- Details on results:
- Vortex depth and appearance measurements: The vortex depth was recorded at the start and end of each mixing period. And the vortex was observed to be a dimple at the water surface on each occasion at the start and end of each mixing period. Observations on test substance solubility: At the start and end of each mixing period, the 100mg/L loading rate suspension was observed to be water column with oily globules of test substance floating on the water surface. After 24h stirring and 1-hour standing period, the 100mg/L loading rate suspension was observed to remain a clear colorless water column in the mid-depth but with oily globules of test substance floating on the water surface. After siphoning, the microscopic inspection of WAF solution showed no micro-dispersions or undissolved test substance to be present. Mortality rate of parent animals: At the end of the test, there were no parent animal dead in the control group, which met the quality requirement that the mortality of the parent animals (female Daphnia) should not exceed 20% at the end of the test. At the end of the test, the mortality of parent animals in the nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF test group was 0%. The results revealed that there was no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) between the control and the nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF test group in terms of the mortality of parent animals. So according to the mortality of parent animal, LOEL was greater than nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF, NOEL was nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF.Living offspring by each parent animal: At the end of the test, the mean ± SD of reproductive output of the control group was 148±20 offspring per surviving parent animal. The coefficient of variation in the control group was thus 14%. Offspring were first produced in the blank control on day 8 of the test.No dead offspring and aborted broods were observed in blank control and nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF test group during the test. The total number of living offspring produced per surviving parent animal in each concentration of the test substance were estimated by T-test with Bonferroni adjustment. The results revealed that there were no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) between the control and the nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF test group in terms of the number of living offspring produced per adult. So according to the reproductive output, LOEL was greater than nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF, NOEL was nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF. Body length of the parent animals: At the end of the test, there were no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) between the means for nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF test group and the control in terms of body length by T-test with Bonferroni adjustment. So according to the body length of the parent animals, LOEL was greater than nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF, NOEL was nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF.Measurements of water temperature, pH, DO and hardness The intensity mean values of illumination at the start and the end of the test were 683 lx and 685 lx, respectively. During the test, the result of continuous monitoring of the water temperature was shown that the water temperature was 19.4°C - 20.2°C. The water temperature, pH, DO and hardness of blank control and the nominal loading rate of 100mg/L WAF test group were measured in new test solutions on day 0, day 1, day 8, day 9, day 13, day 14, day 18 and day 19 and were measured in old test solutions on day 1, day 2, day 9, day 10, day 14, day 15, day 19 and day 20. During of the test, pH of test solutions was 8.10 - 8.62; DO was 8.7mg/L - 9.4mg/L; hardness was 230mg/L - 240mg/L. Measurement of test substance concentrations The test solutions’ pretreatment and saved: 50mL test solution was accurately taken and poured into the separating funnel, then 20mL, 15mL, 10mL hexyl hydride was added respectively to extract for three times (5min for each time). After that, each extraction was collected and transferred into a 50mL volumetric flask and then diluted with hexyl hydride to 50mL. The actual concentrations of test substance in extractions were measured. The samples were analyzed immediately. Otherwise the samples (hexyl hydride extractions) were stored at 4°C until analyzed during one week.The result of the measurement of test substance concentrations: The results of the analytical method of test substance are shown in the final report of “Validation of An Analytical Method of NovaSpec Base Oil” (The report No. is A14048-T14037-1R). The measured concentrations of test substance in blank control were lower than the limit of detection (LOD = 0.863 mg/L) at 0d in the new solution and at 1d in the old test solution after the start of the test. The measured concentrations of test substance in 100mg/L loading rate WAF test group were all lower than the limit of detection (LOD = 0.863 mg/L) at 0d, 5d, 9d, 13d, 16d, 20d in the new solution and at 1d, 6d, 10d, 14d, 17d, 21d in the old solution.

The primary objective of the test is to assess the effect of chemicals on the reproductive output of Daphnia magna. To this end, young female Daphnia (the parent animals), aged less than 24 hours at the start of the test, are exposed to the test substance added to water at a range of concentrations. The test duration is 21 days. At the end of the test, the total number of living offspring produced is assessed. The reproductive output and growth of the adult daphnias exposed to the test substance is compared to that of the control(s) in order to determine the lowest observed effect loading rate (LOEL) and hence the no observed effect loading rate (NOEL). In addition, and as far as possible, the data are analysed using a regression model in order to estimate the loading rate that would cause a x % reduction in reproductive output, i.e. ELx (e.g. EL50, EL20, or EL10).
The survival of the parent animals and time to production of first brood must also be reported. Other substance-related effects on parameters such as growth (e.g. length), and possibly intrinsic rate of increase, may also be examined.

Discussion: Due to the low aqueous solubility and complex nature of test substance, so according to the guidelines of “OECD series on testing and assessment number 23, Guidance Document on Aquatic Toxic Testing of Difficult Substances and Mixtures”, the test substance solution was prepared as a Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF). During the test, the chemical analysis results showed that the measured concentration of 100mg/L loading rate WAF was lower than the limit of detection of 0.863mg/L. However, the test substance is a complex mixture, its toxicity cannot be attributed to a single component or a mixture of components, but to the test substance as a whole, the test results were based on nominal loading rate only.
No classification is applicable.

Description of key information
Assessment of chronic toxicity to invertebrates
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Fresh water invertebrates
Fresh water invertebrates
- Effect concentration:
- 100 mg/L
Additional information
A Klimish 1 GLP study conducted in accordance with current OECD guidelines is available to assess the effects of acute toxicity to Daphnia Magna. The acute toxicity of the test item to the freshwater invertebrate Daphnia magna has been investigated and gave a 21-Day Lowest Observed Effect Loading rate value of greater than 100 mg/L loading rate WAF. The No Observed Effect Loading rate was 100 mg/L loading rate WAF. This category of substances does not demonstrate any significant toxicity to aquatic organisms, nor does it contain significant impurities that could effect the outcome of the a specific study.
No classification is applicable.
