- TEST CONDITIONS
- Aerobicity (or anaerobicity), moisture, temperature and other experimental conditions maintained throughout the study: Yes.
The water layers of the micro-ecosystems were aerobic throughout the entire incubation period with oxygen saturation between 26 and 93% for Hoenniger Weiher and 47 and 90% for Anglerweiher.
The sediment of Hoenniger Weiher remained reductive through the whole incubation time whereas that of Anglerweiher changed from oxidative to reductive.
The pH values decreased from slightly basic to slightly acidic in both systems.
MAJOR TRANSFORMATION PRODUCTS
- TMG (N-2-chloro-5-thiazolylmethyl)-N'-methylguanidine) was detected as the only major metabolite and was found in amounts of 21% in both sediment extracts at the end of the study. No further metabolite was detected in sediment extracts. The supernatant water did not contain any metabolite above 1.3%.
- DT50 values for the test substance were calculated to be 31 days for the supernatant water of Hoenniger Weiher (48 days for the entire system) and 50 days for the supernatant water of Anglerweiher (65 days for the entire system).
EXTRACTABLE RESIDUES
- % of applied amount at end of study period: Radioactivity was rapidly translocated from water to sediment in both systems, whereby this process proceeded slightly faster for Hoenniger Weiher. The amount of radioactivity released from the sediments by extraction generally decreased within the course of the study due to increasing amounts of bound residues and mineralization.
MINERALISATION
- % of applied radioactivity present as CO2 at end of study: The test substance was partly mineralised to CO2 with 3.2% of applied radioactivity in the Hoenniger Weiher system and 4.4% in Anglerweiher. Radioactivity attributable to CO2 in the supernatant water was at 0.4% maximum.

TEST SYSTEM
- Culturing apparatus: Each test system consisted of an open gas-flow-system with 350 mL Erlenmeyer flasks, containing 100 mL of natural water. An illustration of the test apparatus is given as “Figure 1” in the Attached background material.
- Method used to create aerobic conditions: Each flask was aerated with moistened air.
- Method used to control oxygen conditions: The samples were continuously and gently stirred to maintain particles and micro-organisms in suspension. Agitation also facilitated oxygen transfer from headspace to liquid, in a way that aerobic conditions were maintained.
- Details of trap for CO2 and volatile organics if used: After treatment, samples were connected to a trapping system equipped with a total of two absorption traps, one containing ethylene glycol and the other 2N NaOH (in this sequence) to trap organic volatiles and 14CO2, respectively.
SAMPLING
- Sampling frequency: Duplicate samples treated with the test item were taken from each test dose system (high dose HD and low dose LD) immediately after treatment (time 0) and after 3, 7, 14, 28, 41 and 60 days of incubation.
- Sampling method used per analysis type: At each sampling interval, entire samples were taken, the volume of the water phase and the trapping solutions i.e. ethylene glycol and sodium hydroxide was recorded and the radioactivity present was determined by LSC.
- Other: The pH value and oxygen content of the water were measured at each sampling interval in the respective treated samples and in two untreated control samples. Additionally, degradation of [14C (U)] benzoic acid was monitored using the same experimental set-up in order to test the microbial activity of the test water as well as possible adverse effects of the solvent used (solvent controls). Mineralisation of benzoic acid was monitored by LSC measurement and HPLC analysis of sub-samples at 3 different intervals (0, 7 and 14 days) and the amount of radioactivity in NaOH traps determined (LSC). In order to examine possible adverse effects of the solvent, within the benzoic acid system additional solvent control samples were conducted in duplicate with freshly sampled test water. - Test performance:
- The mean total recovery 60 days after the application of clothianidin (0.1 mg/L, 0.1 mg/L + sterile, 0.01 mg/L) are provided in "Table 6 - 8" in the Attached background matrial.
The reference substance benzoic acid degraded completely from initially 102.8% to 0% AR within 7 days of incubation indicating high microbial activity in the test water, whereas analysis of solvent control samples demonstrated that the amount of solvent had no negative effect on the degradation rate. - Compartment:

- TEST CONDITIONS
- Aerobicity (or anaerobicity), moisture, temperature and other experimental conditions maintained throughout the study: Yes
The oxygen concentration measured in the water phase ranged from 5.97 to 8.14 mg/L in the high dose, from 5.89 to 8.24 mg/L in the high dose sterile and from 6.16 to 8.17 mg/L in the low dose experiment. Corresponding values for pH were 8.20 to 8.67, 8.30 to 8.46 and 8.29 to 8.65, respectively.
Similar values were observed in the untreated control samples, ranging from 5.95 to 8.52 mg/L for the oxygen concentration and from 8.34 to 8.73 for the pH values. The results demonstrated that the test item had no significant effect on the physico-chemical parameters of the test system.
The mean temperature during incubation was 20.5 ± 0.3 °C for all systems
- Other: Microbial activity of test water: The amount of benzoic acid decreased within 7 days from initial mean amounts of 102.8% and 93.0% AR to levels below the detection limit in the reference solutions as well as in the solvent controls. Formation of radioactive carbon dioxide amounted to 52.8% and 37.4% AR, respectively. Therefore, no effect of the added solvent on the dissipation rate of benzoic acid could be observed and both systems were considered as microbiologically active.
EXTRACTABLE RESIDUES
- % of applied amount at day 0: Immediately after treatment (time 0), mean values of 101.0%, 103.5% and 100.2% AR were measured in the water phases of the high dose, high dose sterile and low dose system, respectively.
- % of applied amount at end of study period: After 60 days of incubation, the mean amount of radioactivity in the water phase of the respective systems remained stable and represented 103.0%, 101.6% and 97.2% AR.
MINERALISATION
- % of applied radioactivity present as CO2 at end of study: Mean values for formation of radioactive carbon dioxide represented 0.5% AR in the high dose, 0.2% AR in the sterile and 1.0% AR in the low dose system after 60 days, whereas the amount of radioactive carbon dioxide, dissolved in the water layer, was negligible.
VOLATILIZATION
- % of the applied radioactivity present as volatile organics at end of study: Volatile products other than 14CO2 did not exceed 0.1% AR throughout the study. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- At the first sampling interval (time 0), the test item represented mean values 101.0%, 103.5% and 100.2% AR in the high dose, high dose sterile and low dose system, respectively. The reference substance benzoic acid degraded from initially 109.8% to 0% of AR within 7 days of incubation indicating high microbial activity in the test water. In all systems, Clothianidin was shown to be stable until the end of incubation (60 days), accounting for 103.0%, 101.6% and 97.2% AR (mean values) in the respective systems. In conclusion and regardless of the test concentration, Clothianidin was degraded insignificantly under the conditions of the test.

Additional information
One simulation test was carried out to assess the biodegradation of 14C-labelled (E)-1-(2-chloro-1,3-thiazol-5-ylmethyl)-3-methyl-2-nitroguanidine, at 20 °C, in water according to GLP and OECD Guideline 309. The study was conducted over a period of 60 days at two concentration levels (0.1 and 0.01 mg/L), whereas the higher dosage level was additionally tested under sterile conditions. In conclusion and regardless of the test concentration, the test substance was degraded insignificantly in water under the conditions of the test (DT50 > 1 year).
An additional simulation study was carried out to assess the degradation of the active ingredient (E)-1-(2-chloro-1,3-thiazol-5-ylmethyl)-3-methyl-2-nitroguanidine in two water / sediment systems (Hoenniger Weiher and Anglerweiher) using 14C-labelled radioactive test substance, following GLP and EU Council Directive 91/414 EEC as amended by Commission Directive 95/36/EC. Test systems were incubated in the dark at 20 °C. Duplicate vessels were sacrificed at 0, 3, 7, 14, 30, 60 and 100 days after treatment. DT50 values for the test substance were calculated to be 48 days (102 days, recalculated to 12 °C) for Hoenniger Weiher and 65 days (138 days, recalculated to 12 °C) for Anglerweiher. In the aquatic micro-ecosystem the test substance was degraded to a single major metabolite, only found in the sediment, and partly mineralised to carbon dioxide (< 5%). A kinetic evaluation of the experimental data, according to FOCUS (2006, 2011), determined DT50 values ranging from 57.9 to 106.6 days (1.4 to 11.4 days, recalculated to 12 °C).
