Comments on the Data
NR Fish were acclimated at
least for 10 days at 25 °C.
The test concentrations
used were not reported. A
control group was not
tested.
Killifish, but not goldfish,
are a designated test
species, as per OPPTS
850.1075 (Fish Acute
Toxicity Test, Freshwater
and Marine).
Deformation of the spine
was observed in 7/10
killifish exposed to 3.5
mg/L TDCPP for 24 hours.
