- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- See 'Any other information on materials and methods incl. tables'
- Conclusions:
- The 96-h LC50 value in fish (Cyprinus carpio) is 0.43 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of the substance to fish (Cyprinus carpio). The study was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals No. 203. In a semi-static test set-up in airtight closed 3.2-L vessels seven fish per concentration were exposed for 96 hours to a Water Soluble Fraction (WSF) prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L and 5 dilutions of this WSF. Throughout the test, test solutions were refreshed in intervals of 24 hours. Clinical effects (such as hypoactive swimming, loss of equilibrium or immobility) and incidences of mortality were recorded for the control and each test group at t = 3, 24, 48 and 72 and 96 hours. Throughout the 24h renewal intervals, the measured concentration decreased at max. to 2.8 – 48% of initial. Therefore average exposure concentrations were calculated and the LC50 was calculated based on these concentrations.
