- Executive summary:
The 48-h acute toxicity of the test item to Daphnia magna was studied under static conditions according to OECD 202 (1984) and EEC Directive 79/831 (1984). Daphnids were exposed to the test item at nominal concentrations of 560 and 1000 mg/L. An analytical monitoring was performed. To produce the stock solution the test substance was weighed into water and homogenized with Ultra-Turrax and ultrasonic bath. During the study the dissolved oxygen, pH, water temperature and the immobilization rate were measured. Based on the number of immobile daphnids the EC values were determined. The EC0 value was 1000 mg/L (measured) and the EC100 was > 1000 mg/L (measured). The EC50 value was determined to be >1000 mg/L.
