Remarks:

acetone

Details on test solutions:

The test concentration was chosen in accordance with the results of a no GLP pre-test (range-finding test), whose relevant Raw Data were archived under the code of the present study.
The main final test included five nominal test item concentration in a geometric series, namely 0.043, 0.094, 0.207, 0.455 and 1.0 mg/L.

Since the test item is insoluble in water, it was added to the reconstituted water by the means of a solvent vehicle (acetone). Therefore a solvent control (reconstituted water whit the same concentration of acetone used as carrier) was added in order to verify the absence of toxic effect due to the solvent; moreover a negative control (reconstituted water without test item) was prepared.

The test medium was prepared as follows:

the day of the test start, a 10000.0 mg/L Stock Solvent Solution (SS) was prepared by direct weighing 0.0502 g of test item into 5.0 mL of acetone.
The resulting solution was observed to be yellow, with no undissolved test item.
The test was performed in glass beakers filled with 40 mL of test medium. The test vessels were covered with glass plates to reduce the loss of water and to avoid dust entry into test solutions.
The test vessels were labelled with the internal study number and all necessary additional information to ensure unmistakable identification.

For the test concentration, for the negative control and for the solvent control, group of 20 daphnids were used divided into four replicates of five daphnids each. The daphnids were randomly distributed to the test vessels at test initiation. The daphnids loading rate was about 8 mL per one daphnid (5 daphnids for 40 mL, according to OECD guideline 202, 2004).

Test organisms

Test organisms (species):

Daphnia magna

Details on test organisms:

The study was performed on the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna Straus. A strain of this species was supplied by MicroBioTests Inc., Belgium in December 2011 (batch number: DM290911).
No acclimation was needed prior to testing.
It was daily fed with a fixed amount of the laboratory cultured green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (formerly Selenastrum capricornutum) and with a suspension of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

At the test start the organisms used in the test were less than 24 hours old and were not first brood progeny.

Study design

Test type:

static

Post exposure observation period:

The daphnids were observed by visual inspection for immobility after 24 and 48 hours of exposure (those organisms not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test beaker were considered to be immobile).
The immobilization percentage was calculated and reported

Results with reference substance (positive control):

In the negative control and in the solvent control 0% of immobilization was observed and no daphnid was trapped on the test water surface or showed other signs of disease or stress. These values comply with the validity criteria of the test, that provides a maximum immobilization or a maximum number of daphnids showing distress signs of 10% in the negative control or in the solvent control at the end of the test.

Conclusions:

The acute toxicity of test item YELLOW 2747 was tested on Daphnia magna under static conditions.

The EC0, the EC100, the EC50 value and the NOEC at 24 and 48 hours were assessed.
Results, calculated in terms of nominal test item concentration, were as follows:
