Validity
The achievable validity criteria were within acceptable limits and therefore the study can be considered as valid.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the experimental conditions, the 96 h LC50 value was determined to be > 100 mg/L, based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations.
- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of the test item to Brachydanio rerio, under semi-static conditions according to OECD Guideline 203 with GLP compliance.
At the request of the Sponsor a range-finding test was not performed and five test concentrations in a geometric series with a separation factor of 1.8 and one untreated control were tested in the main experiment. The nominal concentrations of test item used in the main experiment were: 9.53, 17.15, 30.86, 55.56 and 100.0 mg/L. The corresponding measured geometric mean test item concentrations, analytically determined at the start and at the end of the renewal periods, were: 8.29; 15.11; 27.66; 50.14 and 90.98 mg/L.
One aquarium was used in each test group and one in the control group. Each aquarium comprised seven fish and five litre test solution.
At the request of the Sponsor, as the geometric mean measured concentrations deviated not more than 20 per cent from the nominal, biological results are based on the analytically confirmed nominal concentrations.
No mortality was observed in any of the treated or control groups. There was no considerable difference observed concerning body weights between the groups.
All achievable validity criteria were met during this study.
Under the experimental conditions, the 96 h LC50 value was determined to be > 100 mg/L, based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations.

Additional information
One key study is available to assess the 96h acute toxicity of the registered substance to the fish species Brachydanio rerio, under semi-static conditions, according to the OECD Guideline 203 with GLP compliance. The nominal concentrations of test substance used in the main experiment were: 9.53, 17.15, 30.86, 55.56 and 100.0 mg/L. The corresponding measured geometric mean test substance concentrations, analytically determined at the start and at the end of the renewal periods, were: 8.29; 15.11; 27.66; 50.14 and 90.98 mg/L. As the geometric mean measured concentrations deviated not more than 20 per cent from the nominal, biological results were based on the analytically confirmed nominal concentrations. No mortality was observed in any of the treated or control groups. There was no considerable difference observed concerning body weights between the groups. In conclusion, under the experimental conditions, the 96h-LC50 value was determined to be greater than 100 mg/L, based on analytically confirmed nominal concentrations.
