The remaining test solutions (40, 16, 6.4 and 2.56 mg/L) were prepared using a 60% serial dilution procedure from the high concentration. Each concentration was prepared by adding 400 ml of the next higher concentration to a 1-L volumetric flask containing approximately 500 mL of ES media. The solutions were then brought to volume (1 L) with ES media and inverted several times.

Additional information
All available studies were performed according to OECD 201 and GLP with analytical monitoring of the test item concentration.
For the key study (M-001513-01-1) the freshwater species Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was exposed under static conditions (shaken cultures) for approximately 96 hours to the following nominal concentrations: Control, Buffered Control, 2.56, 6.4, 16.0, 40.0, 100 and Buffered 100.0 mg a.i./L. Mean measured concentrations were based on the recoveries of the test solutions on Days 0 and 4. The mean measured concentrations were 2.6, 6.4, 16.4, 41.4, 107 and 106 mg a.i./L. This represents a range of 100 to 107% of the nominal test concentrations. Based on regression calculations, cell density (standing crop) is the most sensitive endpoint to exposure to the test item. The 96-hour EC50 for cell density was 11.6 mg a.i./L. The 96-hour EC50 value for growth rate was 29.8 mg a.i./L and the NOEC for growth rate was 6.4 mg a.i./L.
The key study of the marine species Skeletonema costatum (M-122128-01-2) was exposed under static conditions (shaken cultures) for 96 hours to the following nominal concentrations: Control, 2.56, 6.4, 16.0, 40.0 and 100.0 mg a.i./L. Mean measured calculations were based on the recoveries of the test solutions on days 0 and 4. The mean measured concentrations were 2.53, 6.4, 16.4, 41.1 and 99.5 mg a.i./L. This represents a range of 99 to 103% of the nominal test concentrations. Based on regression calculations, cumulative biomass is the most sensitive endpoint to exposure to the test item. The 96-hour EC50 for cumulative biomass was 9.2 mg a.i./L. The 96-hour NOEC and LOEC were 6.4 mg a.i./L and 16.4 mg a.i./L, respectively for all endpoints. The 96-hour EC50 value for growth rate was 15.7 mg a.i./L and the NOEC for growth rate was 6.4 mg a.i./L.
