Conclusions:
The bioconcentration factor (BCF) for test chemical was determined according static fish test. The BCF value was observed to 4 L/kg at dose concentration 1 mg/L and 40 L/kg at dose concentration 0.1 mg/L on test organism Cyprinus carpio during 6 weeks period. On the basis of BCF values it is concluded that test chemical is non bioaccumulative.
Executive summary:

Bioaccumulation test was conducted for 8 weeks for determination the bioconcentration factor (BCF) of test chemical on test organism Cyprinus carpio.Nominal concentrations used in the study are 1st Concentration area: 1 mg/L, 2nd Concentration area: 0.1 mg/L and Range finding study was carried out on Rice fish (Oryzias latipes) TLm(48h) 100 ppm(w/v). Thus the bioconcentration factor (BCF) for test chemical was determined according static fish test. The BCF value was observed to 4 L/kg at dose concentration 1 mg/L and 40 L/kg at dose concentration 0.1 mg/L on test organism Cyprinus carpio during 6 weeks period. On the basis of BCF values it is concluded that test chemical is non bioaccumulative.

Description of key information

Bioaccumulation test was conducted for 8 weeks for determination the bioconcentration factor (BCF) of test chemical on test organism Cyprinus carpio.Nominal concentrations used in the study are 1st Concentration area: 1 mg/L, 2nd Concentration area: 0.1 mg/L and Range finding study was carried out on Rice fish (Oryzias latipes) TLm(48h) 100 ppm(w/v). Thus the bioconcentration factor (BCF) for test chemical was determined according static fish test. The BCF value was observed to 4 L/kg at dose concentration 1 mg/L and 40 L/kg at dose concentration 0.1 mg/L on test organism Cyprinus carpio during 6 weeks period. On the basis of BCF values it is concluded that test chemical is non bioaccumulative.
