- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- All statistical analyses were performed using SAS software. The NOEC values, based on cell density, area under the growth curve, and growth rate, were estimated using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) procedure and a one-tailed Dunnett's test. The alternate hypothesis was the mean for the growth parameter was reduced in comparison to the control mean. Prior to the Dunnett's test, a Shapiro-Wilk's test and a Levene's test were conducted to test for normality and homogeneity of variance, respectively, over treatments at each time point. If the results from the Shapiro-Wilk's and Levene's tests indicated normality and insignificant heterogeneity, the analysis was performed on the non-transformed raw data. In instances of non-normality or heterogeneity, a square root transformation was performed. If both the non-transformed raw data and the transformed data exhibited non-normality or inequality of variance, a non-parametric analysis of variance was performed on the ranks of the raw data values. Parametric analyses were performed on the 48- and 72-hour area under the growth curve data. Non-parametric analyses were performed on the 24-, 48-, and 72-hour cell density, 24-hour area under the growth curve, and 24-, 48-, and 72-hour growth rate data.
A nonlinear modeling procedure was used to estimate the slope (B) and EC values. The distribution of x hat method was used to estimate the 95% confidence lirnits. Two measures of goodness of fit were calculated, R-squared and the root mean square error (RMSE). R-squared was calculated in order to describe the percent of variation about the mean explained by the logistic model. The RMSE describes the mean distance (in units of percent inhibition) between the observed data values and the estimated model fit to these values. It is one measure of the closeness of the data points to the logistic model curve. It is desirable for the value of R-squared to be large (100% being the maximum) and for the value of the RMSE to be small.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The NOEC value at 72 hours was 1.27 mg whole product/L, based on mean measured concentrations. The NOEC value was based on the lack of a statistically significant reduction in growth rate at this and the lowest test substance treatment. Based on growth rate, the 72-hour ErC50 value was 13.3 mg whole product/L with 95% confidence limits of 13.1 to 13.5 mg whole product/L, based on mean measured concentrations.
- Executive summary:
A growth inhibition test was conducted to estimate the potential toxicity of the test substance to the unicellular green alga, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata. Algal cells were exposed for 72 hours under static conditions to nominal concentrations 0 (control), 0.65, 1.3, 2.5, 5.0, 10, and 20 mg whole product/L of PrimeneTMTOA. Analytical confirmation of the test substance exposure concentrations was performed at 0 and 72 hours. Water quality characteristics of temperature, and pH, measured at test initiation and termination, were within acceptable limits. The controls and all treatment solutions were clear with no visible particulates, surface film, undissolved test substance, or precipitate throughout the exposure.
Percent change in cell density, as compared to the control, ranged from +1% at 0.747 mg whole product/L to -98% at 18.3 mg whole product/L after 72 hours of exposure. One-way analysis of variance showed a statistically significant (p = 0.05) reduction of the cell density in the 2.72, 5.26, 8.81 and 18.3 mg whole product/L, test substance treatments at 72 hours as compared to the control. The NOEC value at 72 hours was 1.27 mg whole product/L based on mean measured concentrations. Based on cell density, the 72-hour
EC50 value was 8.03 mg whole product/L with 95% confidence limits of 7.47 to 8.58 mg whole product/L based on mean measured concentrations.
Percent change in area under the growth curve, as compared to the control, ranged from +2% at 0.747 mg whole product/L, to -99% at 18.3 mg whole product/L after 72 hours of exposure to. One-way analysis of variance showed a statistically significant (p = 0.05) reduction of area under the growth curve in the 2.72, 5.26, 8.81, and 18.3 mg whole product/L, test substance treatments at 72 hours as compared to the control. The NOEC value for area under the growth curve at 72 hours was 1.27 mg whole product/L based on the mean measured concentrations. Based on area under the growth curve, the 72-hour EbC50 value was 8.40 mg whole product/L with 95% confidence limits of 7.96 to 8.84 mg whole product/L based on mean measured concentrations.
Percent change in growth rate, as compared to the control, ranged from 0% at 0.747 and 1.27 mg whole product/L to -78% at 18.3 mg whole product/L after 72 hours of exposure. One-way analysis of variance showed a statistically significant (p = 0.05) reduction of growth rate in the 2.72, 5.26, 8.81, and 18.3 mg whole product/L test substance treatments at 72 hours, as compared to the control. The NOEC value for growth rate at 72 hours was 1.27 mg whole product/L based on mean measured concentrations. Based on growth rate, the 72-hour ErC50 value was 13.3 mg whole product/L with 95% confidence limits of 13.1 to 13.5 ug whole product/L, based on mean measured concentrations.
