- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
Due to the low water solubility of the test Item, a supersaturated dispersion with a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L was prepared by weighing 501 mg of the test Item into 5000 mL test water. No auxiliary solvent or emulsifier was used. The test Item was mixed into the test water as homogeneously as possible by ultrasonic treatment for 15 minutes and by intense stirring for 96 hours at room temperature in the dark. The long stirring period of 96 hours was chosen to dissolve a maximum amount of the test Item In test water. Then, the supersaturated stock dispersion of the test item was filtered through a membrane filter (Schleicher & Schuell, Type NC45, pore size 0.45 µm) after the 96 hours stirring period just before the start of the test. The undiluted filtrate with the maximum concentration of dissolved test Item was used as the only test medium. The test medium was prepared just before introduction of the fish (= start of the test). - Test organisms (species):

TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS

CaCl2 X 2H2O: 2.0 mmol/L (= 294 mg/L)
MgS04 X 7H2O: 0.5mmol/L (=123 mg/L)
NaHCO3: 0.75 mmol/L (= 65 mg/L)
KCI: 0.075 mmol/L (= 5.8 mg/L)

The test water was aerated prior to the preparation of the test media until oxygen saturation was reached.
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) : the test fish were observed after approximately 3, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours test duration for mortality and visible abnormalities. The water temperature, pH-values, and oxygen concentrations were measured at the start of the test and once every day during the test in the test medium and the control. At the same dates, the appearance of the test medium was recorded.

Reference
Description of key information
Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphite is with high probability acutely not harmful to fish.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
A static limit test was performed according to the OECD guideline 203 using a water-accommodated fraction approach [Ciba, 2002]. The nominal test concentration was 100 mg/L. Analysis of the test solution showed that the concentration was below the analytical detection limit of 100 µg/L. No mortalities or other abnormalities were seen in fish exposed to the test solution for 96 hours. Hence, the 96-hour LC0 was determined to be higher than the loading rate of at least 100 mg/L.
