- Details on oral exposure:
- As requested by the Sponsor, since similar substances were judged to be non toxic at that dose level, and for regulatory requirements related to the potential registration of the test item in some countries, the animals were treated at a maximum dose level of 5000 mg/kg.
As indicated in OECD guideline no. 423, a first sub-group of one female animal was initially dosed at 5000 mg/kg (Step 1). Since mortality occurred in this animal, a lower dose level of 2000 mg/kg was investigated. Then, a first sub-group of 3 female animals was dosed at a level of 2000 mg/kg (Step 2). Mortality did not occur. A second sub-group, similarly composed, was then dosed at the same dose level (Step 3). No mortality occurred.
No further doses were investigated since the objective of the study had been achieved - Doses:
- During the study, the test item was suspended as follows:
Vehicle : Purified water
Concentration : 500 and 200 mg/mL
Concentrations were calculated and expressed in terms of test item corrected for purity (50%).
Frequency of treatment : Once only, on the day of dosing (Day 1).
Fasting procedure : Overnight prior to dosing (Day –1) up to 4 hours after dosing.
Dose calculation : Dose volume of 10 mL/kg of body weight for each animal. - No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 3 female for 5000 mg/kg
5 female for 2000 mg/Kg - Control animals:
- no
- Preliminary study:
- Mortality occurred on Day 2 in the first animal initially dosed at 5000 mg/kg (Step 1). Clinical signs observed prior to death (on the day of dosing) were piloerection and reduced activity.

- Based on:

- Mortality:
- No mortality occurred and no clinical signs were noted in the first sub-group of three animals dosed at 2000 mg/kg (Step 2).
No mortality occurred and no clinical signs were seen in the second sub-group of three females (Step 3) treated at the same dose level - Gross pathology:
- The necropsy examination performed in the decedent animal treated at 5000 mg/kg (Step 1) and, at the end of the observation period in the animals dosed at 2000 mg/kg (Steps 2 and 3), did not reveal external or internal alterations
- Interpretation of results:
- practically nontoxic
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- LD0 > 2000 mg/Kg bw
LD50 > 2000 mg/Kg bw - Executive summary:
The acute toxicity ofKH2PO3/K2HPO3was investigated following a single oral administration to the Sprague Dawley rat followed by a 14-day observation period.
A sub-group of 1 female animal was initially dosed at 5000 mg/kg (Step 1). Mortality occurred on Day 2 following dosing. Clinical signs observed prior to death were limited to piloerection and reduced activity.
No mortality occurred and no clinical signs were seen in the 2 sub-groups of animals subsequently dosed at 2000 mg/kg (Steps 2 and 3).
Body weight changes recorded during the study were within the expected range for this strain and age of animals.
No abnormalities were observed at necropsy examination performed in the early decedent animal or in those sacrificed at the end of the observation period.
These results indicate that the test itemKH2PO3/K2HPO3induced mortality in the rat following oral administration of a single dose at a level of 5000 mg/kg. No mortality or other signs of toxicity were observed following dosing at 2000 mg/kg. These results suggest the acute toxicity estimate (ATE) to be greater than 2000 but lower than 5000 mg/kg body weight.

The acute toxicity of KH2PO3/K2HPO3was investigated following dermal administration of a single dose to the rat at 5000 mg/kg.
No mortality occurred following dosing and no signs of toxicity were observed.
These results indicate that the test item,KH2PO3/K2HPO3, has no toxic effect on the rat following dermal exposure over a 24 hour period at a level of 5000 mg/kg. The lack of mortality demonstrates the LD50 to be greater than 5000 mg/kg

Additional information
Acute toxicity studies per oral and dermal exposure have been performed on the multiconstituent substance "Reaction mass of dipotassium phosphonate and Phosphonic acid, potassium salt (1:1)" (Salvador, 2013). The monoconstituent "mono Potassium phosphonate"is the favourite species in the gastric environment.
No effect has been reported respectively at 2000 and 5000 mg/Kg bw for oral and dermal exposure
Justification for classification or non-classification
Oral acute toxicity
The substance is not classified for oral toxicity because it doesn't meet the classification criteria of the CLP regulation n. 1272/2008:
Oral (mg/kg bodyweight)
Category 1: ATE ≤ 5
Category 2: 5 < ATE≤ 50
Category 3: 50 < ATE≤ 300
Category 4: 300 < ATE≤ 2 000
The substance had no effect at 2000 mg/Kg bw
Inhalation acute toxicity
According to the Annex VIII of the REACH Regulation n. 1907/2006, inhalation route is not considered appropriate, based also on vapour pressure and the test can be waived.
Dermal acute toxicity
The substance is not classified for dermal toxicity because it doesn't meet the classification criteria of the CLP regulation n. 1272/2008:
Dermal (mg/kg bodyweight)
Category 1: ATE ≤ 50
Category 2: 50 < ATE≤ 2000
