Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Sampling method: Duplicate samples from the freshly prepared test media (containing algae) of all test concentrations and from the control were taken at the start of the test.
For the determination of the stability of the test item under the test conditions and of the maintenance of the test item concentrations during the test period, duplicate samples from the test media of all test concentrations and the control (containing algae) were taken at the end of the test (after the 72 hours test period) by pouring together the contents of the test beakers of each treatment.
All samples were diluted by a factor of two with acetonitrile.
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: All samples remained undiluted until sample preparation. All samples were stored in a freezer (≤ - 20 °C), protected from light until analysis was performed.
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION: The test item was not well soluble in test water. In this study, only the inhibitory effects of dissolved test item was tested and thus no concentrations above the solubility limit of the test item in test water were tested. Therefore, a supersaturated stock solution of nominal 100 mg test item/L was prepared by suspending 94.0 mg test item in 940 mL test water for preparing the test concentrations. The stock suspension was stirred for approx. 24 hours at room temperature in the dark to dissolve as much test item as possible. Then, non-dissolved fractions of the test item were separated from the test medium by membrane filtration (0.45 µm cellulose acetate filter). The solution with dissolved test item was used as the test medium of the highest test concentration and to prepare the desired 1:3.125, 1:10, 1:31.25 and 1:100 dilutions.
The test media were prepared just before introduction of the algae (= start of the test).
Appearance of the Test Item in Test Medium: There were no remarkable observations.
Test concentration:
A filtrate with a loading rate of 100 mg test item/L and dilutions of 1:3.125, 1:10, 1:31.25 and 1:100, and a control, corresponding to following arithmetic mean measured concentrations of the test item:
27.0, 8.31, 2.56, 0.806 and 0.275 mg test item/L, and a control.
In the control, test water was used without addition of the test item.

Test conditions
- Hardness:
- Calculated water hardness of the test water: 0.24 mmol/L (= 24 mg/L)
as CaCO3 - Test temperature:
- Water temperature was: 21.7 to 22.6 °C
(target: 21 – 24 °C, controlled at ± 2 °C). - pH:
- The pH was measured in all test item concentrations and the control at the start (from excess solutions of each test medium) and the end of the test (via pooling of replicate test media; target pH: 8.1 ± 0.1 at test start in untreated test water).
pH value in the control at test start: 8.0,
pH value in the control at test end: 8.4
pH values in the test item treatments at test start: 8.0 to 8.1,
pH values in the test item treatments at test end: 8.2 to 8.5 - Nominal and measured concentrations:
- Nominal concentration:
A filtrate with a loading rate of 100 mg test item/L and dilutions of 1:3.125, 1:10, 1:31.25 and 1:100, and a control, corresponding to following arithmetic mean measured concentrations of the test item:
27.0, 8.31, 2.56, 0.806 and 0.275 mg test item/L, and a control. - Details on test conditions:
- Test Vessels: Erlenmeyer flasks of 50 mL volume with nominal 50 mL of test medium loosely covered with watch glasses.
Introduction of Algae: The test was started (0 hours) by inoculation of a biomass of nominal 5000 algal cells per mL test medium. These cells were taken from an exponentially growing pre-culture, which was set up 4 days prior to the test start under the same conditions as in the test.
Replicates: The test was performed with three replicates per test concentration and six replicates in the control.
Test Procedure: The test units were continuously stirred by magnetic stirrers. The flasks were incubated in a water bath, were placed in a random order and were repositioned each day to minimize differences in test conditions.
Blanks: Additionally, one replicate of each test concentration and of the control was prepared without algae to provide a blank for the spectrophotometric measurements. The additional replicates were incubated under the same conditions as described above. The blank values were subtracted from the absorption measured in the samples containing algae in order to eliminate absorption caused by the test item.
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
Light Regime: Continuous illumination
Light Intensity: The light intensity was measured once during the test at 6 positions distributed over the experimental area at the surface of the test media (target: 4400 – 8800 lux ± 15 % of mean value).
Mean light intensity: 4997 lux (range: 4530 to 5440 lux)
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
Determination of the Cell Density: The cell density on each observation time was determined by spectrophotometric measurement. Therefore, defined volumes of the algal suspensions from all replicates and from the blanks were sampled after 24, 48 and 72 hours of exposure, and were not replaced. The algal cell densities were calculated by subtracting the absorption of the blanks, from each of the measured absorption of the test media (with algae) at a wavelength of 685 nm.
Based on the counted cell densities and the absorption from an algal suspension and its dilutions, a linear regression was performed for the calculation of the cell densities of the replicates during the test.
No pre-experiments were performed. - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- For the evaluation of the quality of the algae and the experimental conditions the reference item potassium dichromate is tested at least twice a year to demonstrate satisfactory test conditions.

- Growth Inhibition: After 72 hours the inhibition of yield ranged from 11.4 to 99.8 % and the inhibition of growth rate ranged from 2.7 to 97.7 %.
Signs of Phytotoxicity evaluated by Microscopic Observations: The microscopic examination of the shape of the algal cells after 72 hours of test duration did not show any difference between the algae that had been growing up to a loading rate of 100 mg test item/L and the algal cells in the control. Thus, the shape of the algal cells was not obviously affected up to this test concentration, the highest concentration tested. - Results with reference substance (positive control):

- Conclusions:
- The influence of the test item on the growth of the freshwater green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was assessed in a static concentration-response test. The 72-hour EyC50 was calculated to be 0.968 mg test item/L and the 72-hour ErC50 value was calculated to be 1.80 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOEyC was determined to be < 0.275 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOEyC was 0.275 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOErC was determined to be 0.275 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOErC was 0.806 mg test item/L.
The initial concentrations and the maintenance of the exposure concentrations during the test were verified in the analytical part. All reported results refer to arithmetic mean concentrations, since the test item concentrations were not within ± 20 % of the nominal concentrations during the test. - Executive summary:

Test Design: This study encompassed 6 treatment groups (5 dose rates of the test item and a control) with three replicates per test concentration and six replicates for the control. At test start 50 mL of the test media were inoculated with nominal 5000 algal cells per mL test medium and defined volumes of the algal suspensions were sampled after 24, 48 and 72 hours for determination of cell densities by spectrophotometric measurement.
