Test solutions

Details on test solutions:
Stock solution with nominal concentration of 100 mg/l was stirred for 48 hours in a sealed vessel. Test solutions were prepared by dilution with medium.

Test organisms

Test organisms (species):
Raphidocelis subcapitata (previous names: Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, Selenastrum capricornutum)

Study design

Test type:
static
Water media type:
freshwater
Limit test:
no
Total exposure duration:
72 h

Test conditions

Test temperature:
21 - 24°C
pH:
6,8 - 8,1
Nominal and measured concentrations:
The measured test substance concentration at the start and at the end of the exposure were below the detection limit. The measured concentrations of the hydrolyzed product at the start were 94-97% of the theoretical value and at the end of the exposure they were 89-98% of the theoretical value (assuming 100% hydrolysis).
Reference substance (positive control):
no
