- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- The batch of the test material used was an amber liquid UVCB substance which was not completely soluble in test medium at the loading rates initially prepared. No correction was made for the purity/composition of the test material.
- Preparation of test solutions started with loading rates individually prepared at 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L. A two-day period of magnetic stirring was applied to ensure maximum dissolution of the test material in medium. The obtained mixtures were allowed to settle for approximately one day. Thereafter, the aqueous Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were collected by means of siphoning through glass wool and used as test concentrations. At the end of the preparation procedure, the test solutions prepared at the two lowest test concentrations were clear and colourless, while the test solution prepared at the limit concentration was slightly hazy and yellow. The highest test concentration in the final test was observed with a laser pen to check for the presence of Tyndall effect. No undissolved particles were observed.
- Any residual volumes were discarded. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna

INTERPRETATION
Acceptability of the Test
- In the control, no daphnids became immobilised or showed other signs of disease or stress, for example discolouration or unusual behaviour such as trapping at the surface of the medium.
- The dissolved oxygen concentration at the end of the test was ≥3 mg/L in control and test vessels.
Data Handling
- The average exposure concentrations were calculated as √(Ct=0 x Ct=48), being the geometric means of the concentrations of the test material measured in the samples taken at the start (Ct=0) and the end of the test (Ct=48). - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- Potassium dichromate
- Key result
- Duration:
- 48 h
- Dose descriptor:
- EC50
- Effect conc.:
- > 0.12 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- meas. (not specified)
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- mobility
- Details on results:
- MEASURED CONCENTRATIONS
- Samples taken from all test concentrations and the control were analysed. At the start of the test, the measured concentration at the highest WAF tested was 7.7 mg/L, which decreased below the Limit of Quantification (LOQ) at the end of the test and was estimated to be 0.0020 mg/L by extrapolation of the calibration curve. No clear test material related responses could be measured at the lower WAFs tested already at the start of the test. It should be noted that at the highest test solution, a floating layer of undissolved material was observed in all the test vessels throughout the test. This was supposedly caused by oversaturation.
- Based on these results, effect parameters were based on the average exposure concentration at the limit concentration, calculated to be 0.12 mg/L.
IMMOBILITY
- No immobility was observed in the control and at any of the test concentrations throughout the exposure period. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- No statistical analysis was performed.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the 48h-EC50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test material was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded an average exposure concentration of 0.12 mg/L being considered as the maximum soluble concentration of test material in test medium.
- Executive summary:
The short-term toxicity of the test material to aquatic invertebrates was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 202, under GLP conditions.
The objective of the study was to evaluate the test material for its ability to generate acute toxic effects on the mobility of Daphnia magna during an exposure period of 48 hours and, if possible, to determine the EC50 at 24 and 48 hours of exposure.
The batch of the test material tested was an amber liquid UVCB substance which was not completely soluble in test medium at the loading rates initially prepared. Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were individually prepared at loading rates ranging between 1.0 and 100 mg/L and used as test concentrations. A combined limit/range-finding test was performed. Twenty daphnids per group (5 per replicate, quadruplicate) were exposed to an untreated control and to a WAF prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L, in a limit test. In addition, ten daphnids per group (5 per replicate, duplicate) were exposed WAFs individually prepared at loading rates of 1.0 and 10 mg/L in the combined range-finding test. The total exposure period was 48 hours and samples for analytical confirmation of exposure concentrations were taken at the start and at the end of the test.
Samples taken from all test concentrations and the control were analysed. At the start of the test, the measured concentration at the highest WAF tested was 7.7 mg/L, which decreased below the Limit of Quantification (LOQ) at the end of the test and was estimated to be 0.0020 mg/L by extrapolation of the calibration curve. No clear test material related responses could be measured at the lower WAFs tested already at the start of the test. Based on these results, effect parameters were based on the average exposure concentration at the limit concentration, calculated to be 0.12 mg/L.
No immobility was observed in the control and at any of the test concentrations throughout the exposure period.
Under the conditions of this study, the 48h-EC50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test material was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded an average exposure concentration of 0.12 mg/L being considered as the maximum soluble concentration of test material in test medium.

Description of key information
Under the conditions of the study, the 48h-EC50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test material was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded an average exposure concentration of 0.12 mg/L being considered as the maximum soluble concentration of test material in test medium.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The short-term toxicity of the test material to aquatic invertebrates was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 202, under GLP conditions. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
The objective of the study was to evaluate the test material for its ability to generate acute toxic effects on the mobility of Daphnia magna during an exposure period of 48 hours and, if possible, to determine the EC50 at 24 and 48 hours of exposure.
The batch of the test material tested was an amber liquid UVCB substance which was not completely soluble in test medium at the loading rates initially prepared. Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were individually prepared at loading rates ranging between 1.0 and 100 mg/L and used as test concentrations. A combined limit/range-finding test was performed. Twenty daphnids per group (5 per replicate, quadruplicate) were exposed to an untreated control and to a WAF prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L, in a limit test. In addition, ten daphnids per group (5 per replicate, duplicate) were exposed WAFs individually prepared at loading rates of 1.0 and 10 mg/L in the combined range-finding test. The total exposure period was 48 hours and samples for analytical confirmation of exposure concentrations were taken at the start and at the end of the test.
Samples taken from all test concentrations and the control were analysed. At the start of the test, the measured concentration at the highest WAF tested was 7.7 mg/L, which decreased below the Limit of Quantification (LOQ) at the end of the test and was estimated to be 0.0020 mg/L by extrapolation of the calibration curve. No clear test material related responses could be measured at the lower WAFs tested already at the start of the test. Based on these results, effect parameters were based on the average exposure concentration at the limit concentration, calculated to be 0.12 mg/L.
No immobility was observed in the control and at any of the test concentrations throughout the exposure period.
Under the conditions of the study, the 48h-EC50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test material was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded an average exposure concentration of 0.12 mg/L being considered as the maximum soluble concentration of test material in test medium.
