Test conditions:
Test vessels: Glass aquaria holding 100L of test media, fitted with lids and sealed to prevent losses of test material through volatilisation. The solvent control test vessel was set up in a separate laboratory area in order to eliminate the possibility of contamination by test material lost from the test vessels due to the volatile nature of the test material.
Experimental design: 2 test concentrations plus 1 solvent control (including 33.3 ul/l auxiliary solvent).18 fish per test concentration.Test concentrations: 0.0085 and 0.085 mg/l . Media renewal: Continuous at 800 ml/min. The diluent was supplied at a rate of 800 ml/min by a metered gravity feed system and the solvent stock solutions for the test concentrations 0.0085 and 0.085 mg/l were pumped at a rate of 1.6 ml/hour by a Harvard "22" multiple syringe infusion pump. The solvent control was dosed with tetrahydrofuran at a rate of 1.6 ml/hour by a Braun Perfusor Secura syringe pump. The dosing apparatus was setu approximately 24 hours prior to the start of the study to allow equilibration of the test concentrations. Method of initiation: Fish were placed, at random, in prepared test media. Feeding regime: Commercial carp pellets. Fish were fed approximately 2% of body weight daily. Excess food and detritus were siphoned from tanks daily. Loading: 5.3 g bodyweight/l (static volume).0.46 g bodyweight/l (volume in 24 hours) at 11.52 tank volumes per day.

- Executive summary:
TEST MATERIAL: ET-344 -SP
TEST TYPE: Assessment of Bioaccumulation of a Chemical Substance in Common Carp according to OECD Guideline No. 305C "Bioaccumulation : Test for the Degree of Bioconcentration in Fish" and the requirements of the Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry's Chemical Substances Control Law Clause No. 117, (1973).
TEST SPECIES: Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)
DURATION: 56 days
REULTS
Acute Toxicity to Killifish
The 48-hour LC540 from the exposure of killifish to ET-344 SP was calculated to be 8.5 mg/l.
Bioaccumulation in carp
The Bioconcentration Factors (BCF's) for ET-344 SP, in common carp, after 56 days were calculated to be 134 at a concentration of 0.0085 mg/l and 159 at a concentration of 0.085 mg/l.
Reference
The results from the analysis of the test water samples showed that the mean measured test concentrations for the 0.0085 and 0.085 mg/l test concentrations were 70% and 69% of nominal test concentrations respectively. The marked decline in test material concentrations in the water samples are considered to be a result of the highly volatile nature of the test material given that the test material has been shown to be chemically stable in water over a 24 hour period. From the calculation of test material half-life based on Henry's law constant the half life of ET-344 SP in water is calculated as being 2.55 hours. Therefore, it is considered that the dosing apparatus employed in the study provided the best possible method of maintaining the test material concentrations near nominal given that the diluent flow rates throughout the duration of the study varied by only +/- 1% and the volumes of solvent stock solutions dosed over each 24-hour long period were correct.
The results of the analysis of the test fish tissues showed that ET-344 SP accumulated in the body tissues of fish. The day 56 Bioconcentration Factors (BCF's) were 134 at a test concentration of 0.0085 mg/l and 159 at a test concentration of 0.085 mg/l. However, this level of accumulation over an eight week period is not considered to represent a significant value given that only BCF values in excess of 500 are considered to represent a significant accumulation of test materia1 (Nishi kawa (1990), EEC (1993)).
A BCF value of 439 was obtained on day 14 at the test concentration of 0.0085 mg/l and was observed to "decline" during the study to give BCF values 183 on day 28, 127 on day 42 and 134 on day 56. This "decline" in BCF value is considered to be due to an initial uptake of the test material into the fish body tissue followed by elimination by excretion and/or metabolism of the test material.
Description of key information
The Bioconcentration Factors (BCF) for ET-344 SP after 56 days were calculated to be 134 at a test concentration of 0.0085 mg/l and 159 at a test concentration of 0.085 mg/l.
Therefore, the test material, ET-344SP, cannot be considered to significantly accumulate in the tissues of common carp.
