Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
LC50 was found to be 135 mg/l for Sodium naphthalene-beta-sulfonate in Daphnia magna for 100 hour
Executive summary:

In a long-term toxicity study conducted for Sodium naphthalene-beta-sulfonate in Daphnia magna, mortality effects were observed over a 100 hour duration. When Daphnia magna were exposed at a concentration of 135 mg/l, 50% mortality was observed. Therefore LC50 was found to be 135 mg/l for Sodium naphthalene-beta-sulfonate.
