Executive summary:

Data available from various sources for test chemical has been reviewed to determine the toxicity of the test chemical on fish: the studies are as mentioned below.

The Primary study outlines the effect of test chemical on the early life stage of zebrafish the test was conducted in accordance with OECD 236 guidelines, fish embryo toxicity test. Seven different concentrations was selected to evaluate the median lethal concentration i.e., 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 μM. Test was conducted for the period of 120 h, in semi static conditions, and the median lethal concentration for 96 h was determined to be 1.77 mg/L (5.2µM).

The Secondary study outlines the effect of test chemical on the fish for the period of 96.0 h. the test was conducted in accordance with OECD 203 guidelines. After the exposure period the median lethal concentration was determiend to be >5 mg/L.

The toxicity range of the test chemical was determined to be 1.77 -5.0 mg/L. As per new CLP classification criteria the test chemical can be classified into aquatic chronic category 2.
