Preparation of the Test Item:
The test medium (reconstituted water and test material) was freshly prepared. Therefore, the calibrated flask with test medium was treated in an ultrasonic device for 1 hour. Subsequently, the preparation was stirred with a magnetic stirrer for further 23 hours. The formulation was then passed through a single use syringe filter (pore size 0.2 µm). The filtrate was used for the study. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- Species: Daphnia magna Straus
Culture conditions: The clone is bred in the test laboratories. Parental daphnids are used for reproduction until they are about 6 weeks old. Thereafter, they are replaced by neonates. Daphnids are kept individually in 100 mL glass vessels containing approximately 60 mL reconstituted water (ELENDT M4 medium) at a water temperature of 20 ± 2 °C and a 16-hour light and 8-hour dark regime to ensure similar conditions as in the experiment. Offspring are removed from the vessels at least twice per week.
Feeding: The parental daphnids are fed ad libitum with unicellular green algae Desmodesmus subspicatus three times per week.
Age: Offspring less than 24 hours old were used for the study.

- EXPOSURE:
The study was performed in an air-conditioned room. At the start of the experimental phase, 5 daphnids were placed into test vessels with 10 mL of reconstituted water (4 vessels / control group) or test medium (4 vessels / test material group). The daphnids were not fed, and the control medium and test medium were not aerated during the test.
The test was performed as a static test in open vessels.
The duration of exposure was 48 hours. During the exposure period, the mobility of the daphnids was assessed daily, i.e. after 24 and 48 hours.
NO. OF DAPHNIDS:
Control Group: 20 daphnids
100 mg/L: 20 daphnids
CONCENTRATION(S)
In a pre-test no immobilization was observed at a concentration of 100 mg/L under open static conditions. Therefore, the solution of a nominal test item concentration of 100 mg/L was tested in the present study.
For the control, reconstituted water (ELENDT M4 medium) was used.
VEHICLE
Reconstituted water (ELENDT M4 medium) was used as vehicle.

Objective
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the test item on the immobilization of Daphnia magna.
Study Design
Juvenile daphnids were exposed to a nominal test item concentration of 100 mg/L (limit test) in an open static system. 20 daphnids, divided into four replicates, each with five animals were used in the test item group and the control group. The daphnids were observed for immobilization after 24 and 48 hours of exposure.
Results
The test material concentration in the reconstituted water was not quantified at the start and the end of this study due to the low water solubility (0.0028 mg/L). Because of the low water solubility, the compound cannot be detected with standard analytical methods. The development of an analytical method with a sufficiently low detection and quantification limit is complex. Due to the absence of any adverse effects at the saturation concentration, the study was performed without analytical concentration verification.
No effect on the mobility of the daphnia was observed at a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L.
For the test itemthe following EC50 values were determined:
EC50 (24h) >0.0028 mg/L (nominal >100 mg/L)
EC50 (48h) >0.0028 mg/L (nominal >100 mg/L)
Conclusion
The test item dissolved in reconstituted water, was tested in an open static test system. An aqueous solution of 100 mg/L of the test material revealed no aquatic toxicity in the test system. The 24 hour and 48 hour EC50 exceeded the maximum solubility of the test material in reconstituted water (EC50 > 100 mg/L).
