Short-term systems to assess thiophosphoryl chloride standards.

D Coloşi-Esca, Z Anca, F Barbarino

    Journal of Applied Toxicology : JAT
    |October 1, 1984

    Summary

    Thiophosphoryl chloride (PSCl3) shows toxicity in rats, with effects on organ weights and blood chemistry. However, it did not cause fetal malformations or mutagenicity, leading to a recommended workplace exposure limit.

    Area of Science:

    • Toxicology
    • Occupational Health

    Background:

    • Thiophosphoryl chloride (PSCl3) is an industrial chemical requiring toxicological assessment.
    • Understanding its effects is crucial for workplace safety and risk management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the toxicity of thiophosphoryl chloride (PSCl3) in a rat model.
    • To determine potential health risks associated with PSCl3 exposure.

    Main Methods:

    • Acute oral LD50 determination in rats.
    • 90-day subchronic oral feeding study with hematological and biochemical analysis.
    • Teratology and mutagenicity testing.
    • Assessment of organ weights and histopathological changes.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Acute oral LD50: 750 mg/kg.
  • Subchronic study showed increased body weight gain but inconsistent organ weight changes and significant hematological/biochemical alterations indicating toxicity.
  • Reversible liver dystrophic changes noted; potential for hepatitis reactivation.
  • No teratogenic or mutagenic effects observed.
  • Recommended maximum allowable concentration in air: 3 mg/m³.
  • Conclusions:

    • PSCl3 exhibits toxicity, affecting organ systems and blood parameters in rats.
    • Despite toxic effects, no developmental or genetic toxicity was detected.
    • A maximum allowable concentration of 3 mg/m³ is recommended for occupational settings.
