- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: The ground test material sample was weighed and dissolved in acetone to prepare 10000 mg/L of the test material solution. The solution was accordingly diluted with acetone to prepare 100 times as much as each test concentration. The test material solution of each concentration was added into the preparation container, and inner of the container was coated with the test material by evaporating the acetone under a stream of nitrogen. To remove acetone by volatilisation completely, the container was heated on a hot plate (approximately 40 °C) for approximately 10 minutes. Dilution water was added into each container to prepare each test concentration (nominal concentration) and stirred for 24 hours at approximately 20 °C. At the end of the stirring period the suspension was filtered with a glass fibre filter (GB-140, 0.4 µm pore size, Toyo Rosin) by suction. The filtrate was stirred for 30 minutes at about 20 °C to recover dissolved oxygen concentration decreased at the suction filtration, and then used as the test solution. These test solutions were divided into each test vessel. - Test organisms (species):

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED:
- Observations of immobility and symptoms of test organisms were conducted at 24 and 48 hours after exposure. Daphnids were considered immobile if they were not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test vessel.
- Appearance of the test solution was observed at the start and end of exposure.

- The test concentrations and the geometric factor were decided from the results of preliminary studies. - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes

- Effect conc.:
- 19 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- mobility
- Details on results:
- IMMOBILITY
- The minimum concentration causing 100% immobility at 48 hours was 50 mg/L. Maximum concentration causing no immobility at 48 hours was 13 mg/L. Immobility in the control during exposure was 0%, which meets the criterion for the validity of the test (i.e. not more than 10%).
OBSERVED ABNORMAL RESPONSE
- In the exposure level, lethargic, immobilisation and reduced activity were observed. In the control, no abnormal response (discolour of body, trapping at the surface of the water and so on), which met the criterion for the validity of the test (i.e. not more than 10%), was observed during exposure.
APPEARANCE OF THE TEST SOLUTION
- The test solutions in the 6.3-25 mg/L exposure levels were colourless and clear, and those in the other exposure levels of 50 and 100 mg/L were slightly red and clear in a concentration-dependent manner at the start and end of exposure. Appearance of test solution at the end of exposure was the same as that at the start of exposure. The test solution in the control was colourless and clear at the start and end of exposure.
CONDITION OF THE TEST SOLUTIONS
- The measured values of dissolved oxygen concentration, pH and temperature of the test solutions during exposure ranged from 8.6 to 8.8 mg/L, from 8.1 to 8.3 and from 19.8 to 20.2°C, respectively. The measured values of dissolved oxygen concentration met the criterion for the study validity (more than 13 mg/L at the end of exposure).
CONCENTRATION OF TEST MATERIAL IN THE TEST SOLUTIONS
- The measured concentrations of the test material in the test solutions at the start of exposure were 6.5-100 mg/L which were 101-108 % of the nominal concentration, and those at the end of exposure were 6.1-97 mg/L which were 97-101 % of the concentrations at the start of exposure. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid?
yes, the value was within the stipulated range (mean ± 2 S.D.) [mean ± S.D.: 0.83 ± 0.18 mg/L (n=9)] to background data in this laboratory.
- ECx: 48-hour EC50 = 1.2 mg/L - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The 48-hour EC50 value was calculated by Binomial test.
The EC50 was estimated by using Computer Program (running on Microsoft software "Excel") developed by our laboratory.
The results of the study were estimated by nominal concentration, because the measured concentrations of the test item in the test solution were within the range of ± 20 % of that at the start of exposure. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the 48-hour EC50 was 19 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
The short-term toxicity of the test material to aquatic invertebrates was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 202 and the Japanese testing methods for new chemical substances, under GLP conditions.
An acute immobilisation study was performed with Daphnia magna using five test concentrations of 100, 50, 25, 13 and 6.3 mg/L as nominal loading concentrations (a geometric series with a factor of 2.0) and a control. The daphnia were exposed to the test material for 48 hours in a static test regime.
The test material sample dissolved in acetone was added to each preparation container and coated to the inner of the container by evaporating acetone, the dilution water was added to the container to prepare each nominal concentration. They were stirred for 24 hours and then filtered with a glass fibre filter to produce each test solution.
This study was conducted in order to confirm the effect of the test material on the test organisms below the solubility of the test material in dilution water. As a result, the 48-hour EC50 was 19 mg/L. The minimum concentration of the test material causing 100% immobility at 48 hours was 50 mg/L, the maximum concentration of the test material causing no immobility at 48 hours was 13 mg/L.
The measured concentrations of the test material in the test solution were within the range of ± 20% of those at the start of exposure. The environmental conditions were within the suitable range; therefore, it was concluded that this study complied with the applied test guidelines.
Under the conditions of this study, the 48-hour EC50 was 19 mg/L.
