Details on test solutions:
The toxicity of the test item was determined by preparing a water-accommodated fractions (WAF) of the test item. The water-accommodated fraction was applied to dilution water containing only the fraction of multi-component test item that was dissolved and/or present as
a stable dispersion. The preparation method for the WAF was as follows:
0.235 g of the test item (purity: 85%) was added to a 2000 mL beaker and dilution water was added up to 2000 mL mark of the beaker to give the nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L. The prepared test solution was stirred for 48 hours using magnetic stirrer. Undissolved test item existed on the wall of the beaker because the test item was very sticky.
After 48 hours of mixing, the middle part of solution was siphoned off after settling for 30 minutes to achieve the WAF from the nominal 100 mg/L test item loading rate. WAF of l 00 mg/L solution was regarded as 100 mg/L of nominal concentration and 67, 45, 30, 20 mg/L of test solutions were prepared by serial dilution method.
A I 00 mL portion of prepared each solution was distributed to tlu·ee replicate 250 mL volume Erlenmeyer flasks. The dilution water (algae culture medium) only was used for the control group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The 72ru-ECso values expressed in terms of the nominal loading rate of SEZ-250 to Pseudokirchneriella subcapitαta were > 100 mg/L for average growth rate and 53 .5 mg/L for yield.
The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) and Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC) values expressed in terms of the nominal loading rate were 30 mg/Land 45 mg/L for average growth rate and yield, respectively.
