- Executive summary:
The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of the test item on the mobility of Daphnia magna according to OECD 202 (2004). The study was performed under semi-static conditions (with a renewal of the test solutions after 24 hours) over a period of 48 hours. Five WAF's (Water Accommodated Fractions) of the test item prepared individually at loading levels in the range of 0.342 to 8.00 mg/L in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2.2. All WAFs were visually clear throughout the exposure period. The dispersions were shaken for 24h with 20 rpm at room temperature.
Twenty daphnids (divided into 4 replicates with 5 daphnids each) were exposed to each WAF and the control.
Specific chemical analysis was performed to demonstrate consistent preparation of the WAFs and stability during the test. The measured concentrations of the test item based on two main constituents in the old media (24 and 48 hours) were in the range of 62 to 123% of the initially measured concentrations. This means, that the test item was sufficiently stable during the exposure.
The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled.
Based on the nominal loadings of the test item, the 48 hour-EL50 for Daphnia magna was 4.31 mg/L (95% confidence limits: 1.86 - 7.98 mg/L). The NOEL after 48 hours was 1.65 mg/L.

Additional information
The key study was performed under semi-static conditions (with a renewal of the test solutions after 24 hours) in a closed system without headspace over a period of 48 hours with five WAF (Water Accommodated Fractions) of the test item prepared individually at loading levels in the range of 0.342 to 8.00 mg/L in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2.2. Twenty daphnids (divided into 4 replicates with 5 daphnids each) were exposed to each WAF and the control. Based on the nominal loadings of the test item, the 48 hour-EL50 for Daphnia magna was 4.31 mg/L (95% confidence limits: 1.86 - 7.98 mg/L). The NOEL after 48 hours was 1.65 mg/L.
