- Mortality of control: In the control group no Daphnia were immobilised or trapped on the surface of the water.
Water quality parameters of pH-value and dissolved oxygen concentration measured at 0 h and 48 h were determined to be within the acceptable limits. The dissolved 0 2 concentration was > 5.21 mg/L (60 % of the air saturation value at the temperature used). The pH-value did not vary by more than 1 unit.
Recovery rates of the test item were > 80 %. Therefore, all effects are given based on nominal test item concentrations. - Results with reference substance (positive control):

- Conclusions:
- The Acute lmmobilisation of the test item 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxyl (TEMPO) to Daphnia magna was determined according to OECD Guideline 202 (1999, Draft) and EC Directive 92/69/EC Method C.2. The study was conducted with 7 concentrations ranging from 1.56 to 100 mg/L in a geometric series with a factor of 2 under static conditions over a duration of 48 hours. 20 test organisms were exposed to each test concentration and control. All concentration levels of 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxyl (TEMPO) and the control were analytically verified via HPLC after 0 h and 48 h. Recovery rates of the test item were > 80 %. Therefore, all effects are given based on nominal test item concentrations. The EC50 after 48 h has been determined to be 27.4 mg/L.

Additional information
An acute toxicity test on daphnia has been performed with the test substance 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxyl according to the guideline TG OECD 202 and EU method C.2. Seven test substance concentrations ranging from 1.56 mg/L to 100 mg/L (factor 2) has been tested. 20 daphnids per test substance concentration were exposed to the test substance under static conditions for 48 h. The concentration levels of 2,2,6,6 -Tetramethyl-1 -piperidinyloxyl and the control were analytically verified by HPLC analysis after 0 h and 48 h. The recovery rates of the test substance were >80%. Therefore, all effects are based on the nominal test substance concentration. The EC50 has been determined to be 27.4 mg/L after 48 h. All validity criteria of the test guideline have been fulfilled.
