- Details on sampling:
- - Duplicate samples (from each replicates) were taken (2 x ~2 mL) in plastic tubes at the beginning and at the end of the renewal periods from the control and at the applied test concentration level.
- After sampling, samples were frozen and kept approximately at -20 °C at the Test Facility. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- - Because the test material is very poorly soluble in water, a test solution was prepared using a saturated solution method according to the Guidance Document on Aquatic Toxicity Testing of Difficult Substances and Mixtures, OECD No. 23.
- A saturated test material solution (nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L) was prepared by dispersing/dissolving the amount of test material into the test medium (ISO Medium) two days before the start of the study. This solution was shaken for about 24 hours at approximately 30 °C and then equilibrated for about 24 hours at approximately 20 °C. The non-dissolved test material was removed by filtration through a fine (0.22 μm) filter to give the 100 % saturated solution.
- Note that the test material dissolved very slowly, hence although the duration of formulation procedure is relatively long for a molecule which in not highly stable, it was necessary to use a long saturation solution method to achieve maximal concentration.
- The test solution was prepared just before introduction of the Daphnia (start of treatments). As a Limit test was carried out, further dilution of stock solution was not performed. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM
- Breeding: The Daphnia are bred at the testing laboratory. The health of the stock animals is continuously monitored by visual daily checking. Abnormal behaviour or significant decrease of population is recorded.
- Age: Less than 24 h old at the beginning of the test.
- Feeding during test: No
ACCLIMATION
- Acclimation period: There was no acclimatisation because the water used was similar to the culture water. - Test type:
- semi-static
- Water media type:
- freshwater
- Limit test:
- yes
- Total exposure duration:
- 48 h
- Hardness:
- 247 mg/L (as CaCO3)
- Test temperature:

- pH:
- 7.24 – 7.71
- Dissolved oxygen:

Geometric mean measured concentration: 2.89 µg/L - Details on test conditions:
- TEST SYSTEM
- Test vessel: Glass beaker with a volume of 50 mL
- Material, size, headspace, fill volume: ~40 mL test solution/flask; 8 mL test solution/animal.
- Renewal rate of test solution (frequency/flow rate): The frequency of the water renewal periods was 24 hours.
- No. of organisms per vessel: 5
- No. of vessels per concentration: 4
- No. of vessels per vehicle control: 4
TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Reconstituted water (ISO medium, according to OECD 202) was used as dilution water for both the range finding and definitive tests. The same composition was used for breeding the test animals.
- Composition of ISO medium: Separate stock solutions of individual trace elements were first prepared in deionised water at the concentrations below. The medium was prepared of these different stock solutions, so it contained all trace elements (combined solution). 25 mL/L of each stock solution was added to deionised water to prepare the media.
- CaCl2·2H2O: 11.76 g/L
- MgSO4·7H2O: 4.93 g/L
- KCl: 0.23 g/L
- NaHCO3: 2.59 g/L
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: The pH of the test solution was not adjusted and not varied by more than 1.5 units in any one test. The pH was measured at the start and at the end of the renewal periods in each test vessel and was in the range of 7.24 – 7.71.
- Photoperiod: The test was carried out in 16-hour light and 8-hour dark cycle.
- Temperature: The water temperature was measured at the start and at the end of the renewal periods in each test vessel. The test temperature was in the range of 20.2 – 20.7 °C measured in the test vessels. The additionally measured temperature in the climate chamber was between 19.8 – 20.9 °C.
- Oxygen concentration: The dissolved oxygen concentration was measured in each test vessel at the start and at the end of the renewal periods and was in the range of 7.4 – 8.9 mg/L.
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED:
- The immobility or mortality of the Daphnia was determined by visual observation 24 and 48 hours after the start of the test. Those animals not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test beaker are considered to be immobile.
- The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility were determined at 24 and 48 hours.
- The water temperature, the oxygen concentrations and pH of the controls and the test material solution were measured at the beginning and at the end of the renewal periods.
RANGE-FINDING STUDY
- A concentration range-finding test was conducted to determine the approximate toxicity of the test material so that appropriate test concentrations could be selected for use in the definitive test. Ten daphnids (divided into two replicates) in each test concentration and control were exposed for 48 hours under semi-static conditions.
- Test concentrations: 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 % saturated solutions preparaed by appropriate dilution of the stock solution.
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study: Yes. Because no toxic response was observed during the preliminary concentration rangefinding test, a Limit Test was carried out using only one test concentration at the solubility level of the test material in the test medium (100 % saturated solution) and one control group in a semi-static system. The biological results are based on both of the nominal and measured geometric mean test material concentrations. - Reference substance (positive control):

- CONCENTRATIONS OF THE TEST MATERIAL
- Test concentration was analytically determined at the beginning and at the end of the renewal periods. Samples from the control were also analysed at the start and at the end of the renewal periods.
- The corresponding measured geometric mean test material concentration was: 2.89 μg/L.
- The biological results are based on both of the nominal and measured geometric mean test material concentrations.
IMMOBILISATION
- The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility were determined at the 24th and 48th hour (Table 1).
- In addition to immobility, no abnormal behaviour or appearance of test animals was detected. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The 24h EC50: 0.65 mg/L, (95 % confidence limits: 0.61 – 0.70 mg/L)
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Due to that 5 % immobilization was observed at the applied test concentration level and taking into account that a limit test was performed, immobilization in control and in treated group was analysed using 2 Sample t-Test (α = 0.05) by TOXSTAT software to compare means.
The EC50, NOEC, LOEC and EC100 values were determined directly from the raw data. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the test material had no toxic effect at saturation (2.89 μg/L, measured); the EC50 results and the LOEC are higher than the solubility level of the test material in the test medium.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test material to aquatic invertebrates was investigated in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 202, EU Method C.2., EPA OCSPP 850.1010, JMAFF 2-7-2-1 and other Japanese guidelines, under GLP conditions.
Acute toxicity of the test material on Daphnia magna was assessed in an Acute immobilisation test, over an exposure period of 48 hours in a semi-static test system.
Because no toxic response was observed during the preliminary range-finding test, a Limit Test was carried out using only one test concentration at the solubility level of the test material in the test medium (100 % saturated solution) and one control group in the definitive test.
The test concentration was analytically determined at the start and at the end of the renewal periods. The corresponding measured geometric mean test item concentration was: 2.89 μg/L. The biological results are based on both of the nominal and measured geometric mean test material concentrations.
Twenty animals, divided into four groups (glass beaker) of five animals each were used at the test concentration and for the control.
All validity criteria were met during this study.
Under the conditions of this Daphnia magna acute immobilisation study the observed endpoints for the effect of the test material were the following:
The 24h and 48h EC50 value: > 100 % saturated solution (nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L; 2.89 μg/L, measured).
The 48h EC100 value: > 100 % saturated solution (nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L; 2.89 μg/L, measured).
The 48h No-Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC): 100 % saturated solution (nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L; 2.89 μg/L, measured).
The 48h Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC): 100 % saturated solution (nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L; 2.89 μg/L, measured).
Under the conditions of this study, the test material had no toxic effect at saturation (2.89 μg/L, measured); the EC50 results and the LOEC are higher than the solubility level of the test material in the test medium.
