- Executive summary:
The acute immobilisation (EC50) of the test item to Daphnia magna (STRAUS) was determined according to OECD Guideline 202 / EEC Directive 92/69/EEC Method C.2.
The study was conducted under static conditions over a duration of 48 hours. 20 test organisms were exposed to each test concentration and control. The test item dilutions were clearly dissolved after filtration of the saturated solution in all tested concentration levels throughout exposure. The real test concentrations were calculated based on DOC-analysis: 9.2 - 19 - 40 - 84 - 165 mg/L.
The EC10 and EC50 values were calculated by probit analysis in the tested concentration range.
A reference test is carried out once per month with potassium dichromate as reference item and the reference toxicity determined. The EC50 -value of the reference item at 2.4 mg/L after 24 h was within the prescribed concentration range of 1.0 to 2.5 mg/L according to AQS, DIN Guideline 38412 L 30.
Water quality parameters of pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration measured at 0 and 48 h were determined to be within the acceptable limits.
The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled.
The 48 hour-EC50 for Daphnia magna was 28 mg/L (95% confidence limits: 27-29 mg/L).
