Additional information

One reliable study is available for the registered substance. The toxicity to aquatic algae was studied according to OECD TG No. 201 and Test Method C.3 from Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008. Algae cultures (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) were exposed to substance at nominal test concentrations of 0.2, 0.4, 1.0, 2.1, 4.6 and 10 mg/L over a test period of 72 hours (static test). Concentrations were analytically verified at the start and daily until the end of the test. Measured concentrations deviated more than 20% of the initial concentrations. Thus, the endpoints were based on measured concentration (geometric mean). Based on the average measured exposure concentrations in the biotic test and under the experimental conditions, the 72 -hour EC50 for growth rate was determined to 2.726 mg/L and the 72 -hour EC10 to 0.939 mg/L.
