Additional information

The acute Toxicity of tris(oxiranylmethyl)benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylate to Oncorhynchus mykiss was determined in a semi static 96-hour limit test. The test was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline 203 and the Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008. This study encompassed two treatment groups (one test item concentration at nominal 6.7 mg test item/L and one control) each containing 7 individuals.The test fishes were observed after approximately 2, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours test duration for sublethal effects and mortality. The samples collected at test start and after 96 hours were analysed via HPLC-method. In the control and the only test concentration of 6.7 mg test item/L, all fish survived until the end of the experiment and showed no sublethal effects during the exposure time. The 96-hour LC50was determined to be higher than 6.7 mg test item/L.
