Details on results:
% Concentration loss over test: 23.2 - 35.1
All immobilisation recordings were at concentrations higher than the water solubility of the test substance. The solubility of the substance in the test water was determined to be 0.0008 mg/L.Therefore the test substance can be classified as non-toxic to invertebrates up to the limit of its solubility.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance can be classified as non-toxic to invertebrates up to the limit of its solubility.
