- Details on sampling:
- The four highest concentration levels and the control were analytically verified via LC-MS/MS at the start (0 hours) and at the end of the exposure (72 hours) with algae. The lowest concentration level (0.500 µg/L) could not be analysed, because the Limit of Quantification (LOQ) is 2 µg/L. The implementation of a lower LOQ was technical not possible.
Adsorption to glass was analytically verified at the concentration levels of 5.00 and 15.8 µg/L with algae at the end of the exposure.
The vessels were rinsed carefully with deionized water before analysis to remove adhering algae. - Vehicle:

- Details on test solutions:
- Test item
N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine
Stock solution, media preparation
10.0 mg test item/L was freshly prepared with test medium. The dispersion was treated with ultrasound for 30 minutes at 40 °C.
Test concentrations (nominal)
Five concentration levels were tested in a geometrical series with a dilution factor of √10 (approximately 3.16): 0.500 - 1.58 - 5.00 - 15.8 - 50.0 µg/L. The concentration levels are based on the results of a preliminary range finding test (non-GLP, Erlenmeyer flasks, with headspace in natural river water).
Control
Six replicates (without test item) were exposed under the same conditions as the test concentrations.
Test container and pre-treatment
Sterile Erlenmeyer flasks (vol. 250 mL) with cotton wool plugs were used. A coating phase (saturation of the test container) was carried out. The test container were pre-treated with the appropriate test solutions for 24 hours under test conditions. Before the start of the exposure, the test containers were emptied and refilled with freshly prepared test solutions. - Test organisms (species):

TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Source/preparation of dilution water:
Test medium
Water of the river Innerste was used and its properties in terms of organic matter content and suspended solids are considered typical for European rivers and are close to those in the EU risk assessment methods. The water parameters and the geographical site are given in the table below. The river water was supplemented with 50% of the standard OECD medium to enable a sufficient growth of the algae (see table below). The supplemental dilution water compounds were applied in a concentrated solution (6.5 mL/L river water) in order to avoid changes of the parameters of the river water.
Storage conditions
The natural river water was stored at 15 ± 2 °C and at - 18 2 °C for at least 24 hours. Freezing was found to be suitable to minimize the content of vital natural algae cells of the water as well as to reduce microbial (bacterial) activity.

- Conclusions:
- In this study, N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine was found to inhibit the growth of the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata after 72 hours with the following effect values (based on nominal test item concentrations): The EC50-values with 95 % confidence intervals for inhibition of growth rate (ErC50) and yield (EyC50) after 72 hours were 16.1 (5.97 – 43.0) µg/L and 13.8 (5.27 – 36.2) µg/L, respectively. The NOEC-values for both inhibition of growth rate and yield after 72 hours were 5.00 µg/L, respectively.
All effect levels are based on nominal test item concentrations. There was no significant sorption to glass were in the test vessels. Therefore, the nominal test item concentrations were uses as basis for the evaluation. - Executive summary:
The toxicity of N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine (Batch no.:211401A Morris) to the unicellular freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was determined according to the principles of OECD 201 and Council Regulation (EC) No. 266/2016/Method C.3 from 2017-04-25 to 2017-05-03, with definitive exposure phase from 2017-04-25 to 2017-04-28 at the test facility.The aim of the study was the determination of NOEC, LOEC, EC10- , EC20- and EC50-values of growth rate and yield over a period of 72 hours.
The test item N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamineis an amber liquid UVCB substance, which is dispersible in water. The study was conducted under static conditions with an initial cell density of 6839 cells/mL. A stock solution of 10.0 mg/L was freshly prepared with test medium (natural river water, which was supplemented with the mineral components of the dilution water ) and treated with ultrasound for 30 minutes at 40 °C. Five concentrations were tested in a geometrical series with a dilution factor of √10:0.500 - 1.58 - 5.00 - 15.8 - 50.0 µg/L. Three replicates were tested for each test item concentration and six replicates for the control. The environmental conditionswere within the acceptable limits.
The concentrations of three components of thetest itemN-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diaminewere analytically verified by LC-MS/MS at the start and the end of the exposure.Adsorption to the glass wall was investigated at the start and the end of the exposure for the concentrations 5.00 µg/L and 15.8 mg/L.
The measured concentrations of the three components of thetest itemN-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamineat the start of the exposure (0 hours) were in the range of 106 to 191% of the nominal values. The measured concentrationsthe three compounds of the test item at the end of the exposure (72 hours) were in the range of < LOQ to 10% of the nominal value. Adsorption to the glass wall was found to be negligible.
The aquatic ecotoxicity tests with N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine were performed in river water to allow a PECaquatic,bulk/PNECaquatic,bulk approach and is considered to be conservative but more environmentally realistic than the standard method. This approach is based on PEC estimations representing 'total aquatic concentrations'. To characterize the risk to the aquatic compartment the PECaquatic,bulk is compared with the PNECaquatic,bulk derived from river water ecotoxicity studies (ECETOC, 2003).
In order to class standard laboratory toxicity study valid, it is of particular importance that – besides information on test substance, test method / conditions and test organism used – suitable precautions are taken to prevent the loss of test substance by adsorption and that exposure concentrations are based upon measured levels.
For ecotoxicity tests performed using the bulk approach, however, adsorption to suspended matter and DOC is acceptable and only adsorption to glassware should be accounted for. For a valid bulk approach test the concentration-effect relationship should be based on the sum of adsorbed and dissolved substance in the volume of the medium tested. One of the advantages of the bulk approach tests with these difficult substances is that in the presence of suspended matter, humic acids and/or algae, the residual sorption to glassware will be negligible. The results of these bulk approach tests are therefore much easier to interpret and more realistic, and if compared to PECbulkclearly provide a more appropriate assessment of risks for the environment. An individual test design was applied. Natural river water was used as dilution medium.
All effect values given are based on the nominal test item concentrations ofN-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine.

Description of key information
One toxicity to quatic algae test is available for N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine. The ErC10 and ErC50 observed in this study are respectively 13.2 and 16.1 µg a.i./L based on measured initial concentrations.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 16.1 µg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 13.2 µg/L
Additional information
The toxicity of N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was determined according to OECD 201 and EC No. 266/2016/Method C.3. The aim of the study was the determination of NOEC, LOEC, EC10- , EC20- and EC50-values of growth rate and yield over a period of 72 hours.
N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamineis an amber liquid UVCB substance, which is dispersible in water. The study was conducted under static conditions with an initial cell density of 6839 cells/mL. A stock solution of 10.0 mg/L was freshly prepared with test medium (natural river water, which was supplemented with the mineral components of the dilution water ) and treated with ultrasound for 30 minutes at 40 °C. Five concentrations were tested in a geometrical series with a dilution factor of
√10: 0.500 - 1.58 - 5.00 - 15.8 - 50.0 µg/L. Three replicates were tested for each test item concentration and six replicates for the control. The environmental conditions were within the acceptable limits.
The aquatic ecotoxicity tests with N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine were performed in river water to allow a PECaquatic,bulk/ PNECaquatic,bulk approach (ECETOC 2003) and is considered to be conservative but more environmentally realistic than the standard method.
The results of these bulk approach tests are much easier to interpret and more realistic, and when compared to PECbulk clearly provide a more appropriate assessment of risks for the environment.
Following the bulk approach and considering that biodegradation as possible reason for the observed decrease is very unlikely considering the short time frame of refreshment and the fact that the observed sorption to glassware is negligible shows that the test organisms were fully exposed to the test substance during the test. It is therefore considered justified to use the nominal test concentrations to derive the effect values.
All effect values given are based on the nominal test item concentrations of N-C16-18-alkyl-(evennumbered, C18 unsaturated) trimethylpropane-1,3-diamine.
Under the study conditions, the 72h ErC10 and ErC50 are 13.2 and 16.1 µg/L respectively.
