The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of test substance on the growth Selenastrum capricornutum, Printz, a freshwater green alga. These data were used to determine the EC50 and EC25 values (those concentrations that limited growth of this algal species to 50%, and 25% of the test population when compared to the control population, respectively). The EbC50 value (the concentration that inhibits of growth of this species to 50% of the test population when compared to the control population), the ErC50 value (the concentration that inhibits the growth rate of this species to.50% of the test population when compared to the control population) and a no-observed-effect concentration (NOEC) were also determined. The study was performed according to U S EPA 123-2, OECD guideline 201 and EEC C.3.
The freshwater algae were exposed to mean analyzed equivalent test substance concentrations of 0.261, 0.500, 0.641, 0.876, 2.44, and 3.87 mg/L over a 4-day period. Undissolved test substance was observed in the neck of the volumentric flask used to prepare the following dose levels of 0.641, 0.876, 2.44 and 3.87 mg/L. Treatment, assay medium control group (negative control) and the acetone solvent control (100 µL/L) group were all set in triplicate, with an initial average cell density of 10101 cells/mL (range of 6119-12565 cells/mL).
Effects of test substance on algal growth were based on the average analyzed methyl ester equivalent concentrations (ester plus acid, as ester equivalents) at each dose level. The effects of on cell growth after three days of exposure, relative to the combined control groups, ranged from 5.3% stimulation of growth at 0.261 mg/L to 20.0% inhibition of growth at 3.87 mg/L. The effects on cell growth after four days of exposure relative to the combined control groups, ranged from 3.3% stimulation of growth at 0.500 mg/L to 16.9% inhibition of growth at 3.87 mg/L.
The 3- and 4-day EC50 values for inhibition of growth were greater than a mean analyzed concentration of 3.87 mg/L. Similarly, the 3- and 4-day ErC50 values for growth rate, the 3- and 4-day EC25 values, and the 3- and 4-day EC50 values for algal growth was greater than a mean analysed concentration of 3.87 mg/L. The statistically derived 3- and 4-day no-observable effect concentration was 2.44 mg/L.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of test substance on the growth Navicula pelliculosa, a freshwater diatom. These data were used to determine the EC50 and EC25 values (those concentrations that limited growth of this species to 50%, and 25% of the test population when compared to the control population, respectively). The EbC50 value (the concentration that inhibits of growth of this species to 50% of the test population when compared to the control population), the ErC50 value (the concentration that inhibits the growth rate of this species to.50% of the test population when compared to the control population) and a no-observed-effect concentration (NOEC) were also determined. The study was performed according to U S EPA 123-2.
The freshwater diatoms were exposed to mean analyzed equivalent test substance concentrations of 0.271, 0.552, 1.10, 1.60, 2.73, and 3.36 mg/L over a 5-day period. Treatment, assay medium control group (negative control) and the acetone solvent control (100 µL/L) group were all set in, with an initial average cell density of 26438 cells/mL (range of 23990-34628 cells/mL).
Effects of test substance on diatom growth were based on the average analyzed methyl ester equivalent concentrations (ester plus acid, as ester equivalents) at each dose level. The effects on diatom growth after five days of exposure, relative to the combined control groups, ranged from 9.9% stimulation of growth at 0.552 mg/L to 96.6% inhibition of growth at 3.36 mg/L.
The measured 5-day EbC50 value for this species of diatom was 1.72 mg/L. The 5-day ErC50 value was 5.37 mg/L. The 5-day EC25 and EC50 values were 1.52 mg/L and 2.55 mg/L, respectively, and the 5-day NOEC was 1.10 mg/L.
