Additional information
There is one study available, in which the short-term toxicity of the substance toward aquatic invertebrates was assessed according to the OECD guideline 202 and GLP.
In a semi-static test design, Daphnia magna was exposed to five concentrations in a geometric series with a dilution factor of 2 ranging from 2.50 to 0.156 mg/L test item for 48 h in sealed glass flasks without headspace. The test solutions were renewed after 24 h and the test item concentrations in the test vessels were analytically verified by GC-MS in fresh (0 and 24 h) and old (24 and 48 h) media.
The measured concentrations of the test item in fresh media at the start of the exposure and at renewal (0 and 24 h) were in the range of 50 to 92% of the nominal test item concentrations. The measured concentrations in old media at renewal and at the end of the test (24 and 48 h) were in the range of 0 to 65% of the nominal test item concentrations. Therefore, the effect concentrations were based on the geometric mean measured concentrations.
After 48 h, immobilization was observed and an EC50 (48 h) of 0.0436 mg/L was determined.
