Throughout this report, the exposure concentrations and the test results have been expressed in terms of the active i n g r e d i e n t j i ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ W i The study was conducted in accordance with EEC Methods for Determination of Ecotoxicity Annex to Directive 92/69/EEC (O.J. No. L383A, 29.12.92) Part C, Method 2 "Acute Toxicity for Daphnia" and the OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals No. 202, Part I "Daphnia Acute Immobilisation Test". Groups o f twenty Daphnia, less than 24 hours old, were exposed for 48 hours nominal concentrations of 4.27, 9.39, 20.7, 45.5 and 100 mg/1 (as active ingredient). The test media were prepared in Elendt M4 medium and to aid dissolution ultrasound treatment was employed. The measured concentrations o f ^ H B H H ^ H l i n samples unfiltered of media indicated that the intended exposure concentrations were adequately achieved (between 85 and 97% of their nominal values) and maintained (between 93 and 100% of their starting values). The overall mean measured levels were 4.01, 8.92, 18.6, 40.2 and 85.9 mg a.iA Observations o f the Daphnia in each control and test vessel were made after 24 and 48 hours. After 48 hours, 20% immobility had occurred at the highest concentration (85.9 mg a.i./l); the highest concentration at which no immobility had occurred was 40.2 mg a.i./l. The 48-hour EC*, could not be calculated but must be >85.9 mg a.i./l and the "no-observed-effect concentration" (NOEC) was 40.2 mg a.iA Under the EC. General Classification and Labelling Requirements for Dangerous Substances and P r e p a r a t i o n s , not considered to require classification as the 48-hour EC*, is considered to be greater than the highest nominal concentration, 100 mg a.i./l (mean measured level of 85.9 mg a.i./l). :7 INTRODUCTION DPT440/992118 Theobje ' - EC,) o ' was to determine the acute toxicity (48 hour median effect concentration [o Daphnia magna at 20C. The study was conducted in accordance with EEC Methods for Determination o f Ecotoxicity Annex to Directive 92/69/EEC (O.J. No. L383A, 29.12.92) Part C, Method 2 "Acute Toxicity for Daphnia" and the OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals No. 202, Part I "Daphnia Acute Immobilisation Test". The protocol was approved by Huntingdon Life Sciences Management on 7 July 1998, by the Sponsor on 17 July 1998 and by the Study Director on 3 August 1998. The experimental phase o f the study was conducted between l September and 20 November 1998 and the results of chemical analysis were issued by 8 December 1998. Information provided by the Sponsor indicated that the solubility o f j H | m Q i n water was 25% by weight at 35 - 40C and that Thr0UP ")Ut this report, the exposure concentrations and test results have been expressed in terms of the active ingredient. Also, the Sponsor indicated that at room temperature the test substance was a suspension in water and upon standing it would separate out into its component phases; accordingly, at the recommendation of the Sponsor, the suspension was warmed to 35 - 4GC (in a water bath) with gentle stirring to obtain an homogenous composition before use. The sensitivity of juvenile Daphnia cultured in this laboratory is periodically assessed using the reference substance potassium dichromate. The results for the most recent test performed prior to this study indicated that its 48-hour EC#, to Daphnia magna was 0.57 mg/1; this was within the range typically obtained in this laboratory (0.3 to 0.8 mg/1). :8: Compa TSCACBl Identity: Chemical name: iI Appearance: Storage conditions: Lot number: Expiry date: Purity: Sample received: TEST SUBSTANCE DPT440/992118 Pale-yellow slurry Room temperature in the dark 3 2 years from date of receipt CM 23 June 1998 D :9 : I contain TSCACS* Company sanaasd-D ossno. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE DPT440/992118 TEST ORGANISM Daphnia magna (Straus) used in this study were cultured in-house and were obtained from a strain originating from the Institute National de Recherche Chimique Appliqu (IRChA), France. Stock cultures of Daphnia magna were maintained in glass vessels containing approximately 1.5 litres o f Elendt M4 culture medium in a temperature-controlled laboratory at nominally 20 2C. A photoperiod of 16 hours light : 8 hours dark was maintained, with periods of subdued lighting at the beginning and end o f each light phase. The culture medium was renewed at least twice each week. Cultures were fed daily with a suspension of the unicellular green alga, Chlorella vulgaris, to provide 0.1 to 0.2 mg carbon per daphnid, per day. Culture conditions ensure that the stock animals reproduce by parthenogenesis. The day before the start of the study, all juvenile Daphnia were removed from the laboratory cultures. The following morning, juveniles produced by the gravid (egg-bearing) adult Daphnia were removed from the culture vessels and held in a separate holding vessel; these animals, which were less than 24 hours old, were used in the test. DILUTION MEDIUM The test organisms were maintained and the tests conducted in Elendt M4 medium (Appendix 1). The medium was prepared in reverse osmosis water. TEST SUBSTANCE PREPARATION Method of preparation Based on information provided by the Sponsor, the test substance was wanned (to c.38C) in a water bath and gently swirled to provide a homogenous mixture before weighing. At all concentrations, the test media were individually prepared by adding the appropriate weights of substance (17.1, 37.6, 82.8, 182 and 400 mg) to dilution medium in a volumetric flask (1 1); to aid dissolution, the contents o f the flasks were treated with ultrasound for thirty minutes before being made up to volume with dilution medium. : 10 : Com pany Sanitized.

The stability of the test substance in dilution medium under refrigerated storage conditions was determined before the start of the study (Table 2, Appendix 2). At the start of the definitive test, four samples (100 ml) were taken from the freshly-prepared control and test media; after 48 hours, the contents of the test vessels from each group were pooled and further samples were taken for analysis. They were stored in a refrigerator until two samples from each set were transferred to Huntingdon Research Centre, Cambridgeshire; one sample per concentration was analysed and all of the other samples remained in storage at Eye Research Centre in case further analysis was required. EXPOSURE CONDITIONS Experimental design A rangefinding test was conducted, followed by a definitive (limit) test with one test concentration (100 mg a.i./l) plus a control (dilution medium). Because 60% immobility occurred in the limit test it was repeated and 50% immobility was observed. Another test was then undertaken employing five test concentrations (4.27, 9.39, 20.7, 45.5 and 100 mg a.i./l) but this gave variable results. It was suspected that repeated wanning (to 38C) of the small volume of test substance in the sub-sample container used for the aquatic studies may have affected the chemical characteristics of the test substance. Therefore, a new sub-sample of the test substance was obtained and a definitive test was conducted with five test concentrations and the results are reported here. Twenty Daphnia, four replicates o f five animals per vessel, were exposed in each control and test group. The first instar Daphnia were placed in groups of five, at random into glass dishes containing 100 ml of medium to give a loading o f 20 ml medium per organism. The dishes were loosely covered. Test concentrations The preliminary tests employed test concentrations w'ithin the range 1 to 100 mg/1 (as active ingredient). The definitive test concentrations, which were selected based on the results of the preliminary tests, were: Nominal concentrations: 4.27, 9.39, 20.7,45.5 and 100 mg active ingredient/1. (Expressed in terms of the test substance as received: 17.1, 37.6, 82.8, 182 and 400 mg/1) Medium renewal Daphnia were exposed to the test or control conditions for a period of 48 hours without renewal of test media. : 11 : Com pany Sanitized. DOe=S not contain T S C A C B l DPT440/992118 Environmental conditions The temperature o f the test area was maintained at 20 2C and constant to within 1C during the study. Temperature was continuously monitored in an additional vessel containing the same volume of dilution medium. A photoperiod o f 16 hours light: 8 hours dark was maintained, with periods of subdued lighting at the beginning and end of each light phase. No supplementary aeration was employed and no feed was given during the exposure period. The temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen levels o f control and test media were recorded at the start and at the end of the study. CRITERION OF EFFECT Daphnia were considered to be immobile if they were unable to swim within approximately 15 seconds following gentle agitation of the test vessel. The numbers of mobile, immobile and floating Daphnia were counted 24 and 48 hours after the start of the study. EVALUATION OF DATA The "no-observed-effect concentration" (NOEC) was derived by direct inspection of the data on the immobility of the animals. An incidence rate of more than 10% is considered to be significant. PROTOCOL DEVIATIONS None. : 12 : Com pany Sanitized. Does rsGt contain T S C A CB!

The overall mean measured levels were 4.01,8.92, 18.6,40.2 and 85.9 mg a.i./l. Immobility Observations of the Daphnia in each control and test vessel, made after 24 and 48 hours, are listed in Table 2. . After 48 hours, 20% immobility occurred at the highest exposure concentration (85.9 mg a.i/1) and the highest concentration at which no immobilisation had occurred was 40.2 mg/1. The 48-hour EC could not be calculated but must be >85.9 mg a.i./l. Under the General Classification and Labelling Requirements for Dangerous Substances and Preparations,M pPH H H M U is not considered to require-classification as the 48-hour ECM is considered to be greater than the highest nominal concentration, 100 mg a.i./l (mean measured level of 85.9 mg a.i./l). Environmental parameters The measurements o f water quality (temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and total hardness) are summarised in Table 3; they remained within acceptable limits during the study.
