The TGAS coded AE1170437 used at the initiation of this study includes multiple isomers, including the isomers AE1170437 (principle active substance) and AE1170438 (active isomer of the principle active substance). Since the biological activity of AE1170438 is similar to AE1170437, both are regarded as active substances in the TGAS. The TGAS contains 95% (94.5%) to 100% AE1170437 and, 0 % to 5 % (5.3 %) AE1170438. In order to distinguish between the single diastereomer AE1170437, and the TGAS containing both AE1170437 and AE1170438, a new BCS code, BCS-AA10717, has been designated for the TGAS mixture of stereoisomers. All references to the technical active substance and analytical results as AE1170437 are equivalent to the newly established TGAS: BCS-AA10717 - Analytical monitoring:

- Details on sediment and application:
- PREPARATION OF SPIKED SEDIMENT:
A jar-rolling technique was used to apply the test substance to the sediment (Ditsworth et al., 1990). A 9.0-mL volume of each dosing stock solution was applied to 0.0500 kg of fine silica sand placed in glass Petri dishes. The solvent was allowed to evaporate off the sand for 30 minutes. The dry sand, containing the test substance, was then added to the 2.0 kg of wet sediment (1.3592 kg dry weight based on a percent solids of 67.96%) in individual one-gallon jars. The total mass of sediment spiked on a dry weight basis for each treatment level and control was 1.4092 kg (0.0500 kg sand and 1.3592 kg dry weight sediment). The jars were sealed and positioned horizontally on the rolling mill. Each jar was then rolled for four hours at room temperature at approximately 15 rpm. Following the four hours of rolling, the jars were stored upright at 4 oC. The sediments were allowed to equilibrate for a 30-day period in the refrigerator. Once weekly during the 30-day equilibration period and prior to addition into the replicate exposure vessels (test day –1), the jars were mixed on the rolling mill for an additional two hours at room temperature to ensure the sediment was homogeneous. - Test organisms (species):

PROTOCOL DEVIATIONS
1. The protocol states that the overlying water pH will range from 6.8 to 7.5.
Characterization of the well water on 29 August 2007 yielded a pH measurement of 6.5.
Based on acceptable survival and growth in the controls, this deviation from the typical
overlying water pH range did not have a negative impact on the results or interpretation
of the study.
2. The protocol states that the test temperature will be maintained at 23 ± 1 ºC. During this
study, temperatures measured in the test vessels ranged from 22 to 24 ºC, except for four
days: 21, 24, 25 and 26 August 2007. The maximum temperature of the deviations was
25 ºC. Based on acceptable survival and growth in the controls, this deviation did not
have a negative impact on the results or interpretation of the study.
Based on mean measured sediment concentrations and amphipod survival data, the following results were generated from this study:
Lowest-Observed-Effect Concentration (LOEC) |
> 180 mg/kg |
No-Observed-Effect Concentration (NOEC) |
180 mg/kg |
LC50 (95% confidence intervals) |
> 180 (NAa) mg/kg |
a) NA = Not Applicable. LC50 value was empirically estimated, therefore,
corresponding 95% confidence intervals could not be calculated.
Description of key information
Acute toxicity to sediment organisms is not expected.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information about sediment toxicology is not required under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 within this tonnage band but to complete the data set additional informations about sediment organisms are provided.
Two acute studies on sediment dwelling organisms are available,one with a freshwater and one with saltwater organisms according to EPA guidelines. Chironomus tentans was tested with natural sediment spiked with the test substance. The resulting NOEC (10d) was >100 mg/kg dw. The second study was conducted with the saltwater species Leptocheirus plumulosus in natural sediment and resulted in a LC50 of > 180 mg/kg dw.
The test substance shows no acute toxicity to sediment organisms.
