The isolation of the gravid adults during the range-finding test occurred approximately 26 hours prior to the young be added to the test solutions and hence exceed the required time frame of 24 hours or less.

The reconstituted water had a pH of 7.8 ± 0.2 adjusted (if necessary) with NaOH or HCl and was aerated until the dissolved oxygen concentration was approximately air-saturation value.
The reconstituted water had an approximate theoretical total hardness of 250 mg/L as CaCO3. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- The test was carried out using 1st instar Daphnia magna derived from in-house laboratory cultures.
Adult daphnia were maintained in 150 mL glass beakers containing Elendt M7 medium in a temperature controlled room at approximately 20 °C. The lighting cycle was controlled to give a 16 hours light and 8 hours darkness cycle with 20 minute dawn and dusk transition periods. Each culture was fed daily with a mixture of algal suspension (Desmodesmus subspicatus) and Tetramin® flake food suspension. Culture conditions ensured that reproduction was by parthenogenesis. Gravid adults were isolated the day before initiation of the test, such that the young daphnids produced overnight were less than 24 hours old. These young were removed from the cultures and used for testing. The diet and diluent water are considered not to contain any contaminant that would affect the integrity or outcome of the study. - Test type:

- TEST SYSTEM
As in the range-finding test 250 mL glass jars containing approximately 200 mL of test preparation were used. At the start of the test 5 daphnids were placed in each test and control vessel at random, in the test preparations. Four replicate test and control vessels were prepared. The test vessels were then covered to reduce evaporation and maintained in a temperature controlled room at approximately 21 °C with a photoperiod of 16 hours light (546 to 577 lux) and 8 hours darkness with 20 minute dawn and dusk transition periods. The daphnids were not individually identified, received no food during exposure and the test vessels were not aerated.
The control group was maintained under identical conditions but not exposed to the test item.
The test preparations were not renewed during the exposure period.
EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS:
Experimental Preparation
A nominal amount of test item (200 mg) was dissolved in test water and the volume adjusted to 2 liters to give the 100 mg/L test concentration from which a series of dilutions was made to give the remaining test concentrations of 32, 10, 3.2 and 1.0 mg/L.
Each prepared concentration was inverted several times to ensure adequate mixing and homogeneity.
The concentration and stability of the test item in the test preparations were verified by chemical analysis at 0 and 48 hours.
TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS:
Standard Elendt M7 medium was used. The pH of the prepared media was 7.9 ± 0.3 and stored at approximately 21 ºC.
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
Any immobilization or adverse reactions to exposure were recorded at 24 and 48 hours after the start of exposure. The criterion of effect used was that daphnia were considered to be immobilized if they were unable to swim for approximately 15 seconds after gentle agitation.
RANGE FINDING STUDY:
- Test concentrations: In the range-finding test Daphnia magna were exposed to a series of nominal test concentrations of 0.10, 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L.
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study: Based on the results of the range-finding test the following test concentrations were assigned to the definitive test: 1.0, 3.2, 10, 32 and 100 mg/L. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Details on results:
- Cumulative immobilization data from the exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item during the range-finding test are given in Table 1*.
* Table 1 can be found in the any other information on results section, under the heading tables.
No immobilization was observed at the test concentrations of 0.10 and 1.0 mg/L. However, immobilization was observed at 10 and 100 mg/L.
Based on this information test concentrations of 1.0, 3.2, 10, 32 and 100 mg/L were selected for the definitive test.
Chemical analysis of the test preparations at 0 hours showed measured test concentrations to range from 64% to 73% of nominal. A decline in measured test concentration was observed at 48 hours in the range of 49% to 60% of nominal (67% to 86% of the 0-Hour measured test concentrations) suggesting that the test item was slightly unstable over the test duration. Inspection of the data could find no cause for the lower than accepted measured concentrations obtained at 0 hours.
Definitive Test:
Verification of Test Concentrations:
Analysis of the test preparations at 0 and 48 hours showed measured test concentrations to range from 61% to 87% of nominal value. Given the slight variability in results it was considered justifiable to base the results on the geometric mean measured test concentrations in order to give a "worst case" analysis of the data.
Inspection of the data could find no cause for the lower than accepted measured test concentrations obtained at 0 hours. Given that a similar effect was observed in the range-finding test it was considered possible that the test item had limited solubility in the test water.
The geometric mean measured test concentrations were determined to be:

32 21 66
100 73 73 - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The EC50 value and associated confidence limits at 24 hours and the slope of the response curve and its standard error were calculated by the maximum-likelihood probit method (Finney, 1971) using the ToxCalc computer software package (ToxCalc, 1999). At 48 hours the EC50 value was calculated using the geometric mean method as follows:
EC50 value = √ C1 x C2
Where:
C1 = concentration showing 0% immobilization
C2 = concentration showing 100% immobilization
Probit analysis is used where two or more partial responses to exposure are shown.
If there is no immobilization between 0% and 100% immobilization, then the geometric mean of the highest test concentration showing no lethality and the lowest test concentration showing 100% lethality is calculated. The concentrations resulting in 0% and 100% immobilization will be the 95% confidence limits.
Geometric Mean Measured Test Concentrations:
The geometric mean measured test concentrations of the samples were calculated as follows using the measured test concentrations of replicates R1 – R4 pooled:
GM = √C0C1
Where:
GM = geometric mean measured test concentration (mg/L)
C0 = measured concentration at the start of the test (mg/L)
C1 = measured concentration at the end of the test (mg/L) - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item has been investigated and gave the following results based on the geometric mean measured test concentrations:

Introduction:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of the test item to Daphnia magna. The method followed was designed to be compatible with the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (April 2004) No 202, "Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test" referenced as Method C.2 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008.
Methods:….
Following a preliminary range-finding test, twenty daphnids (4 replicates of 5 animals) were exposed to an aqueous solution of the test item at nominal concentrations of 1.0, 3.2, 10, 32 and 100 mg/L for 48 hours at a temperature of approximately 21°C under static test conditions. The number of immobilized daphnia were recorded after 24 and 48 hours.
Results:
Analysis of the test preparations at 0 and 48 hours showed measured test concentrations to range from 61% to 87% of nominal value. Given the slight variability in results it was considered justifiable to base the results on the geometric mean measured test concentrations in order to give a "worst case" analysis of the data.
Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item gave the following results:

Immobilization Data
Cumulative immobilization data from the exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item during the definitive test are given in Table 2*.
Analysis of the immobilization data by the probit method (Finney, 1971) at 24 hours and the geometric mean method at 48 hours based on the geometric mean measured test concentrations gave the following results:

The No Observed Effect Concentration after 24 and 48 hours exposure was 2.0 mg/L. The Lowest Observed Effect Concentration after 24 and 48 hours exposure was 6.9 mg/L.
The slope and standard error of the response curve at 24 hours were 1.9 (SE = 0.31). Due to the nature of the data it was not possible to calculate the slope and error of response curve at 48 hours.

All control and test preparations were observed to be clear colorless solutions throughout the duration of the test.
