Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The 72 h-EC50 of Trimethyloctylammonium methyl sulphate for freshwater alga ,Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, is as follows. EC50, NOEC, and LOEC is expressed in measured concentration.

Inhibition rate on the average specific growth rate,
- 72 h-ErC50 : 13.86 mg/L {95 % confidence interval : (12.83 - 14.97) mg/L}
- 72 h-NOEC : 1.12 mg/L
- 72 h-LOEC : 3.54 mg/L (Annex 6, 7).

Inhibition rate on the yield,
- 72 h-ErC50 : 4.22 mg/L {95% confidence interval : (4.00 - 4.44) mg/L}
- 72 h-NOEC : 0.42 mg/L
- 72 h-LOEC : 1.12 mg/L (Annex 8, 9).

No factors influencing the test occurred during the study.
