Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- inhalation: dust
- Type of inhalation exposure:
- nose only
- Vehicle:
- other: unchanged (no vehicle).
- Details on inhalation exposure:
- Animals were exposed to the test substance via the inhalatory route. For this purpose the animals were placed in restraining tubes, connected to the exposure chamber.
The design of the exposure chamber was based on the flow past nose-only inhalation chamber (Am. Ind. Hyg Assoc. J. 44(12): 923-928, 1983). The chamber consisted of 3 animal sections with 8 animal ports each. The number of animal sections and number of open animal ports were adapted to the air flow in such a way that at each animal port the theoretical air flow was on average 1.4 L/min, which ensures an adequate oxygen supply to the test animals. The inlet of the test atmosphere was located at the top section and the outlet was located at the bottom section. The direction of the flow of the test atmosphere guaranteed a freshly generated atmosphere for each individual animal.
The placement of the individual animals in the inhalation chamber is shown in the test report. All components of the exposure chamber, which could come in contact with the test material, were made of stainless steel, glass, rubber or plastic. To avoid exposure of the personnel and contamination of the laboratory the exposure chamber was placed in a fume hood, which was maintained at a slightly negative pressure. - Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:

- Executive summary:
Assessment of acute inhalatory toxicity with Diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate in the rat
The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in:
- OECD Guidelines, Section 4, Health Effects. No.403, "Acute Inhalation Toxicity", September 2009.
- Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008,B.2. Acute Toxicity (inhalation),L142, May 2008.
- EPA OPPTS 870.1300, Acute inhalation Toxicity. EPA 712-C-98-193, August 1998.
- JMAFF, 12 Nousan, Notification No 8147, November 2000, including the most recent partial revisions.
Diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate was administered as an aerosol by inhalation for 4 hours to one group of five male and five female Wistar rats. Animals were subjected to daily observations and determination of body weight on Days 1, 2, 4, 8 and 15. Macroscopic examination was performed after terminal sacrifice (day 15).
The mean actual time-weighed concentration was 4.84 ± 0.28 mg/L. The nominal concentration was 442.92 mg/L. The generation efficiency (ratio of actual and nominal concentration) was 1.1%.
The Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) and geometric standard deviation (gsd) were determined twice. The MMAD was 6.0mm and 5.6mm respectively and the gsd was 1.8 in both cases.
No mortality occurred and no clinical signs were noted during and after exposure.
The body weight gain shown by the animals over the study period was considered to be normal.
No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.
Agglomeration of aerosol particles at this high concentration tested resulted in MMAD values to exceed the recommended range of 1 - 4 µm. Additional efforts to reduce the MMAD were unsuccessful and the MMAD remained significantly larger than 4 µm (i.e. use of a micronizing jet-mill and two cyclones, lowering the concentration down to 1 mg/L). Since the gsd of 1.8 determined during the actual exposure indicated that the aerosol was polydisperse and since approximately 20% of the particles were smaller than 4 µm, it can be assumed that test substance deposition in the lower respiratory tract occurred during the exposure.
It was therefore considered that the outcome of this study is valid for the limit concentration of 5 mg/L.Since no mortality occurred at the limit concentration, no full study using lower concentrations was conducted.
The inhalatory LC50, 4hvalue of Diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate in Wistar rats was considered to exceed 5 mg/L under the conditions in this study.
Based on these results Diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for acute inhalation toxicity according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2007) and Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures.
