Reported statistics and error estimates:
The LC50 values and their confidence interval were calculated by means of a parametric model developed by Kooijman (1981).

Sublethal observations / clinical signs:

NOEC 3200 mg (2094 mg/l), but in concentration 1800 mg/l (1178 mg/l) one fish died (the death is assumed to be accidental).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
A 96 h EC50 value of 4128 mg a.i./L has been determined for the effects of the test substance on mortality of B. rerio.
