PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: The substance was powdered in a mortar for 1 min at 293 Kelvin. The concentration of the test substance in the stock solution was 500 mg/L. The stock solution was stirred for 30 min at 293 Kelvin. A serial dilution in dilution water was prepared. To each test vessel 10 ml of the respective dilution were added.
Test organisms (species):
Daphnia magna
Details on test organisms:

- Source: originally obtained from the Institute National de Recherche Chimique Appliquee, France and cultured in the laboratories of BASF since 1978
- Age at study initiation (mean and range, SD): <24h
- Method of breeding: comparable to test conditions, Feed: Whilst changing water Brewer's yeast was given, also
1 x daily grown Green algae culture
- Feeding during test: no

Additional information

A non GLP study on the acute toxicity of IBDU to Daphnia magna was performed according to the Directive 84/449/EEC, C. 2 in a static test system. For a test period of 48 hours an EC50 value of 500 mg/l was reported (BASF AG 1988).
