- Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF)
In view of the difficulties associated with the evaluation of aquatic toxicity of poorly water soluble and multi component test items, a modification of the standard method for the preparation of aqueous media was performed.
An approach endorsed by several important regulatory authorities in the EU and elsewhere (ECETOC 1996 and OECD 2000) is to expose the organisms to a Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF) of the test item in cases where the test item is a complex mixture and is poorly soluble in water and in the permitted solvents. Using this approach, aqueous media were prepared by mixing the test item with water for a prolonged period sufficient to ensure equilibration between the test item and the water phase. After completion of mixing and following a settlement period, the test item phase was separated by siphon and the test organisms were exposed to the aqueous phase, the WAF (which may contain dissolved and/or suspended and/or emulsified fractions of the test item mixture). Exposure was expressed in terms of the original concentration of the test item in water at the start of the mixing period (loading rate) irrespective of the actual concentration of the test item in the WAF.
Preparation of the water accommodated fraction
Five water accommodated fractions (WAF) were prepared with a nominal loading of the test item of 0.0800 – 0.253 – 0.800 – 2.53 – 8.00 mg/L (spacing factor √10). The loading levels are based on the results of a preliminary range finding test (non-GLP, open system).
For the loading levels of 8.00 and 2.53 mg/L an appropriate amount of the test item was weighed out. The test item was applied onto a glass slide. The glass slide with the test item was inserted into a brown glass flask with an appropriate amount of demineralized water. These dispersions were shaken for at least 24 hours with 20 rpm at room temperature. Undissolved particles were removed by membrane filtration (membrane filter 0.45 µm, RC, Macherey-Nagel). The filter was saturated in order to avoid adsorption during the filtration. The first 25 mL of the filtrate were discarded. The filtration was interrupted for 15 minutes to allow adsorption and saturation of the filter material with dissolved test item. Thereafter, the filtration was continued. The next 25 mL were discarded. The following water soluble fraction (WSFs) were used in the test. During filtration, the filter was always be kept covered. The solutions were checked via laser beam (Tyndall effect) for undissolved test item. The Tyndall effect was negative. The components of the dilution water were added to the WSF. The loading levels 0.0800, 0.253 and 0.800 were prepared by diluting the WAF with a loading of 2.53 mg/L with dilution water.
Test loading
Per definition of the WAF, all terms related to concentration level were given as loading level.
Control Six replicates (without test item) were tested under the same test conditions as the test item replicates. - Test organisms (species):

- Conclusions:
- In this study, N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3-propanediamine mono oleates (100%) was found to inhibit the growth of the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata after 72 hours with the following effect values based on nominal test item loadings and the geometric mean measured test item concentrations: The EL50-values with 95% confidence intervals for inhibition of growth rate (ErL50) and yield (EyL50) after 72 hours were 0.276 (0.116 – 0.669) mg/L and 0.197 (0.0908 – 0.247) mg/L, respectively. The EL10-values for inhibition of growth rate (ErL10) and yield (EyL10) after 72 hours were 0.232 (0.0993 – 0.638) mg/L and 0.0995 (< 0.0800 – 0.236) mg/L, respectively.
The EC50-values with 95% confidence intervals for inhibition of growth rate (ErC50) and yield (EyC50) after 72 hours were 0.00644 (0.00268 – 0.0166) mg/L and 0.00473 (0.00258 – 0.00583) mg/L, respectively. The EC10-values for inhibition of growth rate (ErC10) and yield (EyC10) after 72 hours were 0.00539 (0.00254 – 0.0158) mg/L and 0.00278 (< 0.00250 – 0.00571) mg/L, respectively. - Executive summary:
The toxicity of N-(Oleylalkyl)- 1,3-propanediamine mono oleates (100%) to freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was determined according to the principles of OECD 201 and Council Regulation (EC) No. 266/2016 C.3. The aim of the study was the determination of NOEL, LOEL, EL10, EL20- and EL50-values and NOEC, LOEC, EC10, EC20- and EC50-values of growth rate and yield over a period of 72 hours.
The study was conducted under static conditions with an initial cell density of 6442 cells/mL. As the test item is poorly water soluble substance,five water accommodated fractions (WAF) with the nominal test item loadings 0.0800 -0.253 – 0.800 - 2.53 - 8.00 mg/L (factor√10) were prepared as described in section 4.2.Three replicates were tested for each test item loading and six replicates for the control. The environmental conditions were within the acceptable limits.
The test media were clear throughout the test period. The concentrations of the test item N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3-propanediamine mono oleates (100%)in all test concentration levels and the control were analytically verified by LC-MS/MS at the start and at the end of exposure.
The measured concentrations of the test item were between 1 and 6% of the nominal value at the start of the exposure (0 hours) and between 1 and 2% of the nominal value at the end of the exposure (72 hours).
Therefore, all effect values given are based on the nominal test item loadings ofN-(Oleylalkyl)- 1,3-propanediamine mono oleates (100%).

Description of key information
Robust study summaries of three algae tests are included in the dossier. One with N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3 -propanediamine mono-oleates, one with N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3 -propanediamine di-oleates and one with N-(Oleyl alkyl)-1,2 -propane diamine (Oleyl diamine). The test solutions from these tests were prepared differently. Where the mono-oleates was prepared from a water accommodated fraction in OECD test media, were the di-oleates and oleyldiamine solutions were prepared by serial dilution of a homogeneous stock solution in natural river water (±14 mg/L suspended mater and ±2.8 mg/L DOC). The toxicity of both the mono- and di-oleates are expected to mainly originate from the diamine fraction and to a lesser extend from the salt(s) or free oleic acid (CAS no 112 -80 -1; LC50 fish > 100 mg/L Sigma-Aldrich) because under test conditions (pH±8) both the mono and di-oleate will be mainly dissociated (pKa = 7). For this reason, the diamine RSS is added to this dossier. But because of the different way of preparing the stock/test solutions, are the results of these studies not directly comparable.
Therefore only the results of N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3 -propanediamine mono-oleates (Scheerbaum, 2018) are used for this endpoint.
Due to the complex structure of N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3 -propanediamine mono-oleates (UVCB) and low water solubility, the WSF approach was used for ecotoxicity testing in the study from Scheerbaum (2019).
Per definition of the WSF, all terms related to concentration levels have to be given as loading levels because partly dissolved compounds and mixtures cannot be related to concentrations. Therefore, the EL10/50/100-values given were based on the nominal loading levels.
Algae test results with Oleyldiamine mono-oleates (Scheerbaum, 2019)
In the algae study with, N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3 -propanediamine mono oleates (100%) the inhibition of the growth of the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata evaluated. The following effect values based on nominal test item loadings were derived: The EL50 -values for inhibition of the growth rate (ErL50) and yield (EyL50) after 72 hours were 0.276 (0.116 – 0.669) mg/L and 0.197 (0.0908 – 0.247) mg/L, respectively. The EL10 -values for inhibition of growth rate (ErL10) and yield (EyL10) after 72 hours were 0.232 (0.0993 – 0.638) mg/L and 0.0995 (< 0.0800 – 0.236) mg/L, respectively.
In addition concentrations of the oleyldiamine fraction in test solutions were monitored but as indicated partly dissolved compounds and mixtures cannot be related to concentrations. The results observed for this test should be evaluated with care. The EC50-values with 95% confidence intervals for inhibition of growth rate (ErC50) and yield (EyC50) after 72 hours were 0.00644 (0.00268 – 0.0166) mg/L and 0.00473 (0.00258 – 0.00583) mg/L, respectively. The EC10-values for inhibition of growth rate (ErC10) and yield (EyC10) after 72 hours were 0.00539 (0.00254 – 0.0158) mg/L and 0.00278 (< 0.00250 – 0.00571) mg/L, respectively.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 0.276 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 0.232 mg/L
Additional information
Algae test results with Oleyldiamine di-oleate
The toxicity of Oleyldiamine di-oleate (N-[(9Z)-octadec-9 -en-1 -yl]propane-1,3 -diaminium di[(9Z)-octadec-9 -enoate]) to the unicellular freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was determined according to the principles of OECD 201. The test duration was 72 hours, test was performed in natural river water. Nominal test concentrations were: 0.0100 - 0.0316 - 0.100 - 0.316 - 1.00 mg/L. The measured concentrations of the test item were in the range of 74 – 91 % of the nominal values. Based on nominal concentrations the 72h-EC50 and 72h-EC10 for growth rate were found to be 0.41 and 0.323 mg/L respectively.
The effects are expressed as nominal values because the tests were performed with river water as they are intended to be used in an evaluation of the environmental risks based on the Bulk approach.
Algae test results with Oleyldiamine
One toxicity test with algae has been performed with oleyldiamine. For this study the following results were found: The 72 h ErC10 is 188 µg/L and the 72 h ErC50 = 507 µg/L based on the test substance (92.3% diamine and 7.7% primary alkyl amine). The effects are expressed as nominal values because the tests were performed with river water as they are intended to be used in an evaluation of the environmental risks based on the Bulk approach.
