Synthetic fresh water was used for culture and test purposes. M4 medium was used and aerated for approximately 24 h until saturation with oxygen is reached. Proper test conditions were maintained. No feeding during test was done. Measurement of temperature continuously during the whole test period in a separate vessel close the test vessels and measurement of pH and oxygen after 0h in an additional replicate without daphnids and after 48h in replicate 1 of each tested concentration were taken.The test substance was stirred in M4 medium for about 20 hours at 20 ± 2°C. Undissolved test substance was removed by filtration with a membrane filter. The test is fulfilled the validity criteria.
From the experiment, it can be seen that, the EC 50 value for 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (Sudan Orange 220) (CAS No.842-07-9) for daphnia magna was determined to be >100mg/l.
Based on result, the 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (Sudan Orange 220) (CAS No.842-07-9) was considered to be non toxic to aquatic invertebrates and considered to be not classified as per the CLP regulation.
Reference
Concentration control analyses
The test was performed without concentration control analyses, because the tested concentration was below the detection limit . The test item is stable in test water over a period of 72 hours

Additional information
Various experimental studies for toxicity to aquatic invertebrate with the target substance 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (CAS No. 842-07-9) were summarized as follows:
In the first experimental study conducted by BASF () determination of the acute effect on the swimming ability of the Daphnia magna straus was performed using OECD guideline 202. Limit test was conducted at 100 mg/l concentrations. The test substance was suspended in water. The daphnids were exposed to various concentrations of the test substance and compared to a control. Synthetic fresh water was used for culture and test purposes. M4 medium was used and aerated for approximately 24 h until saturation with oxygen is reached. Proper test conditions were maintained. No feeding during test was done. Measurement of temperature continuously during the whole test period in a separate vessel close the test vessels and measurement of pH and oxygen after 0h in an additional replicate without daphnids and after 48h in replicate 1 of each tested concentration were taken.The test substance was stirred in M4 medium for about 20 hours at 20 ± 2°C. Undissolved test substance was removed by filtration with a membrane filter. The test is fulfilled the validity criteria. From the experiment, it can be seen that, the EC 50 value for 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (Sudan Orange 220) (CAS No.842-07-9) for daphnia magna was determined to be >100mg/l. Based on result, the 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (Sudan Orange 220) (CAS No.842-07-9) was considered to be non toxic to aquatic invertebrates and considered to be not classified as per the CLP regulation.
Moreover, in the second experimental study conducted by SSS (2017), determination of the inhibition of the mobility of daphnids was carried out with the substance 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol according to OECD Guideline 202. A limit test at sample concentration of 10.0 mg/L was performed. Effects on immobilisation were observed for 48 hours. The test was performed under static conditions in a fresh water system at a temperature of 20 °C ± 1 °C. EC50 was calculated. The median effective concentration (EC50) for the test substance, 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol, in Daphnia magna was determined to be >10.0 mg/L for immobilisation effects.
Although the second experimental study result indicates that the median effective concentration (EC50) to be >10.0 mg/L for immobilisation effects. The classification is not possible since the data is not conclusive based on the classification criteria mentioned in CLP regulation ( 48 hr EC 50 (for crustacea) = >10 to ≤100 mg/L). Thus, based on the first experimental study (Key study), the substance 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (Sudan Orange 220) (CAS No.842-07-9) was considered to be non-toxic to aquatic invertebrates and considered to be not classified as per the CLP regulation.
Although based on the first experimental study (Key study), the substance 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (Sudan Orange 220) (CAS No.842-07-9) was considered to be non-toxic to aquatic invertebrates and considered to be not classified as per the CLP regulation, since it is classified in Aquatic chronic category 4 as per the Harmonised classification - Annex VI of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP Regulation), the same has been considered for the dossier.
