- SAMPLING
1.5 ml of test water was collected from each beaker in both the control and the concentration group (each test vessel) on before and after water renewal. Sampling of fresh test solution was conducted immediately at the start of testing (day 0), and on days 7 and 19. Sampling of old test solution was conducted at days 2, on days 9 and 21. - Details on test solutions:

METHOD FOR PREPARATION AND COLLECTION OF EARLY INSTARS OR OTHER LIFE STAGES:
Method of breeding daphnids to obtain test young: Healthy adult female daphnids from the current generation of stock that were visually healthy and with a brood pouch of sufficient size were transferred to designated beakers, and then the young produced the following day were divided into separate beakers. These young daphnids became the parents for the test specimens and were acclimatised under the conditions detailed below for 22 days. In order for them to mature and reproduce, the young were removed at least once a week. The day prior to exposure, the young were removed and the young produced on the following day were used in the study. There were few dead individuals and no dormant eggs or males had been produced.

pH: measurements were taken weekly at the time of water exchange, for all compartments (i.e. each test vessel).
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: no
- Photoperiod: Indoor lighting, 16 hours light/8 hours dark
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable):
- Daphnia magna observations (Parental daphnids): mortality, immobility, abnormalities in external appearance; daily
- Daphnia magna observations (Juveniles produced): day of first progeny, number of offspring, living and dead young, aborted eggs and dormant eggs; at time of water renewal
TEST CONCENTRATIONS
The effect concentration (EC50) of the 48-hour acute immobility in Daphnia magna was above 1000 mg/L, so a limit test was set at 100 mg/L only (control compartment and 100 mg/L concentration compartment).
TEST PERFORMANCE
Water temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration (D.O.) and pH were measured, after which the sample daphnids were introduced and the time of their introduction set as the start of the exposure period. The daphnids were introduced using a wide-barrelled glass pipette. The total volume of breeding water within the pipette at this time was within 1% of the volume of the test solution. After this, the daphnids were transferred to new test solution at each water exchange, and bred for 21 days. During the exposure period, a set quantity of food was given.
- Daphnia magna observations (Parental daphnids)
Numbers of deaths were counted daily. Also, if any visible abnormalities were found (immobility, abnormalities in external appearance) these were recorded. After counting, any dead parent individuals would be removed. When transferring parental daphnids to new test solution at the time of water exchange, care was taken to ensure that, as far as possible, old test solution was not introduced.
- Daphnia magna observations (Juveniles produced)
At the time of each water change, the vessels were checked for living and dead young, aborted eggs and dormant eggs. Live young were removed after counting.
The first day that young were produced was recorded as the date of first brood production. - Reference substance (positive control):

- TREATMENT GROUP
Parental daphnia death numbers and mortality rate
No parental Daphnia deaths were observed in the test compartment (85.0 mg/L) so half lethal concentration (LC50) was > 85 mg/L.
Mean cumulative number of juveniles
There was no significant difference with the control compartment for mean cumulative number of juveniles in each test vessel in the test compartment (85.0 mg/L), so 50% reproduction inhibition concentration (ErC50) and the no observed effect concentration (NOECr) was > 85.0 mg/L. The mean cumulative number of juveniles per parent individual in the treatment group was 45.38 compared to 42.68 of the control.
CONTROL
Parental daphnia death numbers and mortality rate
The mortality rate of parental Daphnia in the control compartment was 0% at the end of the exposure period, satisfying the established test criterion of being below 20%. No deaths at all were observed in parental Daphnia in either the control compartment or concentration compartment. Therefore, the mortality rate of parental Daphnia in the concentration compartment with concentration of the test substance at 85.0 mg/L was 0%.
Day of first brood production
The day of first brood production from parental Daphnia in the control compartment was day 7-8, satisfying the established test criterion of within 9 days. In the 85 mg/L concentration compartment, day of first brood from parental Daphnia was day 7-9.
Mean cumulative number of juveniles
In the control the mean cumulative number of juveniles per parent individual was 42.68, satisfying the established test criterion of 40.
Production of dormant eggs
There were no dormant eggs in the control compartment or concentration compartments. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- For the integrated acute immobilisation testing (test performed acc. to outdated guideline 202; Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test and Reproduction Test” (1984)), a standard substance (potassium dichromate, pharmaceutical grade) 48-hour EiC50 derived established at 0.42 mg/L.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Please see 'any other information on materials and methods'.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- acc. to OECD 202, 1984; see also overall remarks
- Conclusions:
- The 21-d NOEC (Daphnia magna, reproduction) is > 85 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
1,4 -Butanediol was tested for effects on reproduction of Daphnia magna in a 21 -d semi-static study following OECD TG 211 (1984). A limit test with the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L was set up. Analytical verification of the test substance concentration revealed a mean measured concentration of 85 mg/L. No adverse effects were determined. Based on mean measured concentrations, the 21-d NOEC was > 85 mg/L. The study was considered reliable and adequate for the environmental hazard assessment.

Description of key information
21 -d NOEC(Daphnia magna, reproduction) > 85 mg/L (OECD 211, NITE, 1996)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Read-across approach: butane-1,4 -diol (source), butane-1,3 -diol (target) (see also Read-across justification in IUCLID section 13)
In the available key study, the source substance butane-1,4 -diol was tested for effects on reproduction of Daphnia magna in a 21 -d semi-static study following OECD TG 211 (1984, RL2). A limit test with the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L was set up. Analytical verification of the test substance concentration revealed a mean measured concentration of 85 mg/L. No adverse effects were determined. The determined 21 -d NOEC was > 85 mg/L (mean measured concentrations), which was derived for source and target substance (no conversion factor applied as source and target compound have the same molecular weight).
