The expected EC50 for inhibition of both growth rate and yield was between concentrations obtained in WAFs prepared at loading rates of 1.0 and 10 mg/L.All three WAFs were analysed. Quantification was based on the peak area of the major component, as described in WIL Research Project 509995. The initial concentration in the WAFs prepared at 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L was 0.86, 10 and 97 mg/L, respectively. These concentrations remained stable during the first 24 hours of exposure (92-97% of initial). At the end of the 72-hour test period the lowest concentration had decreased to 78% of initial, while the two higher concentrations were still in agreement with initial (81-84%).
All test conditions were maintained within the limits prescribed by the study plan.Final testAll WAFs were analysed. Quantification was based on the peak area of the major component, as described in WIL Research Project 509995. The initial concentration in the WAFs prepared at 0.2, 0.6, 2.0, 6.0 and 20 mg/L was 0.22, 0.59, 2.2, 6.1 and 20 mg/L, respectively. These concentrations remained stable during the first 24 hours of exposure (90-101% of initial). At the end of the 72-hour test period the lowest concentration had decreased to 78% of initial, while all higher concentrations were still in agreement with initial (83-91%). Samples taken from the 2.0 mg/L WAF with and without algae showed similar concentrations during the test period. Based on these results, the average exposure concentrations were calculated.Inhibition of growth rate and inhibition of yieldInhibition of growth rate increased with increasing concentration of Phenol, 1,1-dimethylpropyl derivs. from 0.20 mg/L upwards resulting in 97% inhibition at a TWA concentration of 18 mg/L. Statistically significant inhibition of growth rate was found at test concentrations of 0.20 mg/L and higher. However, biologically significant inhibition (≥10% inhibition of growth rate) was observed only at test concentrations of 2.1 mg/L and higher.Inhibition of yield increased with increasing concentration of Phenol, 1,1-dimethylpropyl derivs. From 0.20 mg/L upwards resulting in >95% inhibition at and above a TWA concentration of 5.8 mg/L. Statistically significant inhibition of yield was found at test concentrations of 0.20 mg/L and higher. Microscopic observations at the end of the test revealed a normal and healthy appearance of the exposed cells when compared to the control.Experimental conditionsThe pH was within the limits prescribed by the study plan (6.0-9.0, preferably not varying by more than 1.5 unit). During the exposure period the temperature measured in the incubator was maintained between 21 and 23°C. Temperature remained within the limits prescribed by the study plan (21-24°C, constant within 2°C). - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Potassium dichromate inhibited the growth rate of this fresh water algae species at nominal concentrations of 0.56 mg/l and higher.The EC50 for growth rate inhibition (72h-ERC50) was 1.5 mg/l with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 1.4 to 1.6 mg/l. The historical ranges for growth rate inhibition lie between 0.82 and 2.3 mg/l. Hence, the 72h-ERC50 for the algal culture tested corresponds with this range.The EC50 for yield decrease (72h-EYC50) was 0.51 mg/l with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 0.49 to 0.53 mg/l. The historical ranges for yield decrease lie between 0.43 and 1.1 mg/l. Hence, the 72h-EYC50 for the algal culture tested corresponds with this range.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:

- Conclusions:
- The EC50 for growth rate inhibition (72h-ERC50) was 4.7 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 4.2 to 5.2 mg/L.The 72h-NOEC for growth rate inhibition was 0.56 mg/L.The EC50 for yield inhibition (72h-EYC50) was 1.2 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 1.0 to 1.3 mg/L.The 72h-NOEC for yield inhibition was <0.20 mg/L.

The study procedures described in this report were based on the OECD guideline No. 201, 2006; Annex 5 corrected 28 July 2011. In addition, the procedures were designed to meet the test methods of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, Part C.3, 2008; Amended by EC No. 761/2009 and the OECD series on testing and assessment number 23, 2000.
The batch of Phenol, 1,1-dimethylpropyl derivs. tested was a colourless to pale yellow solid of unknown or variable composition. No correction was made for the composition of the test item.
Handling of test item and preparation of test solutions was performed under dimmed light.
The test item was heated in a water bath (90°C) to liquefy and homogenize. Sub stocks were weighed for several projects. These sub stocks were stored under nitrogen in the dark and re-liquefied (100°C) and homogenized before use.
All test solutions were prepared separately at different loading rates applying three days of magnetic stirring to reach the maximum solubility of the test item in the test medium. The resulting aqueous mixtures were left to stabilize for 1-1.5 hours where after the clear and colourless Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were siphoned out and used for testing.
Six replicates of exponentially growing algal cultures were exposed to a control, whereas three replicates per group were exposed to WAFs prepared at loading rates of 0.2, 0.6, 2.0, 6.0 and 20 mg Phenol, 1,1-dimethylpropyl derivs. per litre. The initial cell density was 104 cells/mL and the total exposure period was 72 hours. Samples for analytical confirmation of exposure concentrations were taken at the start, after 24 and 72 hours of exposure.
All WAFs were analysed. Quantification was based on the peak area of the major component, as described in WIL Research Project 509995. The initial concentration in the WAFs prepared at 0.2, 0.6, 2.0, 6.0 and 20 mg/L was 0.22, 0.59, 2.2, 6.1 and 20 mg/L, respectively. These concentrations remained stable during the first 24 hours of exposure (90-101% of initial). At the end of the 72-hour test period the lowest concentration had decreased to 78% of initial, while all higher concentrations were still in agreement with initial (83-91%). Samples taken from the 2.0 mg/L WAF with and without algae showed similar concentrations during the test period. Based on these results, the average exposure concentrations were calculated to be 0.20, 0.56, 2.1, 5.8 and 18 mg/L.
The study met the acceptability criteria prescribed by the study plan and was considered valid.
