Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Sampling method: Duplicate test water samples were collected from the batches of test solution prepared for each treatment and control group at the beginning of the test, and from two of the four replicate test chambers in each group 48 hours (± 1 hour) to measure concentrations of the test substance. Test concentrations were measured as zirconium (Zr) and fluoride (F) ion in samples. Results of the analyses were used to calculate mean measured test concentrations. Samples were collected from mid-depth and placed in plastic vials. One set of samples collected at each sampling interval was processed immediately for analysis. The duplicate set of samples was stored under refrigeration as back-up samples for possible analysis. A third set of samples (50 mL) was collected as above for the analysis of fluoride in the test solutions. Samples were analysed using an ISE probe for fluoride and ICP-MS for zirconium.
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: the samples were stored in a refrigirator.
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method:
Test solution concentrations were not adjusted for the active ingredient of the test substance during preparation, and all concentrations are based on the test substance as received.
A primary stock solution was prepared by mixing a calculated amount (0.2002 g) of test substance into a tared glass beaker. The contents of the beaker were rinsed with dilution water into a 2 L glass volumetric flask partially filled to volume. The solution was sonicated for approximately 15 minutes, then filled to volume, producing a 2 L stock solution at a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L, the highest concentration tested. The 100 mg/L solution was then stirred with a Teflon®-lined magnetic stir bar on a magnetic stir plate for approximately 15 minutes.
After mixing the stock solution appeared white and translucent, but with no visible precipitates. Aliquots of the primary stock solution were proportionally diluted with dilution water to a final volume of 1 L to prepare four additional test solutions at nominal concentrations of 6.3, 13, 25 and 50 mg/L. The solutions were stirred with a Teflon®-lined magnetic stir bar on a magnetic stir plate for approximately 15 minutes, and 250 mL of solution was placed in each of two replicate test chambers per treatment group. The negative control solution was dilution water only.
- Evidence of undissolved material (e.g. precipitate, surface film, etc): At test initiation, 24 hours and test termination (48 hours), the negative control and 25 mg/L test solutions in the test chambers at these nominal concentrations appeared clear and colorless. The 50 and 100 mg/L test solutions were translucent and white (increasing with increasing concentration) throughout the test.

- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: The negative control through 25 mg/L test solutions in the test chambers appeared clear and colorless during the test, with no evidence of precipitation observed. The 50 and 100 mg/L test solutions appeared translucent and white (increasing with increasing concentration) during the test, with no evidence of precipitation observed.
- 48-h NOEC ≥ 100 mg/L - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- not examined
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The absence of immobility in any of the treatment groups during the test precluded the statistical calculation of EC50 values at 24 and 48 hours. Therefore, the EC50 values were estimated to be greater than the highest concentration tested. The no-immobility concentration and the no-observed-effect concentration (NOEC) were determined by visual interpretation of the immobility and observation data. The highest test concentration causing no immobility at test end and the lowest test concentration causing 100% immobility at test end are also reported.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The acute toxicity of Reaction Mass of Zirconium Difluoride Oxide and Fluorozirconic Acid to Daphnia magna was determined in a 48 hour static test according to the OECD guideline 202.
Based on nominal concentrations, the 48-h EC50 was determined to be > 100 mg/L. The highest nominal concentration causing no immobility at test end was 100 mg/L.
It can be concluded that the Reaction Mass of Zirconium Difluoride Oxide and Fluorozirconic Acid (nominal 100 mg/L) did not induce any immobilisation of Daphnia magna after 48 hours of exposure.
The results of the test can be considered reliable without restriction.
