- Behavioural abnormalities: At test start fisch showed enhanced activity and prospecting the new surrounding, however no adverse effects were observed.
- Observations on body length and weight: No
- Other biological observations: The dead animals showed apparently no alternation in appearence, pigmentation, mucosa and eyes .
- Mortality of control: No control
- Abnormal responses:
- Any observations that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: In a seperate test analytical monitoring (UV spectrometric measurement) of the a.i. in aqueous solution showed depletion of the a.i. ( 0.0504 mg/L at time 0, 0.0468 mg/L afetr 48 hours, and 445 mg/L after 96 hours).
No control was performed. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- LC50 was calculated according to Probit analysis after Finney (1971)
Since no control was performed, it is assumed that the lowest test concentration without any adverse affects on fish was taken as control for statistical analysis. This is acceptable, since the concentration/response curve is very steep. - Sublethal observations / clinical signs:

The test substance forms stable suspensions in water. All test concentrations were below the suspensibility of the test material.
No control was performed.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- no
- Remarks:
- no control was performed
- Conclusions:
- There is minor deviation from the OECD-Test Guideline 203 ( no control was performed). For statistical analysis the lowest concentration with no adverse effects to fish was presumably used, however this is acceptable, since the concentration/response curve is very steep.
The test material partially unsaturated IQAC, DMS quaternised contains considerable amounts of isopropanol. The toxicity of isopropanol against fish is about 100 to 1000 times lower than the toxicity of the test material. Therefore it can be concluded in a first approach, neglecting additive effects, that the observed effect values can be attributed to the active ingredient itself.
Despite of this the study is performed according to acceptable scientifical standards and regarded as reliable with restrictions - Executive summary:
In a 96-h acute toxicity study, Rainbow trouts (Salmo-Gardia, Shasta, Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to partially unsaturated IQAC, DMS quaternised at nominal concentrations of 10.0, 13.3, 17.6, 23.3, 30.8 mg test mat. /L. The 96-h LC50 was 9.84 – 10.24 mg act. ingr./L (nominal, Confidence interval: 2.7 - 11.73 mg a.i./L) . Sublethal effects were not observed. The observed concentration/response curve is very steep. The test material contains considerable amounts of isopropanol. The toxicity of isopropanol against fish is about 100 to 1000 times lower than the toxicity of the test material. Therefore it can be concluded in a first approach, neglecting additive effects, that the observed effect values can be attributed to the active ingredient itself.
This toxicity study is classified as acceptable with restrictions and satisfies the guideline requirement for acute toxicity to fish despite of some deviations that do not invalidate the study.Results Synopsis
