SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material: 6K0001
- Purity test date: 97.5% (The test item was treated as 100% in purity.)
STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: The test sample was stored in a dark storage place at room te
mperature.

Sampling and analysis

Analytical monitoring:

yes

Details on sampling:

- Sampling method: Another solution sampled separately from the preparing container (at the prep
aration)
The mixed solution taken out with equal volume from the middle layer of the test solution in test v
essels in each test level (before the renewal and at the end of exposure)
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: immidiately pretreated

Test solutions

Vehicle:

no

Details on test solutions:

PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method:The test sample (100 mg) and dilution water (1 L) were mixed to prepare the nominal
concentration of 100 mg/L, and they were gently stirred with a magnetic stirrer for 48 hours at about
20°C. Then, they were settled for 1 hour at about 20°C, and the middle layer was collected as the
stock solution. Required volumes of the stock solution and dilution water processing similar to the
control without the test item were mixed and stirred in a preparing container to prepare the test solut
ion which was divided into each test vessel. This preparation was carried out for the start of exposure
and renewal of test solution.
- Controls:Dilution water without the test item, which was treated in the same manner as the test
solution except for collecting the middle layer

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:

yes

Conclusions:

48-hour EC50 was 0.209 mg/L and 48-hour NOEC was 0.126 mg/L.

Executive summary:

This study was conducted in order to confirm the effect of the test item on the test organisms below

the solubility of the test item in dilution water. As a result, 48-hour EC50was 0.209 mg/Land 48-hour

NOEC was 0.126 mg/L.

Since the test item concentration in the test solution at the end of exposure was not maintained within

±20% of that at the start in the preliminary study, the definitive study was conducted by semi-static

regime (renewal at 24 hours) to maintain the test item concentration. As a result, the maintenance rate

of test item concentrations in the test solution during exposure were 80.8-99.0% of the concentrations

at the preparation.

The environmental conditions were within the suitable range; therefore, it was concluded that this study

complied with the applied test guideline.
