Conclusions:
In this study 1-Decanol, 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-heptadecafluoro- was found not to inhibit the growth of the freshwater green alga Scenedesmus subspicatus at the saturated solution level, containing 0.20 mg/L (initially measured concentration).
Executive summary:

The acute toxicity of 1-Decanol, 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-heptadecafluoro- (batch number P00/001) to the unicellular freshwater green alga Scenedesmus subspicatus was determined according to the principles of OECD-Guideline 201, at DR.U.NOACK-LABORATORIUM FÜR ANGEWANDTE BIOLOGIE in 31157 Sarstedt, Germany from April 01 to 04, 2002.

The study was conducted under static conditions over a duration of 72 hours with an initial cell density of nominally 104 cells/mL and a saturated solution as limit concentration, containing 0.20 mg/L. For the preparation of the saturated solution a suspension with a nominal loading of 100 mg/L was shaken for 96 h and centrifuged. The clear supernatant was used for the test.

Test vessels were coated with the test item for 14 days before the test started. Three replicates were tested for the limit concentration and 6 replicates for control. The test item was clearly dissolved throughout the test. Microscopic evaluation of the cells at the start and end of the incubation period revealed no morphological abnormalities. Water quality parameters of pH-value, measured at 0 and 72 h, and room temperature, measured continuously, were determined to be within the acceptable limits.

The concentration of the active ingredient 1-Decanol, 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6, 7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-heptadecafluoro- were analysed at the limit concentration level at test start and test end. Details of the analytical results are given in Part 10. The initially measured concentration of 1-Decanol, 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6, 7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-heptadecafluoro- was 0.20 mg/L. At the end of the test the concentration of the test item was below the detection limit of 0.009 mg/L. Sorption to the glass walls of the test vessels is unlikely as the walls were already pre-coated for 14 days before the test has started.
