- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: Flow-trough method with stock solutions. Individual stock solutions were prepared for each of the five concentrations tested. A primary stock solution was prepared by mixing a calculated amount of test substance into HPLC-grade dimethylformamide (DMF) at a nominal concentration of 200 mg/mL. Four secondary stock solutions were prepared in DMF at nominal concentrations of 13, 25, 50, and 100 mg/mL by proportional dilution of the primary stock. The stock solutions were mixed by inversion and appeared clear and colorless. Two sets of stock solutions were prepared, one at the start of flows, and the second on day 4 prior to initiation of the test. Stock solutions were stored refrigerated in glass amber bottles and aliquots of each stock were placed in the syringe pumps every two days during the study. The five test substance stock solutions were injected into the diluter mixing chambers at a rate of 15.5 μL/minute where they were mixed with dilution water delivered at a rate of 155 mL/minute to achieve the desired test concentrations. The negative control received dilution. water only. The solvent control was prepared by delivering HPLC-grade DMF to the mixing chamber for the solvent control. The concentration of DMF in the solvent control and all Allyl Cyclohexyl Propionate (CAS# 2705-87-5) treatment groups was 0.1 mL/L.

ACCLIMATION
- Acclimation period: Adult daphnids were cultured in water from the same source and at approximately the same temperature as used during the test. During the 2-week period immediately preceding the test, water temperatures in the cultures ranged from 19.5 to 20.4ºC. The pH of the water ranged from 8.1 to 8.6. Dissolved oxygen concentrations remained above 7.8 mg/L (more than 86% of saturation).
The six adult daphnids used to supply neonates for the test were held for at least 20 days prior to collection of the juveniles for testing, and had each produced at least one previous brood. Adult daphnids in the culture had produced an average of at least three young per adult per day over the 7-day period prior to the test. The adults showed no signs of disease or stress and no ephippia were produced during the holding period. At test initiation, the juvenile daphnids were collected from the cultures and indiscriminately transferred one or two at a time to transfer chambers until each chamber contained 10 daphnids. Each group of daphnids then was transferred to the test compartment in an indiscriminately assigned test chamber to initiate the test. All transfers were made below the water surface using wide-bore pipettes.
- Acclimation conditions: same as test
- Type and amount of food: The adults were fed prior to test initiation, but neonates were not fed during the test.

- Intervals of water quality measurement: Dissolved oxygen and pH were measured in one replicate test chamber of each treatment and control group at the beginning of the test, at approximately 24 hours, and at the end of the test, with measurements typically alternating between replicates in each group at each measurement interval. Dissolved oxygen was measured using a Thermo Orion Model 850Aplus dissolved oxygen meter, and measurements of pH were made using a Thermo Orion Model 525Aplus meter. When 100 % immobility occurred in a test chamber, measurements of temperature, dissolved oxygen and pH were taken in that test chamber and then discontinued. Hardness, alkalinity, specific conductance and total organic carbon (TOC) in the dilution water at the beginning of the test were measured. Hardness and alkalinity measurements were made by titration based on procedures in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. Specific conductance was measured using an Acorn Series Model CON6 conductivity-temperature meter. TOC was measured using a Shimadzu Model TOC-VCSH total organic carbon analyzer based on procedures in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater.

- The immobility data were analyzed using the computer program of C. E. Stephan (1977). The program was designed to calculate the EC50 value and the 95 % confidence interval by probit analysis, the moving average method, and binomial probability with nonlinear interpolation. In this study, probit analysis was used to calculate the 48-hour EC50 value and the 95 % confidence interval, and binomial analysis with non-linear interpolation was used to calculate the 24-hour EC50 value and the 95 % confidence interval. The no-immobility concentration and NOEC, were determined by visual interpretation of the immobility and observation data.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:

- Conclusions:
- The cladoceran, Daphnia magna, was exposed for 48 hours under flow-through conditions to five mean measured concentrations of Allyl Cyclohexyl Propionate (CAS# 2705-87-5) ranging from 0.86 to 11 mg/L. The 48-hour EC50 value was 3.8 mg/L, with a 95 % confidence interval of 3.2 to
4.5 mg/L. The no-immobility concentration was 1.5 mg/L and the NOEC was 0.86 mg/L. - Executive summary:
In a valid, conclusive and reliable study, the acute toxicity of the test item Allyl Cyclohexyl Propionate (CAS# 2705-87-5) on Daphnia magna was tested according to OECD TG 202, OPPTS 850.1010 and ASTM Standard E729-96 under GLP. Nominal concentrations selected for use in this study were 1.3, 2.5, 5.0, 10 and 20 mg/L. Measured concentrations of the samples ranged from 45.9 to 66.7 % of nominal. When measured concentrations of the samples collected during the test were averaged, the mean measured test concentrations for this study were 0.86, 1.5, 2.4, 5.4 and 11 mg/L, representing 66, 60, 48, 54 and 55% of nominal concentrations, respectively. The results of the study were based on the mean measured concentrations. A single floating daphnid was observed in both the negative and solvent control groups, but both appeared normal after gentle submersion. All other daphnia in the negative and solvent control groups appeared normal throughout the test with no immobility or signs of toxicity. Percent immobility at test termination in the 0.86, 1.5, 2.4, 5.4, and 11 mg/L mean measured concentration treatment groups was 0, 0, 10, 85, 100 %, respectively. Floating daphnids were also observed in the 0.86 mg/L treatment group, but all appeared normal after gentle submersion. No immobility or overt signs of toxicity were observed at the 0.86 mg/L test concentration. In addition to floating, lethargic daphnids were also observed in the 1.5 and 2.4 mg/L treatment groups at the 48 hour observation interval, and at all intervals for the 5.4 mg/L treatment group. The no-immobility concentration was 1.5 mg/L and the NOEC was 0.86 mg/L. EC50 values at 48 hours were determined to be 3.8 mg/L, with a 95 % confidence interval of 3.2 to 4.5 mg/L.
