Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity: Three weight of evidence studies are available for the acute oral toxicity endpoint, all studies are conducted prior to the institution of GLP but are well documented and acceptable for assessment. The studies, Lim (1978) and Shourie (1950) report LD50 values of 710 mg/kg bw and 570 ± 68 mg/ kg bw respectively.The third, Whitford (1990) reports higher values but in the same classification range. According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (EU CLP) these results are sufficient to classify the test material for acute toxicity via the oral route (Category 4).
Acute dermal toxicity: Testing was waived on the basis that further in vivo testing is considered to be scientifically unjustified as testing has been performed on the likely route of exposure (inhalation).
Acute inhalation toxicity: A GLP study conducted according to OECD Guideline 403 is available to assess the acute inhalation toxicity of disodium fluorophosphate. The acute inhalation median lethal concentration (LC50) of the test material was found to be greater than the maximum attainable concentration and the study is therefore considered to be equivalent to a limit test conducted at 5mg/ L. In accordance with Regulation EC (No.) 1272/2008 (EU CLP) disodium fluorophosphate will not be classified for acute inhalation toxicity.

This was the highest technically achievable concentration. There was no indication of relevant sex-related differences in toxicity of the test item. There were no animal mortalities during the observation period.
This study is conducted according to an appropriate guideline and under the conditions of GLP, the study is therefore considered to be acceptable and to adequately satisfy both the guideline requirement and the regulatory requirement as a key study for this endpoint. - Executive summary:
A group of five male and five female albino rats [RccHanTM:WIST(SPF)] was exposed by nose-only, flow-past inhalation for four hours to the test item atagravimetricallydetermined mean concentration of 2.1 mg/L air.All animals were observed for clinical signs and mortality during the inhalation exposure and the subsequent 14-dayobservation period. Body weights were recorded prior to exposure on test day 1, and during the observation period on test days 2, 4, 8 and 15 before necropsy. On test day 15 all animals were sacrificed and necropsied.
The ranges of aerosol concentration, temperature, relative humidity, oxygen content and airflow rate measured during the exposure were considered to be satisfactory for a study of this type. In addition, the test item was considered to be respirable to rats.
All animals survived the scheduled observation period.
Clinical signs were limited to the day of exposure and consisted of ruffled fur in all and salivation in most animals.
From test day 1 to test day 2, transient body weight loss was noted in all animals. Body weight gain was observed thereafter.
No macroscopic findings were recorded.
In conclusion, the LC50ofDisodium monofluoro phosphateobtained in this study was estimated to be greater than 2.1 mg/Lair (gravimetrically determined mean aerosol concentration). This concentration was at the technical limit with a respirable particle size.There was no indication of relevant sex-related differences in toxicity of the test item.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity: The LD50 value reported by Shourie(1950) is to be used for the purposes of risk assessment. Shourie(1950) is comparable to the modern day guideline OECD 401, most notably because the study was conducted using rats rather than mice, as in Lim (1978). In addition to this, a wide range of doses were used in Shourie(1950) therefore generating more meaningful results which will provide a value closer to the true LD50. Finally, the value obtained in Shourie(1950) is a lower value and therefore represents a worst case scenario.
Acute dermal toxicity:
The standard testing regime, as defined in Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 has been adapted on the following basis:
In accordance with Annex VIII, Section 8.5.3, Column 2 of regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH) testing by the dermal route is appropriate if :
1. Inhalation of the substance is unlikely; and
2. skin contact in production and/or use is likely; and
3. the physicochemical and toxicological suggest a potential for a significant rate of absorption through the skin.
Although skin contact is likely during production and use of disodium fluorophosphate, inhalation of the substance is also likely and as such an acute inhalation study has been performed. As disodium fluorophosphate is an inorganic chemical with a molecular weight of >100 systemic absorption via the dermal route is unlikely and as such inhalation and oral routes are considered to be a worst-case for systemic absorption. In addition, no signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the acute skin and eye studies conducted on disodium fluorophosphate and therefore it can be reliably assumed that a full characterisation of the acute systemic toxicity profile of disodium fluorophosphate can be derived from the acute oral and inhalation studies and as such further in vivo testing would be unethical and could not be scientifically justified.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Three studies are available. This study is selected as it provides
the worst-case value.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Only one study available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Acute oral toxicity: Disodium fluorophosphate is considered to be classified for acute oral toxicity (Category 4) in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (EU CLP). The weight of evidence reports values for the LD50 of 570 - 1125.38 mg/kg bw. All values lie within the classification range for Category 4 and are sufficient for classification. No further testing is deemed scientifically justified.
Acute inhalation toxicity: Disodium fluorophosphate is not considered to be classified for acute inhalation toxicity in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (EU CLP).The key study is considered to be adequate and reliable for the purposes of classification and therefore further in vivo testing is not considered to be scientifically justified.
Acute dermal toxicity: Disodium fluorophosphate is not considered to be classified for acute dermal toxicity in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (EU CLP). A toxicologist's expert report is considered to be adequate and reliable for the purposes of classification and therefore further in vivo testing is not considered to be scientifically justified.
