Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
The information regarding the potssium hydrogen oxalate has been provided by read-across from oxalic acid.
Goldfish were exposed to oxalic acid during 48 h. The 48h LC0 values were 100 and 250 mg/l, 48 h LC50 values were 160 and 325 mg/l and the 48 h LC100 values were 250 and 400 mg/l.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Fresh water fish
Fresh water fish
- Effect concentration:
- 160 mg/L
Additional information
The result is from the chemically similar oxakic acid, EC205 -634 -3.
A 48 h toxicity and a 96 h toxicity test was carried out. Although generally preference would be given to 96 h toxicity tests for short term toxicity to fish, in this case the 48h toxicity test was selected, because: a) this was the best test (best described) and b) the observed LC50 was the lowest observed value.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
