Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The 48h-EC50 was 37 mg/l with 95% fiducial limits of 33 and 42 mg/I.
ISOPROPENYL METHYL ETHER did not induce acute immobilisation of Daphnia magna at or
below a mean measured exposure concentration of 20 mg/I under flow-through test conditions
(NOEC).
