- STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Solubility and stability of the test substance in the test medium: Since the test substance is a poorly water-soluble inorganic compound, the test was carried out using the test item in the dispersed state. As a result of analysis, the ratio of the measured value to the nominal value was 93% at the time of preparation of the test solution and 1% after 24 hours. It is considered that the concentration of the middle layer after 24 hours decreased due to the gradual precipitation of the test substance in the test solution. As a reference, the filtrate obtained by filtering the test solution with a filter (Millipore Millex HA 0.45 μm) was similarly analyzed, and the concentration of the test substance dissolved in the test solution was confirmed. As a result of analysis, the average value of the test substance concentration in the filtrate was 0.146 mg/L. - Analytical monitoring:

- Executive summary:
An acute toxicity test was performed on Daphnia magna according to OECD 202, under GLP conditions. To determine the degree of inhibition in daphnids' mobility, a limit test was performed under semi-static conditions (renewal rate 24h). 20 daphnids per concentration (4 vessels with 5 animals each) were exposed to 0 (control) or 100 mg/L (nominal concentrations) of test item for 48h at 20 ± 1 ºC. The concentration of test item was verified at 0 and 24 hours by ICP-MS. Under test conditions, the 48h-EC50 of the test item in daphnids was determined to be > 20.8 mg/L, based on measured concentration.
