Samples of the stock solutions being delivered to the test system were collected for analysis one day prior to the start of the exposure. Stock solution samples (~2.0 mL) were collected from the syringes, placed in glass vials and processed immediately for analysis.

- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: Stock solutions were prepared every three to five days during the test. The primary stock solutions were sonicated for 10 minutes, inverted to mix and appeared clear and colorless. Proportional dilutions of the primary stock were made in DMF to prepare additional stock solutions at nominal concentrations of 0.15, 0.30, 0.60 and 1.2 mg/mL. The secondary stock solutions were mixed by inversion and appeared clear and colorless. Stock solutions were stored under refrigerated conditions and fresh aliquots were placed in the syringe pumps every one to four days during the test. The stock solutions were delivered to the diluter mixing chambers (at a rate of 10.00 µL/minute) where they were mixed with dilution water (at a rate of 200 mL/minute) to achieve the desired test concentrations of 7.5, 15, 30, 60 and 120 µg/L.

- Method of breeding:
- Feeding during test : yes, Fish were not fed for at least 24 hours prior to the termination of the test to allow for clearance of the digestive tracts before weight measurements were made. To ensure that the feeding rate per fish remained constant, rations were adjusted at least weekly to account for losses due to mortality.

- Amount: The concentrations of selected pesticides and organic and inorganic constituents in the Artemia cysts are measured annually and the results from the most recent analysis

- Details on results:
- In general, the majority of the fish in the control groups and all treatment groups appeared normal throughout the test. Observations of unusual behavior or appearance included appearing small, weak, curled, morphologically deformed (e.g. crooked spine, swollen abdomen), erratic swimming, and lying on the bottom of the tank with little motion other than minor gill movement. However, these observations were infrequent, did not follow a dose-responsive pattern, and were comparable in the controls.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The data were evaluated for normality using Shapiro-Wilk’s test and for homogeneity of variance using Levene’s test (α = 0.01). Proportions derived from hatching success, post-hatch survival and overall survival were transformed by arc-sin square root prior to the test for normality and homogeneity of variance. The hatching success, post-hatch survival and overall survival data passed assumptions of homogeneity of variance but failed assumptions of normality. The hatching success, post-hatch survival and overall survival data were visually evaluated for monotonicity. The data appeared not to be monotonic, so the Mann-Whitney U-test was used to determine which treatment means were significantly different from the pooled control groups (p ≤ 0.05). For the mean time to hatch, total length, wet weight and dry weight data, the treatment means that were significantly different from the pooled control means were identified using Dunnett’s test (p ≤ 0.05). The statistical tests were performed using a personal computer with SAS software.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were exposed to tBuTPP low TPP at mean measured concentrations of 7.5, 12, 23, 47 and 100 µg/L under flow-through conditions for 33 days (a 5-day hatching period plus a 28-day post-hatch growth period). There were no statistically significant treatment-related effects on hatching success, post-hatch larval survival or overall survival at concentrations ≤ 100 µg/L. There were statistically significant effects on time to hatch and growth, however, these were not biologically meaningful. Consequently, the NOEC and LOEC, were 100 µg/L and > 100 µg/L, respectively.
Lethal concentrations (LC10 and LC20) for the hatching success and survival endpoints were empirically estimated to be greater than the highest test concentration, since there was less than a 10% reduction in any treatment group when compared to the pooled control group. Inhibition concentrations (IC10 and IC20) for total length were empirically estimated to be > 100 µg/L. The IC10 and IC20 values for wet and dry weight endpoints could not be estimated, since the estimated ICx values were extrapolated beyond the data range used in the calculation. - Executive summary:
Fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were exposed to tBuTPP low TPP at mean measured concentrations of 7.5, 12, 23, 47 and 100 µg/L under flow-through conditions for 33 days (a 5-day hatching period plus a 28-day post-hatch growth period). There were no statistically significant treatment-related effects on hatching success, post-hatch larval survival or overall survival at concentrations ≤ 100 µg/L.
