- Details on sampling:
- Duplicate samples were taken at the start and at the end of the test (after 48 hours) from the single test concentration of 100 mg/L and from the control. For the 48-hour stability samples, the contents of the respective replicates were combined prior to sampling.

The test item was mixed into test water by intensive stirring for 30 minutes at room temperature in the dark. After the dissolving procedure the single test concentration of 100 mg/L was a clear solution. The test medium was prepared just before the introduction of the daphnids.

- Details on results:
- The measured concentration of the test item in the test medium of the single test concentration of 100 mg/L was 102 and 98 % of nominal value at the start and the end of the test, respectively.
In the control and in the test item concentration of 100 mg/L, no daphnids showed immobilization or other signs of disease or stress (e.g., discoloration or unusual behavior such as trapping at the surface water) during the test period of 48 hours. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- For evaluation of the quality of the daphnia clone and the experimental conditions, potassium dichromate is tested as a positive control twice a year. The result of the latest positive control test in March 2017 (24-hour EC50: 1.2 mg/L) showed that the sensitivity of the test organisms was within the range given by the guideline (24-hour EC50: 0.60-2.1 mg/L).
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The test item had no acute toxic effects on Daphnia magna in a static 48-hour test up to the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L under the conditions of the test.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item on Daphnia magna was determined in a 48-hour static test according to the OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals, No. 202 (2004) and the Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Part C.2. A limit test was performed with a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L. Additionally, a control group was tested in parallel.
The measured concentration of the test item in the test medium of the single test concentration of 100 mg/L was 102 and 98 % of nominal value at the start and the end of the test, respectively. The determined 48-hour EC50 was > 100 mg/L.
In conclusion, the test item had no acute toxic effects on Daphnia magna in a 48-hour static test up to the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L.
Reference
Validity of the test
The test is considered to be valid, as in the control no daphnids showed immobilization or other signs of disease or stress (e.g., discoloration or unusual behavior such as trapping at the surface water). Furthermore, the dissolved oxygen concentration at the end of the test was ≥3 mg/L in the control and test vessels.
