Acute Immobilisation test in Daphnia magna was performed in compliance with the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Section 2, No. 202, "Daphnia Sp., Acute Immobilisation Test" . N-(4-{bis[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene}cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene)-N-methylmethanaminium chloride was tested for acute toxic effects on the swimming capabilities of Daphnia magna employing a static test procedure.
In the main study, six groups of daphnids, each comprising 5 daphnids per replicate, were exposed to the test article at concentration levels of 0.025 mg, 0.05 mg, 0.1 mg, 0.2 mg, 0.4 mg and 0.8 mg/L. Observations were made for immobilisation at 24 hours and 48 hours of treatment.
A concurrent blank control was also run simultaneously. Potassium Dichromate was employed as a positive control and tested at the concentration of 0.4 mg, 0.63 mg and 1 mg/L.
The animals were observed for immobility after 24 hours and 48 hours of exposure. Those daphnids which were unable to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test container were considered to be immobile.
The rates of immobilisation observed at 24 hours were 0%, 0%, 0%, 10%, 25% and 75% at the test concentrations of 0.025 mg, 0.05 mg, 0.1 mg, 0.2 mg, 0.4 mg and 0.8 mg/L respectively.
The rates of immobilisation observed at 48 hours were 0%, 0%, 10%, 25%, 55% and 85% at the test concentrations of 0.025 mg, 0.05 mg, 0.1 mg, 0.2 mg, 0.4 mg and 0.8 mg/L respectively.
The Positive control, Potassium Dichromate induced immobilisation in 20%, 50% and 80% of the exposed daphnids at 24 hours and 25%, 65% and 100% immobilization at 48 hours at the concentrations of 0.4 mg, 0.63 mg and 1 mg/L respectively. No immobilisation was observed in blank control group.
The acute immobilisation EC50value of N-(4-{bis[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene}cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene)-N-methylmethanaminium chloride to Daphnia magna at 24 hour exposure period was found to be 0.53 mg/L with fiducial limits between 0.41 to 0.69 mg/L at 95% confidence level.
The acute immobilisation EC50value of N-(4-{bis[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene}cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene)-N-methylmethanaminium chloride to Daphnia magna at 48 hour exposure period was found to be 0.35 mg/L with fiducial limits between 0.24 to 0.50 mg/L at 95% confidence level.
On the basis of EC50 value obtained it can be concluded that the substance N-(4-{bis[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene}cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene)-N-methylmethanaminium chloride is toxic to the aquatic environment and can be considered as "Aquatic Acute 1" as per CLP regulation.
