- Age of parental stock: The Daphnia magna were less than 24 h old at the beginning of the test.
- Feeding during test: The animals were not fed during the test.

- Material, size, headspace, fill volume: At least 5 mL test solution/animal.
- No. of organisms per vessel: Five animals per vessel
- No. of vessels per concentration: 4 replicates
- No. of vessels per control: 4 replicates
TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Source/preparation of dilution water: Reconstituted water (ISO medium, according to OECD 202) was used as dilution water for both the range finding and definitive tests. The same composition of reconstituted water was used for the tests and for breeding the test animals. Separate stock solutions of individual trace elements were first prepared in deionised water. The medium was prepared of these different stock solutions, so it contained all trace elements (combined solution). See Table 1 for the composition of ISO medium.
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: The pH of the test solution was not adjusted and not varied by more than 1.5 units in any one test.
- Photoperiod: The test was carried out in 16-hour light and 8-hour dark cycle.
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED:
The immobility or mortality of the Daphnia was determined by visual observation 24 and 48 hours after the start of the test. Those animals not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test beaker are considered to be immobile.
The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility were determined at 24 and 48 hours.
The water temperature was measured daily; the oxygen concentrations and pH of the controls and the test solution were measured at the beginning and at the end of the experiment.
RANGE-FINDING STUDY
A concentration range-finding test was conducted to determine the approximate toxicity of the test item so that appropriate test concentrations could be selected for use in the definitive test. Ten daphnids (divided into two replicates) in each test concentration and control were exposed for 48 hours under semi-static conditions (in absence of stability data).
The test solutions were prepared by appropriate dilution of the stock solution.
- Test concentrations: The range-finding test was conducted at nominal test substance concentrations of 0.10, 1.0, 10 and 100 % saturated solution under static test conditions.
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study: The choice of the test concentration was made on the basis of the results of a preliminary range-finding test. Because toxic response was not observed during the preliminary concentration rangefinding test, a Limit Test was carried out using only one test concentration (100 mg/L) and one control group in a static system. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Executive summary:
The toxicity of the test material to the freshwater invertebrate, Daphnia magna, was investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 202, EU Method C.2 and and the Japanese guidelines YAKUSHOKHATSU No. 1121002, SEIKYOKU No.2 and KANPOKIHATSU No. 021121002 and JMAFF 2-7-7.
Acute toxicity of the test material on Daphnia magna was assessed in an acute immobilisation test, over an exposure period of 48 hours in a static test.
Because no toxic response was observed during the preliminary range-finding test, a Limit Test was carried out using only one test concentration (100 mg/L) and one control group in the definitive test.
The test concentration was analytically determined at the start and at the end of the experiment. Measured concentration was 95.7 mg/L at the start and 99.3 mg/L at the end of the test.
As the measured concentrations deviated not more than 20 per cent from the nominal in all cases, biological results are based on the nominal concentration.
Twenty animals, divided into four groups (glass beaker) of five animals each were used at the test concentration and for the control. All validity criteria were met during this study.
Under the conditions of the study, the 48h EC50 was >100 mg/L, the 48h EC100 was >100 mg/L, the 48h NOEC was determined as 100 mg/L and the 48h LOEC was determined as 100 mg/L based on nominal concentrations.
Reference
Validity
There was no immobilisation in the control group and the dissolved oxygen concentration at the end of the test in control and test vessels was no more than 3 mg/L.
All validity criteria were within acceptable limits and therefore the study can be considered as valid.
