TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Source/preparation of dilution water: The water used for the study was laboratory tap water filtered, dechlorinated and softened by passage through a Vivendi water purification system. The water was passed through a highgrade activated carbon filter to remove chlorine and any organic contaminants. A proportion of the supply was then passed through a water softener before final reverse osmosis (RO) treatment to produce a highly purified water supply. These two supplies were then remixed in the appropriate ratio to give a laboratory supply with the desired water hardness

OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Photoperiod: 16 hours light: 8 hours dark
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) : The criteria of death employed in this study were (i) absence of respiratory movement and (ii)absence of response to physical stimulation of the caudal peduncle. In addition to observations on mortality at 15 minutes and 2, 4, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours, subjective assessments were made on the type and incidence of sub-lethal effects compared with control fish.

- Conclusions:
- No mortality was observed following the exposure of rainbow trout to the test substance at a concentration of 227.9 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L. Due to the low toxicity of the test material, the 96-hour LC50 value of the substance was unable to be calculated. Therefore, the 96-hour LC50 value for the test substance with rainbow trout was determined to be > 227.9 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to >103.7 mg active enzyme protein/L).
The no-observed effect concentration (NOEC) was 227.9 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 103.7 mg active enzyme protein/L). - Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of Glucoamylase, batch PPY 24900 to rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) under semi-static conditions.
The study was conducted in accordance with OECD and EC guidelines, and in compliance with GLP. A group of ten juvenile fish were exposed to a single test concentration, nominally 227.9 mg enyzme concentrate dry matter/L of Glucoamylase, batch PPY 24900 dispersed in dechlorinated water.
Verification of test concentrations was performed based on enzyme activity. The amount of measured enzyme (AGU/g) was then converted to mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L in order to calculate the achieved measured concentrations. Measured concentrations ranged from 117.5% of nominal at 0 hours and 24 hours, 102.9% of nominal at 72 hours and 102.5% of nominal at 96 hours). The test substance could not be detectet in control samples. These results confirmed that the nominal exposure concentration was achieved and maintained satisfactorily for the 24-hour duration between each medium renewal. Mean measured concentration was 250.7 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L. The results were based on nominal concentrations as a worse-case.
Observations were made on the numbers of dead fish and the incidence of sub-lethal effects after 15 minutes and 2, 4, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours exposure.
No mortality was observed following the exposure of rainbow trout to the test substance at a concentration of 227.9 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L. Due to the low toxicity of the test material, the 96-hour LC50 value of the substance was unable to be calculated. Therefore, the 96-hour LC50 value for the test substance with rainbow trout was determined to be > 227.9 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to >103.7 mg active enzyme protein/L).
The no-observed effect concentration (NOEC) was 227.9 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 103.7 mg active enzyme protein/L).
