Summary:
Ceriodaphnia dubia are exposed in a static renewal system to different concentrations of effluent, or to receiving water, until 60% or more of surviving control females have three broods of offspring. Test results are based on survival and reproduction. If the test is conducted as described, the surviving control organisms should produce 15 or more young in three broods. If these criteria are met at the end of 8 days, the test must be repeated.

Scope:
This method measures the chronic toxicity of effluents and receiving waters to the daphnid, Ceriodaphnia dubia, using less than 24h old neonates during a three-brood (seven-day), static renewal test. The effects include the synergistic, atagonistic, and additive effects of all the chemical, physical, and biological components which adversely affect the physiological and biochemical functions of the test organisms.
