- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: A stock solution with a concentration of 100 mg/L (nominal) was prepared with direct addition of the test item, mixed into the test medium (aquarium water) using ultrasonic bath (approximately 5 minutes). As a limit test was carried out, further dilution of stock solution was not performed.
- Eluate: aquarium water.
- Controls: The dilution water (circulated and filtered) was used without of addition of the test item.
- Evidence of undissolved material (e.g. precipitate, surface film, etc.): no.
- As the sample was only stable for 1 day, fresh test item solution was prepared by the method described above at each renewal period. - Test organisms (species):

- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM

- Health during acclimation (any mortality observed): Fish were bred in a well-known fish farm, under disease- and parasite-controlled conditions. Fish were observed during the acclimatisation and test periods, the fish were healthy. There was no mortality of the population for seven days before the test.
FEEDING DURING TEST

- Dissolved oxygen:
- 83 – 100 % of the air saturation value at the temperature used.
- Nominal and measured concentrations:
- - Nominal concentrations: 0 (control), 100 mg/L.
- Measured concentrations: 0 (control), 102 and 101 mg/L (at the start of the 48h-renewal periods); 91.7 and 96.2 mg/L (at the end of the renewal periods). - Details on test conditions:
- TEST SYSTEM
- Test vessel: one aquarium for the test group and another one for the control group.
- Material, size, headspace, fill volume: fill volume 5L test solution.
- Renewal rate of test solution (frequency/flow rate): every 48h (as seen in study 17/340-316AN, the sample was only stable for 2 days in aquarium water).
- No. of organisms per vessel: 7
- No. of vessels per concentration (replicates): 1
- No. of vessels per control (replicates): 1
- Biomass loading rate: The loading of the test aquaria was less than 1.0 g fish/L test solution at the start of the experiment.
TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Source/preparation of dilution water: aquarium water (circulated and filtered)
- Culture medium different from test medium: no.
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: no
- Photoperiod: 16 hours light and 8 hours darkness
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable): The observations of mortality and sub-lethal effects of the fish were carried out in the following intervals: at 3, 6, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. The test conditions (pH, temperature, oxygen saturation) were measured daily (twice after 48 hours - at the end of the first as well as at the beginning of the second renewal period) during the test. The body weights of the fish were recorded before the introduction of fish. The body weight of 7 fish per aquarium was registered. The loading of the aquaria was calculated on the basis of these body weights (1.0 g fish/litre testing liquid).
TEST CONCENTRATIONS
- Range finding study: Four fish were exposed to each concentration of the test item plus a control, for 96 hours under semi-static conditions (with 24-hour renewal).
- Test concentrations: In the range-finding study, the concentrations tested were 0 (control), 0.1, 1, 10, 100 mg/L test item. Four fish were exposed to each concentration of the test item plus a control, for 96 hours under semi-static conditions (with 24-hour renewal, in absence of stability data).
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study: Because no toxic response was observed during the preliminary range-finding test, only one test concentration (100 mg/L)) and one control group was tested in the definitive study in a semi-static system (limit test). As the measured concentrations deviated more than 20 per cent from the nominal at the end of the renewal periods, biological results are based on the measured test item concentration. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- All validity criteria were fulfilled; see 'Overall remarks'.
- Conclusions:
- The 96h-EC50 of the test item in zebrafish was found to be higher tan 81.7 mg/L and the NOEC was 81.7 mg/L (measured, geometric mean), both based on mortality.
- Executive summary:
An acute toxicity test on zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) was performed in accordance with OECD Guideline 203 / EU method C.1, under GLP conditions. Based on the results obtained in a preliminary range-finding test where no toxic response was observed, a Limit Test was carried out using only one test concentration (100 mg/L) and one control group in a semi-static system. The renewal period of the water was 48h, due to the stability of the test item. Seven fish per group were exposed to the test item or the control for 96 h. Test concentrations were analytically determined by means of a validated analytical method at the beginning and at the end of each renewal period and, as the measured concentrations deviated more than 20 per cent from the nominal at the end of the renewal periods, biological results are based on the measured test item concentration. All validity criteria were met. The 96h-EC50 of the test item in zebrafish was determined to be higher tan 81.7 mg/L and the NOEC was 81.7 mg/L (measured geometric mean), both based on mortality.
