Description of key information

The available data refer to the degradation products of calcium phosphorylcholine chloride (choline and inorganic phosphate):

Short-term toxicity to fish:

- Key study. Method according to OECD 203. GLP study. The 96h-LC50 of the substance choline chloride in Oryzias latipes was higher than 100 mg/L (nominal), based on mortality.

- Key study. Method according to OECD 203. GLP study. The 96h-LC50 of the substance calcium hydrogenorthophosphate in Oryzias latipes was above 100 mg/L (nominal) and the NOEC was 100 mg/L, both based on mortality.

Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:

- Key study. Method according to OECD 202. GLP study.The 48h-EC50 of choline chloride in Daphnia magna was determined to be 349 mg/L (nominal) and the 48h-NOEC was determined to be 180 mg/L (nominal), both based on mobility.

- Key study. Method according OECD to 202. GLP study.The 48h-EC50 of calcium hydrogenorthophosphate in Daphnia magna was higher than 100 mg/L (nominal) and 2.9 mg/L (measured), based on mobility.

Long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates

- Key study. OECD 211. GLP study.The 21 day-EC50 of choline chloride in Daphnia magna was 58.9 mg/L and the 21 day-NOEC was 30.2 mg/L.

Toxicity to aquatic algae and cyanobacteria

- Key study. OECD 201. GLP study.The 72h-EC50 (based on growth rate reduction) of choline chloride in Pseudokichneriella subcapitata was greater than 1000 mg/L and the 72h-NOEC was 1000 mg/L.

- Key study. OECD 201. GLP study.The 72h-EC50 of calcium hydrogenorthophosphate in Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was found to be higher than 100 mg/L (nominal) and the NOEC was determined to be 100 mg/L, both based on growth rate.

Toxicity to microorganisms

- Key study. Method according OECD 301. The test item was not inhibitory to microorganisms (93.5% biodegradation in 14d) at a concentration of 100 mg/L. Therefore, the NOEC value for the test item in microorganisms is greater than 100 mg/L.

Based on this information, it can be concluded that the substance phosphoryl choline chloride has an 96h-LC50 in Oryzias latipes above 100 mg/L, a 48h-EC50 in Daphnia magna higher than 100 mg/L, a 72h-EC50 in Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata higher than 100 mg/L and a NOEC for microorganism toxicity of 100 mg/L.
