4. Ecotoxicity Substance ID: <strong>7447</strong>-<strong>40</strong>-7<br />

4.3 Toxicity to Aquatic Plants e.g. Algae<br />

Species:<br />

Nitzschia linearis (diatom)<br />

Endpoint:<br />

growth rate<br />

Exposure period: 120 hours<br />

Unit: mg/l Analytical monitoring: yes<br />

EC50 = 1337<br />

Method:<br />

other<br />

Year: 1968 GLP: no data<br />

Test substance: as prescribed by 1.1-1.4, purity: A.C.S.-grade<br />

chemicals<br />

Remarks:<br />

Diatoms were cultured in synthetic dilution water<br />

under controlled conditions. Tests were made by<br />

putting standard inoculum of cells in each of the<br />

150 ml Erlenmeyer flasks, and comparing the number<br />

of cells produced at the end of a 5-day period. A<br />

graded series of test concentrations were used.<br />

Reliability: (2) reliable with restrictions<br />

Year: 1991 GLP: no data<br />

Test substance: not stated<br />

Remark:<br />

German standard methods for the examination of<br />

water, waste water and sludge, bio-assays (group<br />

L); determination of the non-poisonous effect of<br />

waste water to green algae (Scenedesmus chlrophyll<br />
