Description of key information
Additional information
Phosphoric acid, potassium salt (2:3), dihydrate is applied into the soil as fertilizer for different types of crops. This substance has low potential for adsorption to solid particles (as it will be rapidly transformed in water into its dissociated forms). Since phosphates and potassium are considered essential nutrients for terrestrial organisms, which possess internal mechanisms to regulate them, bioaccumulation and toxicity are not expected. The acute studies conducted on aquatic organisms showed no effects of the substance in fish, aquatic invertebrates or algae. Thus, even though the substance is directly applied to the soil, no hazard for terrestrial organisms is expected. Considering this information and animal welfare, terrestrial toxicity testing is not deemed necessary.
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.
