Short-term toxicity to fish.012
Administrative data
- Purpose flag:
- key study
- Study result type:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- Study generated according to generally valid and
internationally accepted testing guideline and performed
under GLP.
No analytical monitoring was performed, only the stock solution was analyzed, but based on chronic tests it can be assumed that the test substance was stable during the test and the fish were properly exposed.

Results and discussion
Effect concentrationsopen allclose all
- Details on results:
- Measured concentration of the stock solution was 600,000 mg/L
Effect data (Mortality): In the control and in all test concentrations no mortality and no sublethal effects were observed. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- No statistics could be performed because greater than 50% survival occurred in all test concentrations.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- only the stock solution could be analyzed, but based on chronic tests for which chemical analyses were performed it can be assumed that the test concentrations were stable and that the fish were exposed properly. No fish died during the test, therefore the 96h-LC50 is greater than 1000 mg/l and the NOEC is 1000 mg/l.
- Executive summary:
- The acute toxicity of sodium chlorate to the sheepshead minnow, Cyprinodon variegatus, is described in this final report. The testwas conducted for Albright and Wilson Americas for 96 hours during February 19 to 23, 1991, at the EnviroSystems Division of Resource Analysts, Inc. in Hampton, New Hampshire. It was conducted by Peter Kowalski, Ellen Stanford, Jeanne Magazu, Robert Boeri, and Timothy Ward according to the protocol developed for EnviroSystems Study Number 90115-DE. The analytical portion of this study was conducted under the supervision of Gloria Switalski. Sodium chlorate (reported purity >99% active ingredient) was supplied by the sponsor.The test was performed under flow-through conditions with five concentrations of test substance and a dilution water control at a temperature of 22 ± 1°C. The dilution water was unfiltered natural seawater collected at Hampton, New Hampshire. Mean nominal concentrations of sodium chlorate were: 0 mg/L (control), 140, 240, 380, 600, and 1,000 mg/L. Nominal concentrations were used for all calculations.Organism used in the test were procured from a commercial supplier (Aquatic Research Organisms, Hampton, New Hampshire) and acclimated at EnviroSystems under test conditions for more than 7 days. After 96 hours of exposure the control organisms had an average wet weight (blotted dry) of 0.70 g. All animals were in good condition at the beginning of the study.Exposure of sheepshead minnow to the test substance resulted in a 96 hour LC50 greater than 1,000 mg/L sodium chlorate. The 96 hour no observed effect concentration was 1,000 mg/L sodium chlorate.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- no
- Remarks:
- the test substance concentration could not be monitored
