Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION:
- Method: Preparation of test solutions started with loading rates individually prepared at 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L in the initial combined limit/range-finding and range-finding tests, and a loading rate of 100 mg/L in the subsequent limit test. An overnight period of magnetic stirring was applied to ensure maximum dissolution of the test item in medium. Thereafter, the aqueous Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were collected by means of filtration through a 0.45 µm membrane filter (RC55, Whatman) and used as test concentrations.
- Evidence of undissolved material: The two highest WAFs were clear and slightly pink, while all remaining test solutions were clear and colorless at the end of the preparation procedure. No Tyndall effect was observed in any of the test solutions when they were observed with a laser pen.
At the end of the range-finding test, a floating layer and undissolved material were observed in the solution of the highest test concentration. In the limit test, a pink colored coating of the test vessels was observed from 48 hours of exposure onwards. Additionally, small pink-colored bubbles were observed floating on the surface of respective test solutions.
- Controls: Test medium without test item or other additives.

Thereafter, cell densities were determined by spectrophotometric measurement of samples at 680 nm using a spectrophotometer with immersion probe (pathlength =20 mm). Algal medium was used as blank. Two extra test vessel per concentration without algae were used as background for the determination of the algal cell density.
COMBINED LIMIT/ RANGE-FINDING STUDY
- Test concentrations: 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study: no, growth rate inhibition and yield inhibition were found to decrease with increasing test concentration, whereby the inhibition observed at the lowest test concentration was comparable to the inhibition observed in the extra control without the calcium and magnesium salts. Therefore, it was decided to repeat thetest as a range-finding test to investigate the reproducibility of the outcomes.
REPEATED RANGE-FINDING STUDY
- Test concentrations: 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L
- Results used to determined the conditions for the definitive study: yes, the results of the first range-finding study were confirmed and based on the results of both preceding tests it was decided to perform a limit test as the final study using a limit concentration of 100 mg/L. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Details on results:
- - In two preliminary tests, algal growth was observed to be less affected at higher test concentrations. This indicated that the inhibition observed in the combined limit/range-finding test had more likely been related to the reduced levels of nutrient salts rather than a toxic effect due to exposure to the test item. The results suggest that the test item had a compensating effect on growth inhibition considering that the effects observed in the control group without calcium and magnesium salts were almost identical to the dose level of 1.0 mg/L in the combined limit/range-finding test.
- Results of analysis showed that the test item was decreased to 20-47% of initial after 24 hours and to 11- 91% after 72 hours in the first range-finding study. In the final test, the test concentration was decreased to 71-75% of initial after 24 hours and to 29-49% of initial after 72 hours. Based on these results, the TWA for the limit dose was calculated to be 0.35 mg/L. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid? Yes
- 72h-ErC50: 0.99 mg/L (95% CI: 0.97-1.0 mg/L)
- Other: the result fell within the historical data range. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- An effect was considered to be significant if statistical analysis of the data obtained for the test concentrations compared with those obtained in the negative control revealed significant inhibition of growth rate or inhibition of yield (Two-sample t-test Procedure, α=0.05, one-sided, smaller).
The calculations were performed with ToxRat Professional v. 3.2.1. (ToxRat Solutions® GmbH, Germany).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- see 'Any other information on results incl. tables'
- Conclusions:
- The 72h-EC50 for growth rate was beyond the range tested, i.e. exceeded an average concentration of 0.35 mg/L being considered the maximum soluble concentration in a filtrate prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. The 72h-NOEC for growth rate inhibition was 0.35 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the effect of C.I. Pigment Red 81:2 on the growth rate of fresh water algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) after 72 hours of exposure. The study was conducted in accordance with OECD 201 and GLP.
A combined limit/range-finding study was performed with test solutions prepared individually at loading rates of 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L by applying an overnight of magnetic stirring to reach maximum dissolution of the test item in the test medium. The resulting aqueous mixtures were filtered through 0.45 µm membrane filters, whereafter the Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were used for testing. The same preparation of test solutions was used for the final test.
In the final test, six replicates of exponentially growing algal cultures were exposed to a WAF prepared at a limit concentration of 100 mg/L. The initial algal cell density was 10^4cells/mL. Samples were taken from the 0 mg/L and the 100 mg/L test solution and analysed for confirmation of actual exposure concentrations at the start and after 24 and 72 hours of exposure. Test concentrations were 71 -75% of initial after 24 hours and 29 -49% of initial after 72 hours. Based on these results, the time weighted average (TWA) exposure concentration was calculated to determine the effect concentrations. The TWA was calculated to be 0.35 mg/L.
In conclusion, under the conditions of the present study with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, no significant inhibition of growth rate was recorded at a TWA concentration of 0.35 mg/L being considered the maximum soluble concentration in a filtrate prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. The 72h-EC50 for inhibition of growth rate (ErC50) of C.I. Pigment Red 81:2 was >0.35 mg/L. The 72h-NOEC for growth rate inhibition of C.I. Pigment Red 81:2 was 0.35 mg/L.
All acceptability criteria were met and therefore the study was considered to be valid.
