- Executive summary:
96 -hour Acute Toxicity Study in the Carp with FeEDDHMANa.
Analysis of samples from a vessel containing 10 mg/L during the range finding test revealed that FeEDDHMANa was stable under test conditions for at least 96 hours. The final study was a limit test, because no toxicity was observed in the range-finding test. In this limit test 3 x 10 fish were exposed for 96 hours in a static system. Analysis of samples taken at the start of the final test revealed that the initial actual concentrations were in agreement with the nominal concentration of 1000 mg/L. Over a period of 96 hours, the actual concentrations remained constant. Under these conditions, FeEDDHMANa did not induce any significant acute effects in carp at the exposure concentration of 1000 mg/L. Hence, the 96h-LC50 for carp exposed to FeEDDHMANa was greater than 1000 mg/L, the maximum concentration to be tested.

- Details on test solutions:
- Test Medium:
Dechlorinated tap water from the SG dechlorination sytem with a hardness of 14 dH was
used as test water.
Test article:
A stock solution of 10 gil of EDDHMA Fe K was prepared with purified water. For the
concentration levels of 1000 mgll to 1 mg/l the actual test concentrations were achieved by
dilution of the stock solution with dechlorinated tap water.
Additionally, a concentration containing 10 gil was prepared by adding the test article directly
to the test aquaria.
In the preliminary test, test solutions were prepared only once prior to the initiation of the test.
9 liters each of dechlorinated tap water were placed in 12 1 test vessels. For each
concentration level, 11 of a ten-fold concentrated test solution was prepared from the test
article stock solution, using a 1000 ml volumetric. Subsequently, this solution was added to
the test aquaria. To yield the highest concentration of 10 gil, 100 g of the test article were
suspended in 1000 ml of test water and added to the aquaria. - Test organisms (species):
- Oncorhynchus mykiss (previous name: Salmo gairdneri)
- Details on test organisms:
- The fish were obtained from the supplier on the 9th of May, 1990. Prior to the initiation of the test, the fish were acclimatized for a minimum of 14 days in 500 I polypropylene containers with permanent flow through of fresh water and ventilation. Beyond this, the fish were kept
under identical conditions for their entire holding period. Daily controls regarding the temperature, the 02 concentration and the pH-value were
performed. There were no mortalities during this period. The total length of the fish was 3 - 5 cm.

- Details on results:
- 100% mortality occurred at 10000 mg/L, zero mortality in all other concentration levels. Observation of fish in 100 and 1000 mg/L was not possible due to the deep red color of the test solutions. However, movement of fish in exposed animals seemed restricted to the lower part of the test vessel, fins of the fish showed a slight red colour at 10 mg/L.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Although the author concludes a LC50 > 100 mg/L, at 1000 mg/L no mortalities were observed either.
It can thus be concluded that the LC50 is > 1000 mg/L, based on measured concentrations. - Executive summary:
In this study, fish were exposed for 96 h to EDDHMA FeK according to the OECD 203 guideline test, using rainbow trout (salmo gairdneri) as test specieds. 10 fish were used per test concentration (10 -100 -1000 -10000 mg/L), two replicates of 5 fish.
In the preliminary test, a mortality of 100 % was observed for a concentration of 10 000 mg/l. At 1000 mg/l of EDDHMA Fe K no mortalities were noted. Due to these results, the preliminary test could be regarded as a Limit test. At concentration levels of 100 mg/l and 1000 mg/l, no mortalities were observed. Because of the deep red colour of the test article solutions, an observation of the fish in these test aquaria was not possible.
The LC50 is concluded > 1000 mg/L based on measured concentrations, however due to observations on movement of fish being restricted to the lower part of the test vessels and colouration of fins at > 10 mg/L, a NOEC was concluded at 1 mg/L.

Description of key information
The acute toxicity of the structurally related UVCB EDDHMA-Fe to fish was investigated in carp and rainbow trout. The LC50 for a 96 hour exposure was greater than 1000 mg/L for both species, however from the study with rainbow trout 100% mortality was observed at 10000 mg/L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
- Key study by Bogers with EDDHMA-Fe, 1992 with carp:
Over a period of 96 hours, the actual concentrations remained constant. Under these conditions, EDDHMA-FeNa did not induce any significant acute effects in carp at the exposure concentration of 1000 mg/L. Hence, the 96h-LC50 for carp exposed to EDDHMA-FeNa was greater than 1000 mg/L, the maximum concentration tested.
- Additional study by Thun wirh EDDHMA-Fe, 1990 with rainbow trout:
In the preliminary test, a mortality of 100 % was observed for a concentration of 10 000 mg/L. At 1000 mg/l of EDDHMA Fe K no mortalities were noted. At concentration levels of 100 mg/l and 1000 mg/l, no mortalities were observed. Because of the deep red colour of the test article solutions, an observation of the fish in these test aquaria was not possible. The LC50 is concluded > 1000 mg/L based on measured concentrations, however due to observations on movement of fish being restricted to the lower part of the test vessels and colouration of fins at > 10 mg/L, a NOEC was concluded at 1 mg/L.
- Supporting study by Basf 2010 with EDDHA-Fe in zebrafish:
The test substance EDDHA-FeNa was tested at 120 mg/L, which was analytically confirmed. The 96 hour LC50 value for EDDHA-FeNa with the zebrafish (Danio rerio) was greater than 120 mg/L based on the nominal concentration of the test substance and greater than 122 mg/L based on the mean of analytically detemined concentrations. The 96 hour NOEC was determined to be greater than or equal to 120 mg/L.
- The supporting acute toxicity study by Ciba-Geigy (1978) with EDDHA-Fe to rainbow trout, carp, catfish and bluegill was performed according to the method reported by Bathe et al. (1974). Various concentrations of EDDHA-FeNa were prepared by adding the test material dissolved in aqua dest. (stock solution), at the appropriate amount ensuring that the total volume in each vessel remained the same. The LC50 for a 96 hour exposure was greater than 100 mg/L for Rainbow trout, Carp, Catfish and Bluegill.
- Additionally, a study investigating the acute toxicity of EDDHMA-Na4 to bluegill is given (Engstrom, 1986) as supporting evidence that these similar chelate structures have no high acute toxicity to fish. In this study the LC50 (96h) proved > 1420 mg/L the highest concentration tested, however some mortality was observed at this concentration.
