- Executive summary:
Assessment of acute oral toxicity with Phosphonium, tetrakis (hydroxymethyl)-sulphate (2:1); polymer with urea in the rat (Acute Toxic Class Method). The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in:
OECD No.423 (2001) "Acute Oral Toxicity, Acute Toxic Class Method". Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, B1 tris: "Acute Oral Toxicity, Acute Toxic Class Method". EPA, OPPTS 870.1100 (2002), "Acute Oral Toxicity" and JMAFF Guidelines (2000), including the most recent revisions.
Initially, Phosphonium, tetrakis (hydroxymethyl)-sulphate (2:1); polymer with urea was administered by oral gavage to three female Wistar rats at 2000 mg/kg body weight. In a stepwise procedure three additional groups of three females were dosed at 300, 50 and 50 mg/kg body weight as active ingredient. The animals were subjected to daily observations and weekly determination of body weight. Macroscopic examination was performed on the day of death or after terminal sacrifice (Day 15).
All animals treated at 2000 and 300 mg/kg were found dead on Day 2.
At 2000 mg/kg, lethargy, hunched posture, abnormal gait, piloerection and/or ptosis were noted on Day 1.
At 300 mg/kg, hunched posture and piloerection were noted on Day 1.
At 50 mg/kg, hunched posture and/or piloerection were noted on Day 1.
The body weight gain shown by the surviving animals over the study period was considered to be similar to that expected for normal untreated animals of the same age and strain.
At 2000 and 300 mg/kg, abnormalities of the stomach (irregular surface, hardened and/or watery clear contents (only 300 mg/kg)) were found at macroscopic post-mortem examination. At 50 mg/kg, no abnormalities were found at macroscopic examination.
Under the test conditions of this study, the oral LD50 value of Phosphonium, tetrakis (hydroxymethyl)-sulphate (2:1); polymer with urea in Wistar rats was established to be within the range of 50-300 mg/kg body weight (as active ingredient).

Tetrakis[hydroxymethyl]phosphonium sulphate-urea copolymer did not cause mortality at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw.
Clinical Observations
There were no systemic clinical signs noted in any animal throughout the study.
Local dermal signs
Very slight erythema in four females (Days 1-3) and crust in three females were seen at the treated area after treatment with the test item. Besides these, no local dermal signs were observed during the 14 days observation period.
Body weight and body weight gain
Body weight gains of Tetrakis[hydroxymethyl]phosphonium sulphate-urea copolymer treated animals during the study showed no indication of a test item-related effect.
Macroscopic Findings
At necropsy, a few crusts were seen on the skin at the dorsal thoracic area in one female animal. Besides this, there was no evidence of the macroscopic observations at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw.
CONCLUSIONS
Under the conditions of this study, the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50 value) of the test item Tetrakis[hydroxymethyl]phosphonium sulphate-urea copolymer was found to be above 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female Crl:WI rats. There were no systemic effects of treatment.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The oral LD50 value of Phosphonium, tetrakis (hydroxymethyl)-sulphate (2:1); polymer with urea in Wistar rats was established to be within the range of 50-300 mg/kg body weight (as active ingredient), (OECD 423, GLP, Kr.1). Therefore, the test substance is considered as toxic if swallowed and classified into category 3 (H301) according to the criteria of the CLP Regulation (EC) NĀ°1272/2008.
The oral LD50 value of Phosphonium, tetrakis (hydroxymethyl)-sulphate (2:1); polymer with urea in Wistar rats was established to be greater than 2000 mg/kg.
