- Executive summary:
This study was performed according to OECD Guideline 202 and EU Method C.2 with GLP statement, to assess the 48h-acute toxicity of the saturated solution of the test substance to Daphnia magna, under static conditions.
In this study, a limit test was performed in accordance with the test guidelines to demonstrate that the test item has no toxic effect on the daphnids up to the attainable test substance concentration. Due to the low water solubility of the test item, a saturated solution of the test substance with 50 mg/L was prepared and was continuously stirred over 24 hours. Then, the dispersion was filtered through a 0.45 μm membrane filter. The undiluted filtrate of the dispersion was used as the test medium. Additionally, a control was tested in parallel.
20 test organisms were exposed to the limit test concentration and control. The test item concentration was analytically verified using DOC analysis according to DIN 38409 part 3, at the start of the test.
In the saturated solution, at 0.92 mg/L, no biologically significant effect was determined.
A reference test is carried out once per month with potassium dichromate as reference item and the reference toxicity determined. The EC50 -value of the reference item at 2.0 mg/L after 24 h was within the prescribed concentration range of 1.0 to 2.5 mg/L according to AQS, DIN Guideline 38412 L 30.
Water quality parameters of pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration measured at 0 and 48 h were determined to be within the acceptable limits.
All validity criteria were fulfilled.

Description of key information
EU Method C.2, OECD Guideline 202, GLP, key study, validity 2:
No acute effect up to the attainable limit of solubility in test medium.
48h-EC50 > 0.92 mg/L., corresponding to a loading rate of 50 mg/L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
To assess the short-term toxicity of the registered substance, (-)-(3aR,5aS,9aS,9bR)-3a,6,6,9a-Tetramethyldodecahydronaphtho[2,1-b]furan, to aquatic invertebrate Daphnia magna, two studies are available.
The first study (Noack, 2000), assessed as the key study, was performed on the registered substance according to OECD Guideline 202 and EU Method C.2 with GLP statement. Daphnids were exposed to a saturated solution of the substance, under static conditions. Due to the low water solubility of the substance, a saturated solution with 50 mg/L of the test substance was prepared, continuously stirred over 24 hours, filtered through a 0.45 µm membrane filter, and then the undiluted filtrate of the dispersion was used as the test medium. The measured concentration was analysed only at the start of the test, at 0.92 mg/L. No biologically significant effect was determined during the test period, therefore the 48h-EC50 value was greater than the maximum initial solubility concentration of 0.92 mg/L. The test substance had no toxic effects on Daphnia magna up to its water solubility limit in test medium at a loading rate of 50 mg/L.
The second study (Henkel, 1993), assessed as a disregarded study, was performed on the registered substance according to German guideline DIN 38412 part 11 with GLP statement. This study was not considered valid because the results were based on nominal concentrations while the measured concentrations were well lower than nominal and the substance floating on the surface, therefore the effects observed can be related to physical effects.
