conditions and under light exclusion over a period of 48 hours with five concentration levels of the test item in the range of 6.25 to 100.0 mg/L prepared with dilution water in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2. To reduce losses of the test item, the study was conducted under semi-static conditions in under diffuse light conditions and in a closed system. A stock solution of 100.0 mg/L was prepared with ISO test water (according to OECD 202, Annex 3), with a magnetic stirrer at approximately 1100 rpm for one hour and was freshly prepared at both exposure intervals (0 and 24 hours). Further test concentrations were prepared by diluting the stock solution of 100 mg/L with dilution water. The tested solutions were clear throughout the exposure period. Twenty daphnids were exposed to each concentration level and the control. The test solutions were renewed after 24 hours. For this purpose, a second set of test vessels was filled with the freshly prepared test solutions and the daphnids were transferred by pipette. The concentrations of the test item were analytically verified via GC-MS at the start (0 and 24 hours) and at the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours) in all relevant concentration levels and the control. The measured concentrations of the test item at the start of the exposure intervals (0 and 24 h) were in the range of 90 to 111 % of the nominal values. At the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 h), the measured concentrations of the test item were in the range of 91 to 109 % of the nominal values. The measured test item concentrations were all within ± 20% of the nominal concentrations. Indicating that the test item concentrations were successfully maintained for the duration of the exposure. Therefore, the EC50-values were based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations of test item. The water quality parameters (i.e. pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration), measured at the start (0 and 24 hours) and at the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours), were within the acceptable limits. The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled. The 48h-EC50 was 22.8 mg/L (C.I: 19.7 – 25.4 mg/L) based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations of the test item in the test system.

For this purpose, a second set of test vessels was filled with the freshly prepared test solutions and the daphnids were transferred by pipette. The concentrations of the test item were analytically verified via GC-MS at the start (0 and 24 hours) and at the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours) in all relevant concentration levels and the control. The measured concentrations of the test item at the start of the exposure intervals (0 and 24 h) were in the range of 90 to 111 % of the nominal values. At the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 h), the measured concentrations of the test item were in the range of 91 to 109 % of the nominal values. The measured test item concentrations were all within ± 20% of the nominal concentrations. Indicating that the test item concentrations were successfully maintained for the duration of the exposure. Therefore, the EC50-values were based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations of test item. The water quality parameters (i.e. pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration), measured at the start (0 and 24 hours) and at the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours), were within the acceptable limits. The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled. The 48h-EC50 was 22.8 mg/L (C.I: 19.7 – 25.4 mg/L) based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations of the test item in the test system.
