Description of key information

Based on the findings of the study, exposure of Lemna minor to the test item based on nominal concentrations gave the following results: EC50 and NOEC (Frond number/growth rate) >100 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater plants:
100 mg/L
EC10 or NOEC for freshwater plants:
100 mg/L

Additional information

A study was performed to assess the effect of the test item on the growth of the freshwater plant Lemna minor. The method followed that described in the OECD Guideline No. 221 “Lemna sp. Growth Inhibition Test (March 2006)”. Following a preliminary range-finding test, Lemna minor was exposed to an aqueous solution of the test item at a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L (six replicate flasks for a period of 7 days, under constant illumination at a temperature of 24 ± 1 °C. The number of fronds in each control and treatment group was recorded on days 0, 3, 5 and 7 along with observations on plant development. Chemical analysis of the test preparations on Day 0 (fresh media) and Day 7 (old media) showed measured test concentrations to range from 99 % to 102 % of nominal and so the results are based on nominal test concentrations only. Based on the findings of the study, exposure of Lemna minor to the test item based on nominal concentrations gave the following results: EC50 and NOEC (Frond number/growth rate) >100 mg/L.
