3.4 Ace of Test Ornnisrns at Test Initiation Neonates of known age (i.e., less than 24-hours old) are obtained for testing by r' segregating adult females from the mass cultures on the day before a test is initiated. On the day of the test neonates are segregated from the parent orgamsms.

[ 3.5 Dilution Water The source of dilution water is the City of Baltimore Municipal Water System.

i, Upon entry to the laboratory. the water is passed through a lugh-capacity, i activated-carbon filtration system to remove chlorine and other possible contaminants such as detertents, and hexane-soluble organic materials. This p', water source has proven sale for aquatic organism toxicity testing as evidenced by d maintenance of the multigeneration Dzphma and Pimephales promelc cultures. ,

with no evident loss of fecundity. If requested, reconstituted fresh water or an n appropriate receiving water crat be used as the dilution water.

3.6 Test Concentration Serica

~

The test concentration series consists of a minimum of five dilutions and may be determined from a prior screening of the test material (e.g.. 1. 3,10, 30. and 100 percent effluent: or 6.25,12.5, 25, 50, and 100 percent effluent plus a control).

-e 3.7 Test . Concentration Frenaration Test concentrations are prepared with Class A glassware.

l' 3.3 Test Vessels and Test Volume Test vessels are 400-m1 glass beakers or 10-cm culture bowls: the final test volume h of each replicate is 200 ml. Depending on the study requirenims, other test vessels and test volumes may be used.

6 3.9 Test Orvnniet Number

, fc Tests are conducted using two replicates per concentration. with ten organisms D per container. Neonates are randomly assigned to each replicate test container.

More replicates can be added, if appropriate.

3.10 Test Envirnnmnt L, - The test vessels are maintained at 20 2 C in an environmentally controlled

, laboratory with a 16-hour light. 8-hour dark photoperiod.

PROTOCOL ATS-SAI-DS-04 3.11 Analys s of Test Concentrations for Test Article '

i If required, test solutions may be analyzed for analytical verification of chemical concentrations. The analvi:al method and number of analyses are determined af ter consultation with the client. When chemical analyses are necessary.

} both nominal and actual measured test solution concentrations are reported.

[ 3.12 Test Obrervations Each test day. test organisms are observed to record the number of surviving

. organisms. The study terminates after completion of the 2-day observation period. The study may be extended, however, at the request of the client.

g Each sample and receiving water are analy:ed for temperature, conductivity, fV alkalinity, and hardness. Measurements of water quahty taken at test initiation.

24-hours and test termination include dissolved oxygen. pH. temperature and conductivity from a muumum of one replicate of the control. Iow medium, and be high dilutions. Aliquots of effluent and receiving water and test solutions may%

gently aerated, if necessary (dissolved oxygen less than 40% or greater than 105 saturation). Analytical determinations are conducted according to APHA et al.

L (1989) and EPA (1979).

1 '

3.13 Solution Renewal (When Acolicable)

When static-renewal testing is required, the test solutions are renewed at 24-hours. New test solutions are prepared on the day of renewal and dispensed according to Section 3.7. After the new solutions have reached test temperature, the test orgamsms are transferred from the old test vessels to the new test vessels using, a wice bore pipet or glass tube. The number of live o amsms is recorded.

Caution is given not to stress the test or amsms during trans er. After water quality measurements (temperature, p dissolved oxygen. and conductivity) are b completed. the old solution is discarded.

- 3.14 Data Annivsis The LC50 or EC50 values and associated statistics are calculated using the probit.

,r* moving average, and binomial methods as described by Stephan (1977).

p Depending on the nature of the data, other methods may be used including the Trunmed Spearman-Karber method, the probit approximation method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon (1949). SAS probit analysa (SAS Institute 1979) or e graphical interpolation c-ing the log concentration vs. percent morta.uty as U described by APHA et al. (1989). The methods used are specfied in the final report.

y . 3.9 Test Environment

'^

The test vessels vill be maintained at a temperature similar to that at which the fish have been acclimated, but within the recommended test range. Test temperature vill not vary more than 32 C from the specified

[ acc11mation temperature. The tests vill be conductes on a 16-hour light, 8-hour dark photoperiod cycle.

3.10 Analysis of Test Concentrations for Test Article

c If required, test solutions replicates may be analyzed for chemical analytical verification of achieved test concentrations. The analytical method and number of determinations vill be formulated af ter consultation with the client. Where chemical analyses are necessary, both nominal and p,9 actual measured test solution concentrations vill be reported.

3,11 Test Observations l-b Test organisms vill;be observed at a minimum of 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours0.00111 days <br />0.0267 hours <br />1.587302e-4 weeks <br />3.6528e-5 months <br /> af ter test initiation to determine number of animals killed by test article concentrations. The study vill terminate after completien of the 4-day observation period. The study may be extended, however, at the request of the client.

s f

Routine water quality measurements are performed on the test solutions and diluent vater controls according to the following schedule: tempera-ture is measured daily from all test. chambers; dissolved- oxygen and pH

{, are measured initially from all test chambers as well as at test termina-

' tion, and from the control, lov, medium, and-high concentration at 24 ,

48 , and 72-hour intervals. Specific conductance, total alkalinity, and

[' total hardness are measured from the diluent vater and sample. Specific

[: conductance may also be used for concentration monitoring at the request of the client. Test solutions vill not be aerated unless dissolved e oxygen concentrations fall below 40 percent of saturation. Analytical methods vill be conducted according to APHA et al. (1985) and EPA (1979).

{

Dead fish are removed when observed. At the end of the 96-hour test (f - period, a minimum of 30 surviving fish are removed from the test con-tainers, placed in labeled specimen bags, and frozen. The fish are subsequently thaved, measured to the nearest as (standard length), patted dry,' and veighed to the nearest 0.01 g. The average length and veight of the test fish are reported, along with their respective ranges and stan-dard deviations.
