ACCLIMATION
Test animals were bred under similar (or the same) conditions as that used during the exposure period (holding water, temperature, background colour etc.), therefore additional acclimatization before the test was not necessary.

- Executive summary:
The aquatic toxicity of the test item was assessed using Daphnia magna in a 48-h Acute Immobilisation Test according to OECD TG 202 and under GLP. For this purpose, young Daphnia were exposed to aqueous test media containing the test item for 48 hours. Based on results obtained in a non-GLP preliminary experiment Daphnia were exposed to a single concentration of 108 mg/L (limit concentration). Potassium dichromate served as the reference control. A static test was performed as the test item was previously shown to be stable in the test medium for 72-h. The purpose of the analytical part of this study was to verify the concentration of the test item in the test medium. The analytically measured test item concentration remained within ± 20 % of the nominal during the test period of 48-h; therefore, biological results are based on the nominal concentration. Healthy, young female daphnids with known origin, history and acclimatization conditions were used. The test item and the control were tested using 20 Daphnia (divided into 4 concurrent subgroups) each. Each test vessel contained approximately 40 mL test medium. Fully characterized (content, physicochemical characteristics) ISO Medium was used as test medium. The immobilisation of the test animals was recorded 24 and 48-h after treatment. Environmental conditions were recorded. All measured values remained within acceptable ranges. All validity criteria were met and therefore the study was considered as valid. The 48-h NOEC was determined to be 108 mg/L and the LOEC and the EC50 values were determined to be > 108 mg/L.
Reference
Validity of the Study
Immobilisation was not observed in the control group and the dissolved oxygen concentration at the end of the test in control and test vessels was more than 3 mg/L in all cases. All validity criteria were within acceptable limits and therefore the study was considered as valid.
Analytical Results
The test item was not detected in the untreated control group. In the treated group mean measured concentrations of the test item were 104 % of the nominal at the start and 100 % at the end of the test. Since the measured test item concentration remained within ± 20 % of the nominal during the test period of 48 hours, the biological results are given at nominal concentration.
