The median immobilisation concentrations (EC50) of the test substance after 24 and 48 hours' exposure were as listed below.
The maximum no observed effect concentration (NOEC) of the test substance at 24 hours' exposure was above 1000 mg/L, and the NOEC at 48 hours' exposure was 180 mg/L. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- not applicable
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- no data
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The immobilisation rate 48 hours after exposure was 0% in the control, 100 and 180 mg/L, 20% at 320 and 560 mg/L and 25% at 1000 mg/L.
The maximum no observed effect concentration (NOECi) at 48 hours' exposure was 180 mg/L. EC50(48h) are greater than 1000 mg/L. - Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to determine the short term toxicity of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol on Daphnia magna in an acute immobilization test following OECD 202 guideline without GLP. No purity of the test item was reported and no analytical measurement were performed during the test. However, the substance is assumed to be stable in aqueous medium based on the analytical measurements performed during two other studies on algae (Merve, 2010) and fish (Geiger, 1984). The measured concentrations were above 70% of nominal after 72h in an algae test and above 80% after 96h in a fish test. Five different concentrations (100, 180, 320, 560, and 1000 mg/L) and one control were tested on 20 individuals divided in 4 replicates (5 per replicate) under a semi-static regime (the complete test solution was renewed 24 hours after start of exposure). Measured at the beginning and the end of exposure, the test solution had a temperature of 20.0ºC, pH of 7.5 to 7.7 and dissolved oxygen concentration of 8.3 to 8.7 mg/L, which were within the suitable range for daphnid rearing conditions. The results showed that all the validitycriteria were fulfilled. The immobilization rate 48 hours after exposure was 0% in the control, 100 and 180 mg/L, 20% at 320 and 560 mg/L and 25% at 1000 mg/L. The maximum no observed effect concentration (NOEC) at 48 hours exposure was 180 mg/L. The EC50(48h) is greater than 1000 mg/L.

- Executive summary:
The aim of the test was to determine the toxicity of 2,2,2 -trifluoroethanol on Daphnia after 24 hours of exposure. An EC50 (24h) and an Equitox parameter corresponding to the toxicity of 1m3 of effluent responsible for 50 % immobilization of daphnies and reported to 1 kg of substance were derived. An EC50 (24 h) > 100 mg/l and an Equinox.kg-1 < 10 were found for Trifluoroethanol. Scarce information reported doesn't allow to evaluate the reliability of the results.

Description of key information
Two studies are available for this endpoint. One study has been performed with 2.2.2-trifluoroethanol on Daphnia magna in an acute immobilization test following OECD 202 guideline without GLP. No purity of the test item was reported and no analytical measurement were performed during the test. However, the substance is assumed to be stable in aqueous medium based on the analytical measurements performed during two other studies on algae (Merve, 2010) and fish (Geiger, 1984). The measured concentrations were above 70% of nominal after 72h in an algae test and above 80% after 96h in a fish test. Five different concentrations and one control were tested on 20 individuals divided in 4 replicates under a semi-static regime.The test conditions (temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen concentration) were within the suitable range for daphnids during the exposure. The results showed that all the validity criteria were fulfilled. The immobilization rate 48 hours after exposure gives a NOEC (48 h) of 180 mg/L and a EC50(48h) greater than 1000 mg/L.
The other study was not performed under standard guideline and is not sufficiently documented to assess the reliability of the results. Additionally, the study reported an EC50 at 24h instead of 48h as requested by current guideline. The result being consistent with the key study (i.e. EC50 (24h) value above 100 mg/L), this study has been selected as a supporting study.
