Reference
Test item concentration: Analysis of the water samples in the uptake period showed that the test compound was hydrolysed in the test water only to a negligible extent as only <= 3.3 % AE F113225 was found in the test water.
Biological findings: Continuous exposure to AE F107892 at to the test water at this concentration did not cause any observable effects such as mortality or changed behaviour in the test group.
Tissue analyses: Uptake of AE F107892 into fish was very rapid and reached the equilibrium after 3 days. Based on the mean residue concentrations in the whole fish, in edible and non-edible tissue the mean BCF values for AE F107892 were 232 + 69 (whole fish), 257 + 108 (non-edible tissue) and 196 + 99 (edible tissue). Depuration occurred rapidly and evidenced by a depurination DT95 of < 3 days.
Conclusion: No significant bioaccumulation potential of AE F107892 or any metabolites was observed in the bluegill sunfish. Low steady-state concentrations, as evidenced by BCF values ranging from 196 - 256, were already achieved after 3 day of exposure. Depuration was very fast as evidenced by a depurination DT95 of > 3 days.
Description of key information
Results of BCF study reveal that the accumulation potential of the parent substance is low in aquatic organisms. As shown by a rapid depuration from fish, the potential for biomagnification through the food chain is also low.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- BCF (aquatic species):
- 232 L/kg ww
Additional information
The bioaccumulation potential of the substance was tested in a flow-through bioaccumulation and metabolism study according to OECD 305 (1995). The test was conducted with Bluegill Sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) as test organisms. The test period of 42 d was devided in a 28 d uptake phase and a 14 day depuration phase. The fish were exposed to a substance concentration of 10.60 ± 0.58 µg/L in a flow-through system. A daily dose verication was performed by 14C analysis (radio-HPLC). The test resulted in no significant bioaccumulation potential of the substance or its rapidly formed hydrolysis products in fish. Low steady-state concentrations, as evidenced by overall BCF values ranging from 196 – 257 L/kg, were already achieved after 3 days of exposure.
In conclusion, residues of the substance in water are rapidly taken up by fish reaching the plateau concentration after 3 day. This corresponds to a mean (whole fish) BCF of 232 L/kg . The depuration and thus clearance from residues in clean water is fast (> 95% in 3 days) and complete.
The test substance was dosed into non-sterile natural water, allowing chemical and biotic cleavage of ester bonds to occur and to form readily water soluble compounds (i.e. mono carboxylic acids). The formation of water soluble of mono-and dicarboxylic acids and their salts was also determined in the available study on biodegradation of the parent compount in waster and sediment. The observed DT50 for the parent substance in water/sediment systems was 2 - 3 days.
During the flow-through accumulation test there were 11 changes of the water volume per day with a concentration of mono carboxylic acids to range from < 0.1 to 3.3% at the inflow and in the middle of the tank. Fish was therefore mainly exposed to the lipophilic test substance during the test thus representing a worst case.
The observed accumulation regarding the partition between polar water phase and apolar adipose tissue – is most likely originating from uptake of the intact ester test substance as it is again indicated by the log Pow of 3.8 and a water solubility of 20 mg/L. In comparison the log Pow of the corresponding mono carboxylic acids being present as salts at physiological pH values of about 7 is by far lower and solubility in water significantly higher than that of the parent compound. Consequently bioconcentration factors at environmentally relavant conditions can be expected to be significantly lower than observed in the laboratory test.
