Description of key information
There are no acute toxicity data for the ammonium salt of DTPMP. Therefore data from DTPMP-H and sodium salts of DTPMP have been used in a weight of evidence approach.
In an acute oral toxicity study with DTPMP-7Na, conducted according to a protocol comparable to the now-deleted OECD Test Guideline 401 and in compliance with GLP, the LD50 for DTPMP-7Na was ≥10 ml/kg bw in rats (equivalent to ≥5838 mg active salt/kg bw and ≥4612 mg active acid/kg bw) (SafePharm Laboratories, 1982a).
In an acute oral toxicity study with DTPMP-7Na, conducted according to a protocol comparable to the now-deleted OECD Test Guideline 401 and in compliance with GLP, the LD50 for DTPMP-7Na was <15 ml/kg bw (equivalent to <8757 mg active salt/kg and 6918 mg active acid/kg bw) in the rat (SafePharm Laboratories, 1982b).
In an acute dermal toxicity study with DTPMP-7Na, conducted according to a protocol comparable to OECD Test Guideline 402 and according to GLP, the LD50 for DTPMP-7Na was ≥10 ml/kg bw (equivalent to 5838 mg active salt/kg bw and 4612 mg active acid/kg bw) in rats (SafePharm Laboratories, 1982c; reliability score 1).
In an acute dermal toxicity study (Younger Laboratories, 1971), 58% w/w solution of DTPMP-H was applied to the clipped, intact skin of four New Zealand white rabbits, under an occlusive dressing, for 24 hours. Animals were then observed for 14 days, and all animals were examined macroscopically. No animals died and the LD50 was concluded to be greater than 7940 mg/kg bw (equivalent to >4605 mg active acid/kg bw). Clinical signs included reduced appetite and activity for one to two days after treatment. There were no abnormal macroscopic findings. There are no inhalation data. The study meets generally accepted scientific principles, but pre-dated GLP.
There are no data for the inhalation route.

- Executive summary:
In an acute dermal toxicity study (reliability score 2), conducted prior to the adoption of OECD test guidelines and GLP, 58% w/w solution of DTPMP-H was applied to the clipped, intact skin of four New Zealand white rabbits, under an occlusive dressing, for 24 hours. Animals were then observed for 14 days, and all animals were examined macroscopically. No animals died and the LD50 was concluded to be greater than 7940 mg/kg bw (equivalent to >4605 mg active acid/kg bw). Toxic signs included reduced appetite and activity for one to two days after treatment. There were no abnormal macroscopic findings.

Additional information
There are no acute toxicity data for the ammonium salt of DTPMP. Therefore data from DTPMP-H and sodium salts of DTPMP have been used in a weight of evidence approach.
Acute toxicity studies were conducted using aqueous solutions of DTPMP-7Na, DTPMP-8Na and DTPMP-xNa (presumed to be DTPMP-7Na) and LD50 values are reported on the basis of test material as well as the equivalent doses expressed as active acid and active salt.
The result has been corrected to the equivalent dose of active acid using a using molecular weight conversions:
MW DTPMP-H (573.2 g/mol) / MW DTPMP-7Na (727.07 g/mol) = 0.79
MW DTPMP-H (573.2 g/mol) / MW DTPMP-8Na (749.048 g/mol) = 0.77
MW DTPMP-H (573.2 g/mol) / MW DTPMP-xNa (presumed to be DTPMP-7Na based on trade name) ( 727.07 g/mol) = 0.79
In the first acute oral toxicity study with DTPMP-7Na (aqueous solution containing 33% w/w active acid; composed of 42% w/w active salt), conducted according to a protocol comparable to the now-deleted OECD Test Guideline 401 and in compliance with GLP, the LD50 for DTPMP-7Na was ≥10 ml/kg bw in rats (equivalent to ≥5838 mg active salt/kg bw and ≥4612 mg active acid/kg bw; calculated as 5838 mg DTPMP-7Na/kg * 0.79 = 4612 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight) (SafePharm Laboratories, 1982a). In the study 5 male and 5 female rats were given a single oral gavage dose of 3 or 10 ml DTPMP-7Na/kg bw. Following administration, the animals were observed daily for clinical signs of toxicity and the animals were weighed on study days 0, 7 and 14. At the end of the 14-day observation period, the animals were sacrificed and subject to gross pathological examination. No deaths occurred during the study. At 3 ml/ kg bw the general signs of toxicity in all animals included piloerection, hunched posture and lethargy for the first day after dosing. On day 2 after dosing, all animals appeared normal. At 10 ml/kg bw the general signs of toxicity in all animals included piloerection, hunched posture, lethargy and decreased respiratory rate shortly after dosing. All male and two female test animals also suffered ptosis. From day 4 after dosing, no abnormal symptoms were observed in any animal. No macroscopic abnormalities observed at necropsy.
In the second acute oral toxicity study with DTPMP-7Na (aqueous solution containing 33% w/w active acid; composed of 42% w/w active salt), conducted according to a protocol comparable to the nowdeleted OECD Test Guideline 401 and in compliance with GLP, the LD50 for DTPMP-7Na was <15 ml/kg bw (equivalent to <8757 mg active salt/kg and 6918 mg active acid/kg bw; calculated as 8757 mg DTPMP-7Na/kg * 0.79 = 6918 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight) in the rat (SafePharm Laboratories, 1982b). In the study 5 male and 5 female rats were given a single oral gavage dose of 15 ml DTPMP-7Na/ kg bw. The animals were observed at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours after dosing, and each day for 14 days. Body weight was measured on days 0, 7, and 14. At the end of the 14-day observation period, the animals were sacrificed and subject to gross pathological examination. Nine animals died within two days after dosing. General signs of toxicity in all animals included piloerection, abnormal body carriage hunched posture), lethargy, decreased respiratory rate and ptosis shortly after dosing. Also, diarrhoea and ataxia in three males and two females, and convulsions in one male were observed. From day 8 after dosing, no abnormal symptoms were observed in the surviving animal (a female). Macroscopic abnormalities in all animals that died during the study included congestion and/or haemorrhage of the lungs were observed. Also haemorrhage of the glandular region of the stomach and/or small intestine in 8 animals, pallor of organs (spleen, kidneys, liver) in 6 animals, injection of the blood vessels (no further explanation given in the report) of the small intestine in 1 animal, testicles very swollen in 1 animal were observed. No macroscopic abnormalities were observed at necropsy of surviving animal.
In a supporting acute oral toxicity study reported with DTPMP-8Na (composed of 43% w/w active salt including minor components, 57% w/w water; active acid content not specified), conducted prior to the adoption of OECD Test Guidelines and pre-dating GLP, the LD50 was ≥9000 mg/kg bw (equivalent to >3870 mg active salt/kg bw and 2979 mg active acid/kg bw; calculation based on 3870 mg DTPMP-8Na/ kg * 0.77 = 2979 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight) in rat (Monsanto, 1979). In the study, 5 male and 5 female rats were given a single oral dose of 5000, 6000, 7000, 8000 or 9000 mg DTPMP-8Na/kg bw (doses presumed equivalent to 2150, 2580, 3010, 3440 and 3870 mg active salt/kg bw respectively). Body weight was measured on days 0, 7 and 14 and 20 animals were necropsied. No deaths occurred during the study. Diarrhoea was observed in one animal. Many animals exhibited urine-stained fur one day after dosing. There were generally no findings upon gross examination of the internal organs except for unilateral hydronephrosis in one animal and haemorrhagic thymus in one other.
In another supporting acute oral toxicity study with DTPMP-xNa (the test material was hand-labelled with a trade name corresponding to DTPMP-7Na; aqueous solution containing 33% w/w active salt; active acid content was not specified), conducted prior to the adoption of OECD Test Guidelines and pre-dating GLP, the LD50 was ≥5000 mg/kg bw (equivalent to ≥1650 mg active salt/kg bw and ≥1303 mg active acid/kg bw; calculated as 1650 mg DTPMP-7Na/kg * 0.79 = 1303 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight) in the rat (Hazleton Laboratories, 1979). In the study, two male and two female rats were given a single oral dose of 250, 500, 1000, 2000 mg DTPMP-xNa/kg bw not diluted solution, therefore presumed equivalent to 82.5, 165, 330, 660, and 1650 mg active salt/kg bw, respectively, after correction for purity. Body weights were recorded before and after dosing, and clinical signs recorded for 14 days after dosing. No deaths or clinical signs of toxicity occurred during the study period. The body weights appeared normal throughout the study period. No abnormalities were noted during necropsy.
In a supporting acute oral toxicity study (Younger Laboratories, 1971) a single dose of a 58% w/w solution of DTPMP-H was administered by oral gavage to Sprague-Dawley rats (mixed sex 5/dose). Doses of 5010, 6310, 7940 and 10000 mg/kg bw were tested. The animals were then observed for seven days, after which they were examined macroscopically. There were 0, 2 (females), 3 (females) and 5 deaths at 5010, 6310, 7940 and 10000 mg/kg bw, respectively. Survival times were several hours to one day. Toxic signs included reduced appetite and activity, slight lethargy (lasting two to seven days in survivors), rapidly increasing weakness, collapse and death. Surviving female rats sustained weight loss in seven days. Males recovered initial weight loss and most showed weight gain. In animals that died there was slight liver discolouration and acute gastrointestinal inflammation. Seven days after administration the viscera of surviving animals appeared normal at macroscopic examination. The LD50 was calculated to be 7180 mg/kg bw (equivalent to 4164 mg active acid/kg bw). The study meets generally accepted scientific principles, but pre-dated GLP.
In the acute dermal toxicity study with DTPMP-7Na (aqueous solution containing 33% w/w active acid; composed of 42% w/w active salt), conducted according to a protocol comparable to OECD Test Guideline 402 and in compliance with GLP, the LD50 for DTPMP-7Na was ≥10 ml/kg bw (equivalent to 5838 mg active salt/kg bw and 4612 mg active acid/kg bw; calculated as 5838 mg DTPMP-7Na/kg * 0.79 = 4612 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight ) in rats (SafePharm Laboratories, 1982c). In the study, 5 male and 5 female rats were subject to a single 24-hour occlusive dermal application of 10 ml DTPMP-7Na/ kg bw (aqueous solution containing 33% v/v active acid). Skin responses were evaluated at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours after removal of the test patch and residual test substance, and on each day for 14 days. Body weight was measured on days 0, 7, and 14. At the end of the 14-day observation period, the animals were sacrificed and subject to gross pathological examination. No deaths occurred during the study. Lethargy was observed in two animals (one male and one female) on the day of dosing. From 4 hours after dosing, no abnormal symptoms were observed in any animal. Body weight were within normal limits throughout the test period. No abnormal findings were noted during necropsy.
In an acute dermal toxicity study (Younger Laboratories, 1971), 58% w/w solution of DTPMP-H was applied to the clipped, intact skin of four New Zealand white rabbits, under an occlusive dressing, for 24 hours. Animals were then observed for 14 days, and all animals were examined macroscopically. No animals died and the LD50 was concluded to be greater than 7940 mg/kg bw (equivalent to >4605 mg active acid/kg bw). Clinical signs included reduced appetite and activity for one to two days after treatment. There were no abnormal macroscopic findings. There are no inhalation data. The study meets generally accepted scientific principles, but pre-dated GLP.
In an acute dermal toxicity study, conducted using a protocol comparable to OECD 402, and in compliance with GLP, the LD50 for the sodium salt of DTPMP (CAS 22042-96-2) was >10 ml/kg bw (>5838 mg active salt/kg bw, equivalent to >4602 mg parent acid) in rats (Safepharm Laboratories, 1982; reliability score 1).
In a supporting acute dermal toxicity study with DTPMP-8Na (composed of 43% w/w active salt including minor components, 57% w/w water), conducted prior to the adoption of OECD Test Guidelines and predating GLP, available only as a summary, the LD50 was ≥2000 mg/kg bw in rabbits (equivalent to 860 mg active salt/kg bw and 662 mg active acid/kg bw; calculated as 860 mg DTPMP-8Na/kg * 0.77 = 662 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight) (Monsanto, 1979). Details of the study were not available.
In a supporting acute dermal toxicity study with DTPMP-xNa (the test material was hand-labelled with a trade name corresponding to DTPMP-7Na; aqueous solution containing 33% w/w active salt; active acid content was not specified), conducted prior to the adoption of OECD Test Guidelines and predating GLP, the LD50 was ≥5ml/kg bw (equivalent to 2145 mg active salt/kg bw and 1695 mg active acid/kg bw; calculated as 2145 mg DTPMP-7Na/kg * 0.79 = 1695 mg DTPMP-H/kg body weight) in the rat (Hazleton Laboratories, 1979). In the study, 5 male and 5 female rats were subject to a single 24hour occlusive dermal application of 5 ml DTPMP-xNa/kg bw. Animals were observed for overt signs of toxicity or behavioural change at 15 minutes, 1, 2, and 4 hours after treatment, and subsequently once daily for 14 days. Body weights were recorded on the day of treatment and 14 days after treatment. Gross pathology was planned only for the animals that died before the end of the observation period. No deaths or clinical signs of toxicity occurred during the study period. The body weights appeared normal throughout the study period. Necropsy was not performed as no animals died during the study.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available data for DTPMP-H and sodium salts of DTPMP, classification of DTPMP-xNH4 for acute toxicity is not required according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
