- Details on sampling:
- - Test Concentrations/Loadings :The saturated solution and further four dilution levels prepared out of
loadings the saturated solution with dilution water in a geometrical series with a separation factor of 2, were tested as follows:
6.25 - 12.5 - 25.0 - 50.0 - 100 %.
This corresponds to nominal loading levels of:
0.313 – 0.625 – 1.25 – 2.50 – 5.00 mg/L.
The loading levels are based on a proposal of the sponsor.
- Sampling method: The test concentrations of Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 were analytically verified via HPLC-UV in the saturated solution and the control at the start of the exposure (0 hours). At the start of the exposure (0 hours), sampling was carried out after preparation of the loading levels.
As the measured test item concentration was below the LOQ in the saturated solution, the test item concentrations at the other loading levels were
considered to be also below the LOQ. At the end of the exposure (48 hours), no analytical monitoring was carried out, because a measured test item
concentration above the LOQ was not observed at the start of the exposure.
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: All samples were stored at 6 ± 2 °C until sample preparation. Prepared samples were stored in an autosampler at room temperature until analysis. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: The saturated solution (5.00 mg/L test item were weighed out) was prepared with dilution water one day before the start of the exposure
(at -24 hours).
The test item was dispersed in the dilution water by stirring with a magnetic stirrer at approximately 1100 rpm for 24 hours at room temperature.
After completion of stirring, the test item dispersion was filtered with a membrane filter (0.2 µm, RC, MACHEREY-NAGEL) to achieve the saturated
solution
- Eluate: Elendt M4, according to ELENDT (1990), modified to a total hardness of 160 to 180 mg CaCO3/L, was used.
- Differential loading: The saturated solution and further four dilution levels prepared out of the saturated solution with dilution water in a
geometrical series with a separation factor of 2, were tested as follows:
6.25 - 12.5 - 25.0 - 50.0 - 100 %.
This corresponds to the nominal concentrations of:
0.313 - 0.625 - 1.25 - 2.50 - 5.00 mg/L.
- Controls: Dilution water without test item tested under the same conditions as the test groups.

- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The percentage immobility for the reference item was determined after 24 hours. The EC50-value with 95 % confidence limits (CI) was calculated by sigmoidal dose-response regression. The EC50-value for the most recent of the monthly performed reference tests was:
EC50: 1.51 mg/L (CI 1.08 - 2.10 mg/L)
The EC50-value of the reference item potassium dichromate after 24 hours is within the prescribed concentration range of 0.6 - 2.4 mg/L of quality criteria according to AQS P 9/2 (02/2000) for daphnids clone 5 cultured in Elendt M4 medium. The EC50-value of the reference item is also within the recommended range of 0.6 - 2.1 mg/L according to OECD-Guideline 202. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The EL-values after 24 and 48 hours and the NOEL and LOEL after 48 hours were estimated directly from the observation data, without mathematical
calculation.
An EC50-value was calculated only for the reference item by sigmoidal dose-response regression. The 95 % confidence limits for the EC50 were calculated from the best-fit values, the standard error and the t-distribution with the software GraphPad prism5. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- At the saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 and at any of the tested dilution levels, no significant effects were observed on Daphnia magna.
According to OECD Guidance Document No 23 (2000) if an effect cannot be detected in a test with a saturated solution the result has to be reported as no toxic effects at saturation. Therefore, exposures are expressed in terms of the original concentration of the test item in water at the start of the mixing period (loading rate) irrespective of the actual concentration of the test item in the saturated solution. - Executive summary:
In the acute immobilisation test with Daphnia magna (STRAUS), the effects of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 (batch no.: EAG-146-1.0.0) were determined according to EPA OPPTS Draft Guideline 850.1010 (1996) and OECD 202 (2004) which is equivalent to the Council Regulation (EC) No.440/2008 Method C.2 (2008). The study was performed from 2015-03-09 to 2015-03-12, with the definitive exposure phase from 2015-03-10 to 2015-03-12, at Dr.U.Noack-Laboratorien, Käthe-Paulus-Str.1, D-31157 Sarstedt, Germany.
The study was conducted under static conditions over a period of 48 hours with a saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 and further dilution levels in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2 (nominal loading rates of 0.313 to 2.50 mg/L).
The test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 is a red powder and has a water solubility of < 15 µg/L. The saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test itemwas prepared with dilution water one day before the start of the exposure (at -24 hours) and was used for testing and as stock solution for the preparation of all further tested dilution levels. A test item dispersion of 5 mg/L was stirred with approximately 1100 rpm for 24 hours at room temperature. After completion of stirring, the test item dispersion was filtered with a membrane filter (0.2 µm, RC,Macherey-Nagel) to achieve the saturated solution. Further dilution levels were prepared by diluting the saturated solution with dilution water.The tested solutions were visually clear throughout the exposure period.Twenty daphnids were exposed to each concentration level and the control.
The concentrations of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 in the saturated solution and in the control were analytically verified via HPLC-UV at the start of the exposure (0 hours).
The measured concentrations of the test item at the start of the exposure (0 hours) were below the LOQ (< 0.03 mg/L of the test item) in the saturated solution and in the control. Concentrations of the test item in all tested loading levels were considered to be all below the LOQ throughout the exposure. Due to this fact, analytical monitoring of the other dilution levels at the start of the exposure and the analytical monitoring of all loading levels at the end of the exposure was not carried out in agreement with the sponsor.
According to OECD Guidance Document No 23 (2000) if an effect cannot be detected in a test with a saturated solution the result has to be reported as no toxic effects at saturation. Therefore,exposuresare expressed in terms of the original concentration of the test item in water at the start of the mixing period (loading rate) irrespective of the actual concentration of the test item in thesaturated solution.The EL-values are presented in the table below.
The water quality parameters (i.e. pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration), measured at the start (0 hours) and at the end of the exposure (48 hours), were within the acceptable limits. The validity criteria of the test guidelines were fulfilled.
At the saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 and at any of the tested dilution levels, no significant effects were observed on Daphnia magna

Additional information
In the acute immobilisation test with Daphnia magna (STRAUS), the effects of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 were determined according to EPA OPPTS Draft Guideline 850.1010 (1996) and OECD 202 (2004) which is equivalent to the Council Regulation (EC) No.440/2008 Method C.2 (2008).
The study was conducted under static conditions over a period of 48 hours with a saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 and further dilution levels in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2 (nominal loading rates of 0.313 to 2.50 mg/L).
The test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 is a red powder and has a water solubility of < 15 µg/L. The saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test itemwas prepared with dilution water one day before the start of the exposure (at -24 hours) and was used for testing and as stock solution for the preparation of all further tested dilution levels. A test item dispersion of 5 mg/L was stirred with approximately 1100 rpm for 24 hours at room temperature. After completion of stirring, the test item dispersion was filtered with a membrane filter (0.2 µm, RC,Macherey-Nagel)to achieve the saturated solution. Further dilution levels were prepared by diluting the saturated solution with dilution water.The tested solutions were visually clear throughout the exposure period.Twenty daphnids were exposed to each concentration level and the control.
The concentrations of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 in the saturated solution and in the controlwereanalytically verified via HPLC-UV at the start of the exposure (0 hours).
The measured concentrations of the test item at the start of the exposure (0 hours) were below the LOQ (< 0.03 mg/L of the test item) in the saturated solution and in the control. Concentrations of the test item in all tested loading levels were considered to be all below the LOQ throughout the exposure. Due to this fact, analytical monitoring of the other dilution levels at the start of the exposure and the analytical monitoring of all loading levels at the end of the exposure was not carried out in agreement with the sponsor.
According to OECD Guidance Document No 23 (2000) if an effect cannot be detected in a test with a saturated solution the result has to be reported as no toxic effects at saturation. Therefore,exposuresare expressed in terms of the original concentration of the test item in water at the start of the mixing period (loading rate) irrespective of the actual concentration of the test item in thesaturated solution.The EL-values are presented in the table below.
The water quality parameters (i.e. pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration), measured at the start (0 hours) and at the end of the exposure (48 hours), were within the acceptable limits. The validity criteria of the test guidelines were fulfilled.
At the saturated solution with a nominal loading of 5.00 mg/L of the test item Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306 and at any of the tested dilution levels, no significant effects were observed on Daphnia magna
