Initial Data Review

Fish Toxicity Summaries:

(1) conducted a 96-hour acute toxicity test in rainbow trout 

(Oncorhynchus mykiss) with P-14-0756 (> 99% purity) under semi-static conditions with daily 

renewal. This study was reported to follow OECD Test Guideline No. 203 (1992) and EC 

Method C.1 (1992). Based on the results of a formulation trial, the limit of aqueous solubility of 

the test substance in dechlorinated tap water was approximately 1.2 mg/L. Following a 

range-finding test, single replicates of seven O. mykiss were exposed to a dilution water control 

(dechlorinated tap water), a solvent control ( or the 

test substance at nominal concentrations of 0.427, 0.939, 2.07, 4.54 or 10.0 mg/L. 

Corresponding geometric mean measured concentrations of the test substance were 0.0408, 

0.0921, 0.197, 0.403 and 0.823 mg/L, as determined by analysis (LOQ = 0.02 mg/L; 

LOD = 5 ng/mL). An aqueous preparation of the test substance was prepared by dissolving the 

test substance (1 g) in ; 10 mL). The contents of the flask were 

shaken vigorously before an (2 mL) was dispersed in the diluent water (ca. 2.5 L) in a 

volumetric flask (5 L). This intermediate dilution was treated by ultrasound for 20 minutes, with 

mixing at 5 minute intervals, checking after each interval that the temperature remained below 

50°C, before being adjusted to volume (5 L) in the flask. The contents of the flask were poured 

into a glass aspirator containing diluents water (10 L) and were stirred overnight in the dark. On 

the cessation of stirring, the contents of the aspirator were filtered (0.2 μm pore size, 

 and the resultant (saturated) solution was either used directly or was further diluted to 

provide the test media at the four lower concentrations. At all concentrations, the test media 

were clear and colorless. Over the course of testing, temperature ranged from 14.2 – 15.3°C, pH 
ranged from 7.80 – 8.45 and dissolved oxygen ranged from 84 – 102% ASV. The dilution water 

hardness was 174 – 176 mg/L as CaCO3 and the TOC was 0.87 mg C/L. A loading rate of 0.92 

g fish/L was reported. No mortalities occurred during the study. Treatment-related effects were 

observed at concentrations ≥ 0.197 mg/L. These effects included the following: loss of 

orientation, nose pointing down; dark body and eye orbital area; hyperactive, erratic swimming; 

lethargy (on base of vessel); overturned but mobile; overturned but immobile; trailing feces with 

mucus and reduced opercular movement. Based on geometric mean measured concentrations, 

the 96-hour LC50 was > 0.823 mg/L.

96-hour LC50 > 0.823 mg/L

(2) conducted a 96-hour acute toxicity test in 

zebra fish with P-14-0756 (purity not provided) under semi-static conditions 

with daily renewal. This study was reported to follow OECD Test Guideline No. 203 (1992). 

The water solubility of the test substance was reported to be 1 mg/L. Following a range-finding 

test, two replicates of ten B. rerio were exposed to a dilution water control (dechlorinated tap 

water) or the test substance at a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L. A corresponding mean 

measured concentration of the test substance was 0.03~0.15 mg/L, as determined via 

analysis. The test medium with a loading rate of 100 mg/L was prepared by weighing 300 mg of 

test substance into 3 L of test water. The test substance was mixed into the test water as 

homogenously as possible by stirring for 4 hours at room temperature in the dark to dissolve a 

maximum concentration of the test substance in the dispersion. The supersaturated stock 

dispersions of the test substance were filtered through the 0.45 μm of membrane filter. The 

 were used as test medium. Over the course of testing, temperature was 

maintained at 23.0-23.2°C, pH ranged from 7.85 – 8.21 and dissolved oxygen ranged from 75.1 

– 95.3% ASV. The dilution water hardness ranged between 10 - 250 mg/L as CaCO3. A 

loading rate of 0.4 g fish/L was calculated. No mortalities occurred during the study. Based on 

mean measured concentrations, the 96-hour LC50 was greater than 0.03~0.15 mg/L.

96-hour LC50 > 0.03~0.15 mg/L

Daphnid Toxicity Summary:

. conducted a 48-hour immobilization test in water fleas (Daphnia 

magna) with P-14-0756 (> 99% purity) under static conditions. This study was reported to 

follow OECD Test Guideline No. 202 (2004) and EC Method C.2 (1992). Based on the results 

of a formulation trial, the limit of aqueous solubility of the test substance in test medium was 

approximately 1.2 mg/L. Following a range-finding test, four replicates of five D. magna were 

exposed to a dilution water control ), a solvent control 

 or the test substance at nominal concentrations of 0.625, 1.25, 2.5, 5 or 

10 mg/L. Corresponding geometric mean measured concentrations of the test substance were 

0.0735, 0.150, 0.304, 0.588 and 1.20 mg/L, as determined by analysis (LOQ = 0.05 

mg/L; LOD = 5 ng/mL). An aqueous preparation of the test substance was prepared by 

dissolving the test substance (1 g) in 10 mL). The contents of the 

flask were shaken vigorously before an aliquot (0.2 mL) was dispersed in the dilution medium 

(ca. 1900 mL) in a 2-L volumetric flask. This intermediate dilution was treated by ultrasound for 

20 minutes, with mixing at 5 minute intervals, before the contents of the flask were adjusted to 

the base of flask neck. The contents of the flask were stirred overnight in the dark and on 

cessation of stirring it was made up to volume (2 L) and the contents filtered (0.2 μm pore size, 
). The resultant (saturated) solution was either used directly or was further 

diluted to provide the test media at the four lower concentrations. Each vessel was loosely 

covered with a watch-glass. Over the course of testing, temperature ranged from 20.1 – 20.6°C, 

pH ranged from 7.37 – 8.10 and dissolved oxygen ranged from 96 – 103% ASV. The dilution 

water hardness was 224 mg/L as CaCO3. A loading rate of 50 daphnids/L was calculated. No 

immobilization was observed at mean measured concentrations ≤ 0.588 mg/L, and 70% 

immobilization was observed at 1.20 mg/L. Based on geometric mean measured concentrations, 

the 48-hour EC50 was 1.02 mg/L.

48-hour EC50 = 1.02 mg/L

Algae Toxicity Summary:

. conducted a 72-hour algal growth inhibition assay in green algae 

 with P-14-0756 (> 99% purity) under static conditions. This 

study was reported to follow EC Method C.3, OECD Test Guideline No. 201 (1984) and the 

proposal for updating OECD Guideline No. 201, document 2-2, revision 2 (2004). Based on the 

results of a formulation trial, the water solubility of the test substance was approximately 1.2 

mg/L. Following a range-finding test, six replicates of P. subcapitata (1.19 x 104 cells/mL) were 

exposed to a dilution medium control (OECD medium), a solvent control 

and OECD medium) or the test substance at a nominal concentration of 10 mg/L. The 

corresponding mean measured test concentration was 1.03 mg/L, as determined by 

analysis (LOQ = 0.05 mg/L; LOD = 0.025 mg/L). The algae were illuminated at a light intensity 

of 6750 – 6810 lux with constant shaking. An aqueous preparation of the test substance was 

prepared by dissolving the test substance (1 g) in ; 10 mL). The 

contents of the flask were shaken vigorously before an aliquot (0.1 mL) was dispersed in sterile 

algal medium (ca. 700 mL) in a volumetric flask (1 L). This intermediate dilution was treated by 

ultrasound for 20 minutes, with mixing at 5 minute intervals, before the volume in the flask was 

adjusted to the base of the flask neck. The contents of the flask were stirred overnight in the 

dark and on cessation of stirring it was made up to volume (1 L) and the contents were filtered 

(0.2 μm pore size, . The resultant (saturated) solution was used directly as the 

test medium. Test flasks were loosely plugged with a foam bung. On day the day of 

preparation, the test medium was clear and colorless. Over the course of testing, temperature 

ranged from 22.7 – 23.8°C and pH ranged from 7.92 – 9.62. The mean cell density in control 

cultures was increased by a factor of 142 within 72 hours. Compared to the solvent control 

cultures, neither the area under the growth curve nor the average specific growth rate was 

significantly reduced in cultures exposed to the test substance. Based on the mean measured test 

concentration, the 72-hour EC50 value for growth rate and biomass was > 1.03 mg/L. The 

72-hour NOEC and LOEC values were 1.03 mg/L and > 1.03 mg/L, respectively.

72-hour EC50 (growth rate and biomass) > 1.03 mg/L

72-hour NOEC (growth rate and biomass) = 1.03 mg/L

72-hour LOEC (growth rate and biomass) > 1.03 mg/L

Earthworm Toxicity Summary:

 conducted 

a 14-day acute toxicity test in earthworms (Eisenia foetida) with P-14-0756 (99.2% purity). This 

study was reported to follow: The guidelines for the testing of chemicals, 

153-2004); The guidelines for the testing of chemicals, 
 (2004); EC Method C.8 (2008); OECD Test Guideline No. 207 

(1984); OPPTS Method 850.6200 (1996). Following a range-finding test, a definitive test was 

performed in (cation exchange capacity: 29.76 cmol(+)/kg; pH: 8.45; organic 

matter: 28.73 g/kg; character: clay) and (cation exchange capacity: 10.6 

cmol(+)/kg; pH: 5.29; organic matter: 9.94 g/kg; character: clay). For each soil, three replicates 

of ten were exposed to a blank control or the test substance nominal concentrations of 

100 or 1000 mg/kg-soil. Seven-hundred fifty grams (750 g) of test soil, 150 mL of distilled 

water and test substance were added to each test container of the treatment group. Only soil and 

water were added to containers of the control group. The test substrate in all containers was 

mixed thoroughly before the introduction of the test worms. The containers were sealed with 

plastic films. The test temperature was 20±1°C with humidity of 80 – 85%. No mortalities or 

abnormalities were observed during the study. Based on nominal concentrations, the 14-day 

LC50 was > 1000 mg/kgsoil in both . 

14-day LC50 > 1000 mg/kgsoil

 submitted five ecotoxicity studies (two on fish, 

one daphnia, one green algae, and one earthworm) on PMN substance, P-14-0756. The 

submitted studies on PMN (P-14-0756) are considered to be acceptable. The test results will be 

used to calculate the concentrations of concern for P-14-0756. For comparative purposes, 

the QSAR-predicted acute fish, Daphnia, and algae values for P-14-0756 are 0.60 mg/L, 

0.34mg/L, and 0.06 mg/L, respectively. The predicted chronic values for fish, Daphnia, and 

algae are 0.009 mg/L, 0.048 mg/L, and 0.18 mg/L, respectively. 

The acute for P-14-0756 is 204 ppb (1020 ppb÷5(uncertainty factor)), based on the 

experimentally-derived 48-hour EC50 of Daphnia. The chronic for P-14-0756 is 0.9ppb 

(≈1ppb) (9ppb÷10 (uncertainty factor)), based on the QSAR predicted fish chronic value. 

The reason for using this fish chronic value for calculating chronic is that the 

treatment-related effects were observed at concentrations ≥ 0.197 mg/L in one acute fish test. 

The observed effects included the following: loss of orientation, nose pointing down; dark body 

and eye orbital area; hyperactive, erratic swimming; lethargy (on base of vessel); overturned but 

mobile; overturned but immobile; trailing feces with mucus and reduced opercular movement. 

Therefore, although no lethality was observed in the acute study, the observed effects cannot be 

discarded for possible chronic effects. In addition, no chronic study either on fish or Daphnia 

has been submitted, indicating a chronic data gap.

Acute = 204 ppb

Chronic = 1 ppb
