At 24h and at the end of the test period (48 hours), 5 mL old media samples were taken from pooled control and test vessels. The samples were taken using an air displacement pipette fitted with a plastic pipette tip into 20 mL glass scintillation vials containing 5 mL of methanol.

- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: 100 mg AI/L stock solution (equivalent to 139 mg test substance /L) was prepared by dissolving approximately 34.8 mg of test substance in 250 mL of autoclaved Elendt M4 medium with the aid of sonication for approximately 10 minutes. The required test concentrations were prepared by serial dilution of the stock solution.
- Other relevant information: The test media and the control were checked for the tyndall effect using a Hach 2100 N turbidity meter. The turbidity measurement for the test solution was not significantly different to the measurement for the control and therefore the test solution was considered a true solution. - Test organisms (species):

- 48 h-EC50: 1.48 mg/L (95% CI : 0.746 - 2.92)- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Linear interpolation analysis was performed in order to estimate EC50 values for the 24 and 48-hour immobilisation. Outliers were assessed using Grubbs extreme value. No outliers were excluded from the results, as the outliers identified during the statistical analysis were not considered to be biologically significant. Statistical analysis was performed using the CETIS program v 1.8.6.8

Reference
Description of key information
EC50 (48 h): 3.61 mg a.i./L, calculated exposure concentration (D. magna, OECD 202)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The assessment is based on the data currently available. New studies, based on the category review and the final decisions issued for some of the category substances, which are also relevant for this assessment, are currently being conducted. The hazard assessment with respect to aquatic toxicity will be updated once all ongoing studies have been finalised.
The acute toxicity of Alcohols, C12-14 (linear, even-numbered), ethoxylated, sulfates, ammonium salts, < 2.5 mol EO to aquatic invertebrates was investigated in a study following OECD GD 202. The test organism Daphnia magna was exposed to nominal test concentrations of 1, 1.8, 3.2, 5.6 and 10 mg a.i./L in a semi-static test approach. The test concentrations were analytically monitored by LC-MS/MS. Eight constituents of the UVCB substance were targeted in the analysis. The determined EC50 (48 h) was 3.61 mg a.i./L, based calculated exposure concentrations.
