Details on sampling:
- Sampling method: samples for possible analysis were taken form both test groups at the start of the test and after 96 hours from the freshly prepared solutions. At the first renewal (t=24h) and at the end of the test from the 24h old solutions 2.0 mL of volume was taken from the centre of the vessels.

Vehicle:
no
Details on test solutions:
PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method:
Range-finding test:
Due to an expected low water solubility of the test item, a saturated solution (SS) was prepared. The preparation of the SS started with a loading rate of 100 mg/L applying a three-day period of magnetic stirring at room temperature to ensure maximum dissolution of the test item in test medium. This resulted in a hazy dispersion containing undissolved material. The obtained dispersion was filtered through a 0.45 µm membrane filter (Whatman; RC55). The filter was pre-conditioned with a small volume of test solution that was discarded. The resulting SS was used as the test concentration. Lower test concentrations for the range-finding test were prepared by subsequent dilutions of the SS in test medium.
- Evidence of undissolved material (e.g. precipitate, surface film, etc): All aqueous solutions were clear and colourless
Test organisms (species):
Cyprinus carpio

TEST SYSTEM
- Test vessel: beaker
- Material, size, headspace, fill volume: 10L, all-glass filled with 9L test solution
- Aeration: not during the test
- No. of organisms per vessel: 7
- No. of vessels per concentration (replicates): not reported
- No. of vessels per control (replicates): not reported

OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: 7.7 ± 0.3
- Photoperiod: 16h light daily

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) : Fish were considered to be dead when no reaction was observed after touching the caudal peduncle and visible breathing movements were absent. In addition, fish that were convulsing or showing other severe forms of distress not considered transient in nature and likely to become more severe before the exposure is terminated, will be sacrificed for humane reasons. These fish will be treated as having died in the test, based on OECD guideline on humane endpoint (ENV/JM/MONO/(2000)7).

Nominal / measured:
nominal
Conc. based on:

Basis for effect:
mortality (fish)
Details on results:

- Abnormal responses: none
Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Results with reference substance valid? yes
- Mortality:
- EC50/LC50: 96h-LC50 = 0.32 mg/L. the sensitivity of the fish was within the range determined with the historical data
Reported statistics and error estimates:
No LC50 values could be calculated because no mortality was observed at the maximum solubility of the test item in test medium.
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The acute toxicity of T003066 to Carp was determined in a 96-hour static test according to the OECD guideline 203.
The 96h-LC50 exceeded a mean exposure concentration of 0.0064 mg/L, being considered the indicative maximum solubility of test item in test medium. In conclusion, the test item had no mortal effect on Carp after an exposure of 96 hours at a mean exposure concentration of 0.0064 mg/L that was obtained in a saturated solution prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. The results of the test can be considered reliable without restriction.

Description of key information

The acute toxicity of T003066 to Carp was determined in a 96-hour static test according to the OECD guideline 203 (Bouwman, 2017). The 96h-LC50 exceeded a mean exposure concentration of 0.0064 mg/L, being considered the indicative maximum solubility of test item in test medium. In conclusion, the test item had no mortal effect on Carp after an exposure of 96 hours at a mean exposure concentration of 0.0064 mg/L that was obtained in a saturated solution prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L.
