EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
24 and 48 hours after the start of the exposure to the test substance the neonates were observed for their swimming behaviour. Animals not able to swim within approximately 15 s after gentle agitation of the test container were evaluated as immobilised. Animals trapped at the surface were counted, to evaluate a possible influence of the test substance to the water surface tension.
