- Conclusions:
- Based on the test results, the 96-hour LC50 of the test item for Zebrafish (Danio rerio) was determined to be 4.72 mg test item/L based on nominal test concentrations. The LC0 was determined to be 2.1 mg test item/L and the LC100 was determined to be 10.1 mg test item/L, both values also based on nominal test concentrations.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item to Zebrafish (Danio rerio) in a 96-hour semi-static test was determined according to OECD 203. Juvenile Zebrafish (Danio rerio) were exposed in a semi-static test to aqueous test media containing the test item at various concentrations under defined conditions. The recorded effects were mortality and sublethal effects on the fish. This study encompassed 6 treatment groups (5 dose rates of the test item, control) each containing 7 individuals. The acute toxicity to unfed juvenile Zebrafish (Danio rerio) was determined in an aerated, semi-static, 96-hour test. The test fish were observed after approximately 2, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours of test duration for sublethal effects and mortality. Dead fish were removed at least once daily and discarded.
In the control and the nominal test concentration of 2.1 mg test item/L, all fish survived until the end of the experiment and no signs of intoxication occurred. At the nominal test concentration of 4.6 mg test item/L 2 fish were dead after 48 hours of test duration and 5 fish were observed mainly at the bottom of the aquarium after 72 hours in addition. At test end after 96 hours of exposure 3 fish were dead at nominal 4.6 mg test item/L and the remaining 4 fish were observed mainly at the bottom of the aquarium showing tumbling during swimming. At the nominal test concentration of 10.1 mg test item/L all fish were dead after 24 hours of test duration. At the nominal test concentration of 22.3 mg test item/L 4 fish were observed mainly at the bottom of the aquarium and 2 fish were dead after 2 hours of test duration. After 24 hours all fish were dead at nominal 22.3 mg test item/L. At the highest test concentration of nominal 49 mg test item/L all fish were dead after 2 hours of test duration.
The quantification of the test item was performed using the determination of the Total Organic Carbon (TOC-method). The purpose of the analytical part of this study was to verify the concentrations of the test item in the test medium. At the start of the test just before introduction of the fish 94 % of the nominal test concentrations were found (average of the two highest test concentrations; all other values were below the Limit of Quantification). In the aged test media 98 % of the nominal values were determined (average of the two highest test concentrations; all other values were below the Limit of Quantification). Thus, during the test period of 96 hours the fish were exposed to a mean of 96 % of nominal. Therefore, all reported results are related to nominal concentrations of the test item.
Based on the test results, the 96-hour LC50 of the test item for Zebrafish (Danio rerio) was determined to be 4.72 mg test item/L based on nominal test concentrations. The LC0 was determined to be 2.1 mg test item/L and the LC100 was determined to be 10.1 mg test item/L, both values also based on nominal test concentrations.
