- PRE-TREATMENT OF TEST ITEM AND PREPARATION OF TEST ITEM CONCENTRATIONS
To produce the only test item concentration 200.6 mg of the test item were added to 2 litres of dilution water, treated for 1 h in an ultrasonic bath and stirred for 24 h on a magnetic stirrer. Undissolved particles of the test item were removed by filtration using a folded filter with a pore size of 7 - 12 µm. The pH was measured to be 7.8.
100 mL of the solution were taken and 0.564 mL of the algal inoculum was added to each replicate resulting in a final cell density of 5000 cells/mL. For each test item concentration and the control 6 replicates were prepared. All flasks were sealed with cotton stoppers. - Test organisms (species):
- Desmodesmus subspicatus (previous name: Scenedesmus subspicatus)
- Details on test organisms:
- Name: Desmodesmus subspicatus (formerly Scenedesmus subspicatus) Strain No. 86.81 SAG
Source: Strain of the test species obtained from 'The Collection of Algal Cultures' of the Institute of Plant Physiology at the University of Göttingen (Germany).
Maintenance and Acclimatisation: Exponentially growing stock cultures were maintained in the test facility under constant temperature conditions (21 - 24 °C with a maximum fluctuation of +/- 2 °C) at a light intensity in the range 60 to 120 µE x m-2 x s-1 (measured in the range 400 to 700 nm using a spherical quantum flux meter). The growth medium (according to BRINGMANN & KÜHN (1977) was renewed once a week. Cell density measurements were made using a microcell counter, Z2, Beckman Coulter.
Preparation of pre cultures: Pre cultures were set up three days before the start of a test. They were grown under identical exposure conditions as the stock cultures, except from the use of a different growth medium.
Test cultures: The algal inocula for the test were taken from an exponentially growing pre culture and were mixed with the growth medium to make up to a final cell density of about 5000 cells per millilitre in the test medium. - Test type:

Test vessels: 300 mL Erlenmeyer flasks with cotton stoppers, test volume: 100 mL
Culturing apparatus: Shaking incubator in which a temperature in the range 21 °C to 24 °C was maintained at +/- 2 °C, and continuous uniform illumination was provided in the spectral range 400 to 700 nm. Temperature was measured and recorded daily.
Light intensity: A light intensity ranging from 60 to 120 µE x m-2 x s-1, or an equivalent range of 4000 to 8000 lux, was measured. The light intensity was checked before the start of the study.
Cell density measurements: Cell densities were measured in a microcell counter (Z2, Beckman Coulter) by taking aliquots from each test flask, which were not replaced.
Experimental design: 1 test concentration plus 1 control; 6 replicates per concentration, 6 replicates per control; Initial cell density in the test cultures approximately 5000 cells per millilitre; Additionally highest test concentration without algae.

- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the adverse effects of phosphorothioyltris(oxybenzene-4,1-diylcarbamoyloxyethane-2,1-diyl) trisprop-2-enoate on the growth rate (= rate of increase in cell density with time) and the yield (= biomass at time t minus initial biomass) of the planktonic freshwater algal species Desmodesmus subspicatus (former name: Scenedesmus subspicatus) over several generations.
The study was conducted in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 761/2009 amending Regulation No 440/2008, Method C.3 ‘Freshwater Alga and Cyanobacteria, Growth inhibition test’ (2009) which is equivalent to OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals No. 201 (2006).
Exponentially growing algal cells were exposed for a period of 72 hours to a limit test concentration of nominally 100 mg/L of phosphorothioyltris(oxybenzene-4,1-diylcarbamoyloxyethane-2,1-diyl) trisprop-2-enoate dissolved in dilution water. Auxiliaries used to prepare the test media were an ultrasonic bath, a magnetic stirrer and a folded filter.
The cell densities were measured at 24 hour intervals. Inhibition of the algal population was measured as reduction in growth rate (index r), relative to control cultures grown under identical conditions. Growth rates were also used to calculate a No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) and a Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC) according to STUDENT-t test for Homogeneous Variances. The following values were determined:
ErC 50 (0-72 h): > 0.022 mg/L
ErC 10 (0-72 h): > 0.022 mg/L
NOEC [r] (tα 0.05): ≥ 0.022 mg/L
LOEC [r] (tα 0.05): > 0.022 mg/L
No toxic effects against algae were observed at the limit of water solubility under exposure conditions.
The results are expressed in terms of geometric mean measured values. Effective concentrations ranged from to 0.090 % to 0.13 % of nominal values at 0 hours, ranged from 0.014 % to 0.028 % of nominal values at 24 hours, from 0.0063 % to 0.014 % of nominal values at 48 hours and from 0.0050 % to 0.031 % of nominal values at 72 hours.
