In the acute immobilisation test with Daphnia magna (STRAUS) the effect of the saturated solution of the test item was determined according to OECD 202 (2004) and Directive 92/69/EC Method C.2 (1992). The limit test was conducted under static conditions over 48 h from 2006-06-13 to 2006-06-15 at DR.U.NOACK-LABORATORIEN, Käthe-Paulus-Straße 1, D-31157 Sarstedt. 20 test organisms were exposed to the saturated solution and the control. Details of the analytical results are given in part 9. A reference test was carried out with potassium dichromate to determine the toxicity of the reference item. The EC50-value of the reference item of 1.95 mg/L after 24 h was within the prescribed concentration range of 1.0 to 2.5 mg/L according to AQS. Water quality parameters pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration, measured at 0 and 48 h, were determined to be within the acceptable limits. The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled.
At the saturated solution of the test item (Pigment Red 122) no biologically significant effect was determined.

Due to poor solubility in water, no analytical determination possible. - Details on test conditions:
- - The test medium is identical with ISO Test water (1) as specified in OECD 202
- Feeding: none
- Limit-test according to guideline (poor solubility in water):
The test medium was prepared as follows: Due to the low water solubility of the test item, a supersaturated dispersion of the test item with a loading rate of 100 mg/L was prepared by weighing 50.1 mg of the test item into 500 mL of test water. No auxiliary solvent or emulsifier was used. The test item was mixed into the test water as homogeneously as possible using ultrasonic treatment for 15 minutes and intense stirring. The dispersion was stirred for 96 hours at room temperature in the dark to dissolve a maximum concentration of the test item in the dispersion.
Then, the dispersion of the test item was filtered through a glass microfibre filter (Whatman GF/C, maximum pore size approximately 1.2 µm) just before the start of the test. The undiluted filtrate of the dispersion with the maximum concentration of dissolved test item was used as test medium.
The limit test was based on the results of a range-finding test and on pre-experiments to determine the solubility of the test item in test water (without GLP). - Reference substance (positive control):

- Details on results:
- The biological results are based on the loading rate of the test item of 100 mg/L. Analytical measurements of the actual test item concentration in the test medium were not possible.
In the control and in the undiluted filtrate with the loading rate of 100 mg/L, no immobilized test organisms were observed during the test period of 48 hours.
No remarkable observations were made concerning the appearance of the test medium. The test medium was a clear non-coloured solution throughout the whole test duration. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The latest result of the positive control test with potassium dichromate in 2004 (48-hour EC50: 0.83 mg/L, RCC Study no. 852355) showed that the toxic performance was valid and within the historical range of the RCC laboratory (from 1996 to 2004: 48-hour EC50: 0.55 - 1.1 mg/L).
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- not applicable
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- In a 48 hour chronic toxicity test (reliability category 1, compliant to GLP) on Daphnia manga Straus performed as a static limit test due to the low solubility of the submission substance, the NOEC (48 h) had been determined to be the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L. The EC50 is higher than the nominal limit concentration (100 mg/L). The acutal concentration could not be determined due to the low solubility of the submission substance in water and the salt concentration present in the ISO-test medium.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item to Daphnia magna was determined in a 48-hour static test according to the EU Commission Directive 92/69/EEC, Part C.2 (1992), and the OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals, No. 202, Part I (1984). A limit test was performed in accordance with the EU Commission Directive 92/69/EEC to demonstrate that the test item has no toxic effect on the test organisms up to the solubility limit of the test item in test water. Due to the low water solubility of the test item, a dispersion of the test item with a loading rate of 100 mg/L was continuously stirred at room temperature in the dark over 96 hours. Then, the dispersion was filtered. The undiluted filtrate with the maximum concentration of dissolved or very finely dispersed test item was used as the test medium. Additionally, a control was tested in parallel. No analytical determination of the test item concentration in the test medium was performed since the analysis of the test item in the filtrates - after comprehensive trials - proved impossible due to the very low solubility of the test item in test water and the matrix of the test water. In the control and in the undiluted filtrate with the loading rate of 100 mg/L, no immobilized test organisms were observed during the test period of 48 hours. The 48-hour NOEC (highest concentration tested without toxic effects after the exposure period of 48 hours) and the 48-hour EC0 of the test item to Daphnia magna were determined to be at the loading rate of 100 mg/L. The 48-hour NOEC and the 48 hour EC0 might even be higher but concentrations above the solubility limit of the test item in test water (loading rate of 100 mg/L) were not tested according to the EU Commission Directive. The 48-hour EC50 and the 48-hour EC100 were clearly higher than the solubility limit of the test item in test water (loading rate of 100 mg/L) since the test item had no toxic effect on the daphnids up to the highest test item concentration which could be dissolved or very finely dispersed in the test water under the conditions of the test. In conclusion, the test item had no acute toxic effects on Daphnia magna up to its solubility limit in test water under the present conditions of the test.

Description of key information
One Key study with the substance itself and twor studies with two read across substances are available. In the key study, at the saturated solution of the test item no biologically significant effect was determined.
Both results with the read across substances show the same result.
In a 48 hour toxicity test (reliability category 1, compliant to GLP) on Daphnia manga Straus performed as a static limit test due to the low solubility of the submission substance, the NOEC (48 h) had been determined to be the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L. The EC50 is higher than the nominal limit concentration (100 mg/L).
