Identification and stability of test item under the storage condition - The infrared (IR) spectrum of the test item measured at this laboratory was confirmed to be identical to that provided by the sponsor. The stability of the test item was confumed by comparing the IR spectrum of the test item after the completion of the experiment in a storage condition with that before the start ofthe experiment. - Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- LC-MS/MS analysis (at the start, before and after the renewal, and at the end of exposure)
- Vehicle:
- yes
- Remarks:
- water
- Details on test solutions:
- Required amount of the test sample was melted in a water bath of 40°C setup, was weighed and added into a container for preparation. The test sample added into the preparation container was melted again in a water bath of 40°C setup and daubed onto the bottom of the preparation container with a magnetic stirrer. Required volume of dilution water was added into the container so as to prepare each nominal concentration and stin-ed with a magnetic stirrer in a water bath of 20°C setup for about 48 hours. After that, the stirred solution was settled for approximately 1 hour and the middle layer solution, taken out from the settled solution, was filtered through a membrane filter (GV, 0.22 pm pore size, Millipore) by suction. The filtered solution was stirred in a water bath of 20°C setup for 30 minutes in order to recover dissolved oxygen concentration decreased by suction filtration. The stirred filtrate was used for test solution and divided into each test vessel.

The parent animals used for the test were same lot and their age and survival rate were 25-day old and 100%, respectively. Chlorella vulgaris of 0.1-0.2 mgC (Organic carbon content)/day per Daphnia was fed to the parents once a day.

- The 24-hour and 48-hour EL50of the test item for Daphnia magna were >100 mg/L and 9.5 mg/L, respectively.
- Executive summary:
The objective of this study is to determine the 48-hour median effective concentration (EC50) by conducting an acute immobilization study of the Substance inDaphnia magna.
Test Substance and dilution water were mixed and stirred for 48 hours. The test solution was prepared by filtering the stirred solution through a membrane filter. Five test concentrations of 100, 56, 31, 17 and 9.5 mg/L as nominal concentration (a geometric series with a factor of 1.8) [0.063, 0.087, 0.044, 0.060 and 0.032 mg/L as measured concentration of the soluble fraction] and a control were tested. Each test concentration was exposed to 4 replicated each containing 5 daphnia in 100mL for 48hours. The test was conducted in a semi-static regime with renewals at 24 hours). The concentration was analysed at the start, before and after the renewal, and at the end of the exposure by LC-MS/MS analysis.
During the exposure, the Daphnia were observed for immobility and signs of toxicity. Daphnia were considered immobile if they were not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test vessels. The 48-hour EC50 value with the 95% confidence limits was calculated by Moving average method. The 24-hour EC50value was estimated as ">maximum test concentration" since more than 50% immobility could not be obtained in the range of the exposure concentrations. The EC50was estimated by using Computer Program (running on Microsoft software "Excel") developed by the laboratory.
Immobility in the control during exposure was 0%, which met the criterion for the validity of the test (i.e. not more than 10%).
The Substance is considered to be a highly insoluble UVCB and therefore measured soluble fraction is not representative of the Substance as a whole. As a result the loading rates should be used. The report indicates that Substance causes immobility to daphnia. A dose response cannot be identified based on the complexity of responses and possibly confounded by the low solubility of Substance. Immobility to daphnia was observed in nominal WAF preparation of >17 mg/L loading rate across all study date. The nominal loading rate at which no immobilization effect was observed was considered to be 9.5 mg/L. Therefore it is proposed that the no effect nominal loading rate of 9.5 mg/L is used as a conservative surrogate for the EL50.
The 24-hour and 48-hour EL50of the test item for Daphnia magna were >100 mg/L and 9.5 mg/L, respectively.

Acute Daphnia:
The objective of this study is to determine the 48-hour median effective concentration (EC50) by conducting an acute immobilization study of the Substance inDaphnia magna.
Test Substance and dilution water were mixed and stirred for 48 hours. The test solution was prepared by filtering the stirred solution through a membrane filter. Five test concentrations of 100, 56, 31, 17 and 9.5 mg/L as nominal concentration (a geometric series with a factor of 1.8) [0.063, 0.087, 0.044, 0.060 and 0.032 mg/L as measured concentration of the soluble fraction] and a control were tested. Each test concentration was exposed to 4 replicated each containing 5 daphnia in 100mL for 48hours. The test was conducted in a semi-static regime with renewals at 24 hours). The concentration was analysed at the start, before and after the renewal, and at the end of the exposure by LC-MS/MS analysis.
During the exposure, the Daphnia were observed for immobility and signs of toxicity. Daphnia were considered immobile if they were not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test vessels. The 48-hour EC50 value with the 95% confidence limits was calculated by Moving average method. The 24-hour EC50value was estimated as ">maximum test concentration" since more than 50% immobility could not be obtained in the range of the exposure concentrations. The EC50was estimated by using Computer Program (running on Microsoft software "Excel") developed by the laboratory.
Immobility in the control during exposure was 0%, which met the criterion for the validity of the test (i.e. not more than 10%).
The Substance is considered to be a highly insoluble UVCB and therefore measured soluble fraction is not representative of the Substance as a whole. As a result the loading rates should be used. The report indicates that Substance causes immobility to daphnia. A dose response cannot be identified based on the complexity of responses and possibly confounded by the low solubility of Substance. Immobility to daphnia was observed in nominal WAF preparation of >17 mg/L loading rate across all study date. The nominal loading rate at which no immobilization effect was observed was considered to be 9.5 mg/L. Therefore it is proposed that the no effect nominal loading rate of 9.5 mg/L is used as a conservative surrogate for the EL50.
The 24-hour and 48-hour EL50of the test item for Daphnia magna were >100 mg/L and 9.5 mg/L, respectively.
