- Executive summary:
Data available for the test chemical was reviewed to determine its toxic nature upon the growth and mobility of aquatic invertebrate. The studies are as mentioned below:
The first study was to determine the effect of test chemical on the immobilisation of test organism daphnia magna. Test conducted in accordance with OECD guideline 202 (Daphnia sp. Acute Immobilisation Test). Analytically monitoring of the test sample conducted by using HPLC/UV detector. Juvenile daphnia (<24 hours old) produced from an in-house culture of adults were maintained at the contract laboratory under test conditions for 45 days. During the 48 hours prior to testing, the daphnid culture was maintained in 100% dilution water under static, renewal conditions for 48 hours. There was no mortality during the 48 hours prior to test and the test organisms appeared free of disease, injuries, or abnormalities. The daphnid culture produced young before day 12 and a subsample of adults produced on average, more than 3 young per day during the 7days prior to the beginning of the test. The test substance was provided via an intermittent flow proportional diluter. 5 nominal concentrations 0.78, 1.3, 2.2, 3.6, and 6.0 mg/L were used for the toxicity testing. 10 daphnia per vessel added and test conducted in duplicates. After the exposure of test chemical for 48 hrs, toxicity were measured on the basis of immobility and mortality rate of daphnia magna. The EC50 value was determine to be 2.65 mg/l and LC50 was observed at the 3.11 mg/l. Based on the above effect chemical consider to be toxic and classified as aquatic chronic 2 as per the CLP classification criteria.
Similarly in the second study a Daphnia immobilization static study was conducted following Guideline “Acute Toxicity for Daphnia” (C.2), Directive 92/69/EEC by providing the exposure period of 48 hrs. Test conducted under the static system. After the exposure of 48 hrs, effect on the daphnia magna were observed and measured on the basis of immobility. The EC50 was determine to be 5.7 mg/l.
Above studies was supported by the another third study. To study the effects of test chemical on aquatic invertebrates test was carried out according to the OECD Guideline 202 (Daphnia sp. Acute Immobilisation Test). The 48-h LC50 value is based on measured data. A synthetic fresh water was used for culture and test purposes. Properties of this medium: Total hardness: 2,20 - 3,20 mmol/l, Alkalinity up to pH 4.3: 0,80 - 1,00 mmol/l, Molar ratio Ca:Mg: about 4 : 1, pH value: 7,5 - 8,5, Conductivity: 550 - 650 μS/cm. After preparation the M4 medium was aerated for approximately 24 h until saturation. The test substance was tested in the range of concentrations between 16 and 1 mg/l. The dilution factor was 2. The number of mobile daphnids after 24 and 48 hours of exposure in the different test concentrations was measured. The EC50 (48 h) calculated using the Probit analyses The EC 50 value of test chemical was observed to be 3.7 mg/L when daphnia magna was exposed to for 48 hrs. On the basis of this value it can be concluded that the test chemical is toxic to the aquatic environment and can be considered as Aquatic acute 2 as per the classification criteria for aquatic environment.
Thus based on the overall studies, chemical consider to be toxic and can be consider to be classified as aquatic chronic 2 as per the CLP classification criteria.
