Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- Preparation of standard solutions: About 45 mL dimethylsulfoxide was collected in a 50-mL volumetric bottle, and the bottle with dimethylsulfoxide was treated as a tare at weighing of the test substance. The test substance was collected into a 10-mL glass centrifuge tube from cylinder, then added into the 50-mL volumetric bottle by decantation and weighed subtracting the tare weight. After the weighing, this solution was filled up to 50 mL with dimethylsulfoxide. The concentration of the test substance was calculated based on the measured weight, and this solution was diluted sequentially with dimethylsulfoxide to prepare standard solutions of 4 concentrations within the range of approximately 10-1000 mg/L. Dimethylsulfoxide was used as the standard solution at 0 mg/L.
Analysis of Test Solutions: The concentrations of the test substance in all test solutions were measured at the beginning of exposure and at 24, 48 and 72 hours after the beginning of exposure by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectromet1y (GC/MS).
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION:
1. Preparation of stock solution
For the preparation of the stock solution, 2.1 L of OECD medium (cooled in the refrigerator prior to use) was used as dilution water.
(1) 6.3 g of the test substance was collected into a 10-mL glass centrifuge tube from the cylinder. A 10-mL glass centrifuge tube, a stopper and tape for sealing the stopper were treated as a tare. The test substance was weighed subtracting the tare weight.
(2) The test substance was added into the dilution water by decantation while stirring with a magnetic stirrer, and then stirred for an additional 30 minutes.
(3) The resulting stock solution was allowed to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes and the supernatant was collected by decantation (about 1.7 L) prior to its use for the preparation of the test solutions.
2. Preparation of test solutions
For the preparation of the test solutions, dilution water was prepared by stirring 4 L of cooled OECD medium and allowing it to rest at room temperature in the same manner as the stock solution. For the preparation of the test solutions, the stock solution was mixed with dilution water in appropriate amounts for each concentration.

- Basis for effect:
- growth rate
- Remarks on result:
- other: The results were calculated from the time-weighted mean of the measured concentrations.
- Details on results:
- - Exponential growth in the control (for algal test): yes
- Observation of abnormalities (for algal test): In all test groups, the colour of the test cultures (as observed with the naked eye) showed a tendency to get more greenish during the exposure period. By microscopic observation at the end of exposure, in all concentration groups neither unusual cell shape of algae (contraction, expansion, damaged cell etc.) nor agglutination was observed, and the algae looked normal compared with those in the control group.
- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: A rapid drop of the concentration was observed in the first 24 hour window after the beginning of exposure after which the concentration remained relatively constant. Given the high volatility of the test substance, the most likely reason for the decrease of its concentration was volatilization from the test solution and test culture. Test solutions before inoculation were colourless, and showed no suspended solids, no floating solids, and no precipitates in any of the test groups. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- EC50 was determined by the least squares linear regression analysis of points recognized as straight in the concentration-inhibition curves. 95% confidence limits were calculated.
Growth rates (0 - 72hr) of each concentration group were compared with the control group using Bartlett's test for homogeneity of variances. When the variance was homogeneous: an analysis of variance (1-way ANOVA), Dunnett's, Williams's or Scheffe's multiple comparison test (Parametric) was used.
When the variance is not homogeneous: Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, Dunnett's, Williams's or Scheffe's multiple comparison test (Non parametric) were used.

72-hour ErC50 = > 14.4 mg/L
NOECr = 4.24 mg/L - Executive summary:
An acute, static 72-hour toxicity test was conducted with the algae Pseudokirchnerella subcapitata at nominal concentrations of 0, 300, 540, 960, 1700 and 3000 mg/L. The mean measured concentrations used in LC50 calculations were 0, 1.50, 2.03, 4.24, 7.02 and 14.4 mg/L. Because of the volatile nature of the test item, the test was performed in 500 mL Erlenmeyer flasks with stoppers. Control and test solutions were conducted with six and three replicates, respectively. In all the test groups, the temperature of the test solutions were 22 ± 2°C, the pH values were 7.8 to 10.4 and the biomass in the control cultures increased exponentially, fulfilling the test conditions.
Based on the mean measured concentrations, the 72-hour ErC50 was 14.4 mg/L and the NOECr was 4.24 mg/L.
