- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: To obtain fresh stock solution for the test, the test substance was weighed out to a precision of 0.1 mg and dissolved in acetone. This stock solution (ss1) was filled up to the final volume with deionized water. Defined amounts of stock solution were diluted with defined amounts of acetone and deionized water to prepare the stock solutions for each concentration. These solutions were freshly prepared daily and given for approximately 15 min. into an ultrasonic bath for degassing. The solutions were filled into separate flasks for the different concentrations. Automatic dosage pumps intermittently added exact amounts of these solutions into the water-flow to the treated tanks.
- Chemical name of vehicle: Acetone of analytical grade quality (Riedel-de Haen, D-30981 Seelze, Art.no. 32201, assay 99.5%, lot 10770) was used as a solvent with 0.1 mL water. - Test organisms (species):

TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Source/preparation of dilution water: The dilution water was purified drinking water (100% sand and charcoal filtered tap water)
- Intervals of water quality measurement: The water temperature of all tested concentrations and the control groups was recorded continuously
during the whole test period. Dissolved oxygen, pH, water temperature, conductivity and flow-rate were determined initially and every 24 hours thereafter for each of the test tanks
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: no
- Photoperiod: The light-dark cycle was 16L/8D.
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED : The fish were examined daily during the test period of 28 days and any abnormal behaviour (intoxication symptoms) was noted. Mortality was recorded at 24 h intervals. Weight and length of the fish were determined at the experimental start day, at day 14 and at
the end of the test at day 28

Reference
No effect occurred at the threshold concentration (0.1 mg/L) for chronic aquatic toxicity. First effects were seen at the next higher test concentration (0.32 mg/L). Therefore the Maximal Acceptable Toxicant Concentration (MATC) in this study was determined to be 0.18 mg/L (geometric mean of 0.1 – 0.32 mg/L). Thus it is reasonable to assume that the real NOEC lies above 0.1 mg/L.

Additional information
One key study on the parent substance were conducted in order to evaluate the effects of long-term toxicity to fish. All studies referred to herein were conducted in accordance with respective OECD testing guidelines and GLP. All effect values are reported as nominal.
In the key study a 28-day Juvenile Fish Growth Test according to OECD 215 was conducted under flow-through conditions with the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, 1994). Concentrations tested were in the range of 0.01 to 1.0 mg/L. Acetone was used as vehicle. In this test no effect was observed up to the concentration of 0.32 mg/L for 11 days. At day 12 effects started to occur, but disappeared after day 23. The NOEC (28 d) of 0.1 mg/L was established based on these temporary effects at 0.32 mg/L, the Lowest Observable Effect Concentration (LOEC). Mortality did not occur at any of the concentrations tested. The Maximal Acceptable Toxicant Concentration (MATC) is reported to be 0.18 mg/L (geometric mean of 0.1 – 0.32 mg/L).
Supporting information on the toxicity of two different metabolites of the test item is available.
A study on a metabolite was conducted according to OECD 215 under flow-through conditions with the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (2004). Concentrations tested ranged from 0.32 to 32 mg/L. The NOEC (28 d) was determined to be 32 mg/L (nominal) based on mortality and growth.
Two further studies with a metabolite using Danio rerio and a flow-through test design are available (2005 a and b). One study was conducted according to OECD 212 with an exposure period of 8 days and test concentrations ranging from 1 – 100 mg/L. A NOEC (8 d) of 10 mg/L (nominal) was determined based on mortality (2005a). The second study followed an OECD draft guideline for a two generation study and lasted for 206 days with testing concentrations between 1 and 10 mg/L (2005b). The study resulted in a NOEC (206 d) of 3.2 mg/L (nominal) due to a lower ratio of F1 females at the highest concentration of 10 mg/L.
