Executive summary:

The short-term toxicity of the test material to fish was investigated in accordance with the Japanese Industrial Standard test guideline KO102 71 (Acute Toxicity Using Fish).


Japanese Rice fish (Orizias Latipes) were the selected species for this test, which were acclimated under the conditions of flowing dechlorinated tap water for one week. The test material was diluted with dechlorinated tap water and the selected test material concentrations were: 0 (control group, dechlorinated tap water) and 0.05, 0.1, 0.5 and 1 %.


The death rate at 1 % concentration after 96 hours was 57.


Under the conditions of this study, the 96 hour LC50 was measured to be between 0.5 and 1 %.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Short-term toxicity to fish - Key study (Takahashi, 2003):


The short-term toxicity to fish of the test material was assessed according to Japanese Industrial Standard test KO102 71 (Acute Toxicity Using Fish).The study was awarded a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).


Japanese Rice fish (Orizias Latipes) was the selected species for this test, which were acclimated under the conditions of flowing dechlorinated tap water for one week. The test material was diluted with dechlorinated tap water and the selected test material concentrations were:


0 (control group, dechlorinated tap water) and 0.05, 0.1, 0.5 and 1%.


Under the conditions of this study, the 96 hour LC50 was measured to be between 0.5 and 1 %.
