USES/FORMS/SOURCES
Fluoroacetic acid is a strong acid (pKa = 2.66) (HSDB , 1993). It occurs as colorless, odorless crystals, needles, or powder and is soluble in water (Lewis, 1993) and alcohol (HSDB , 1993). Fluoroacetic acid is a HIGHLY TOXIC SUBSTANCE. Little toxicologic data were available specifically for fluoroacetic acid; its toxicity is thought to be similar to that of FLUOROACETATE (Budavari, 1989; Sax & Lewis, 1989; EPA, 1985). This review is based on the properties of fluoroacetate (as SODIUM FLUOROACETATE). Effects attributed specifically to fluoroacetic acid are identified.
-CLINICAL EFFECTS
GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Fluoroacetic acid is the major metabolite of the series of fluoro ester compounds. It is used as a rodenticide. Little specific data were available specifically about the toxicity of fluoroacetic acid; its toxicity is expected to be similar to that of FLUOROACETATE.
The following review discusses the toxicity and treatment of poisoning with FLUOROACETATE. Fluoroacetic acid is a colorless crystalline solid which burns with a green flame and which is soluble in water and alcohol. It can be irritating. It may be absorbed following ingestion, inhalation, and dermal contact.
- Clinical effects are usually seen within 1/2 hour of exposure. Symptoms of nausea, vomiting, excessive salivation, abdominal pain, numbness, a tingling sensation, and apprehension are seen initially, and may last for up to 6 hours. Muscular twitching, blurred vision, and hypotension may develop.
Severe effects such as coma, convulsions, and cardiac arrhythmias may be delayed in onset as long as 20 hours. One death due to subacute fluoroacetate poisoning has been reported. The cardiac effects noted include tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and sudden onset of asystole. Death may occur from respiratory depression and hypoxia during convulsions or cardiac arrest. Neurologic sequelae and acute renal failure have been described after acute poisoning. Metabolic acidosis, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, elevated levels of hepatic transaminases, and elevated serum creatinine may occur in fluoroacetate poisoning.
- At least one case of severe poisoning with numbness and tingling of the face, excessive salivation, blurred vision, peripheral paresthesias, convulsions, and coma has occurred from inhalation and dermal contact with fluoroacetate. In general, fluoroacetate is absorbed following ingestion and inhalation, but not through intact skin.
- Fluoroacetate mimics acetic acid and reacts with coenzyme A and oxaloacetic acid, forming fluorocitric acid which enters and blocks the Kreb's cycle, allowing accumulation of citric acid.
- Fluoroacetamide releases toxic and irritating fumes of sodium oxide and fluoride when heated to decomposition. Inhalation exposure to such fumes would be expected to result in respiratory irritation with bronchospasm, chemical pneumonitis, or noncardiogenic pulmonary edema.
- POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 154 (ERG, 2004)
TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
ACUTE CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Based on its acute oral LD50 of approximately 5 mg/kg in rats (RTECS , 1993), fluoroacetic acid is a HIGHLY TOXIC substance. It may be absorbed following ingestion, inhalation, and dermal contact (Sax & Lewis, 1989; EPA, 1985). It can be irritating (Budavari, 1989).
- Fluoroacetate is very rapidly absorbed. A milligram of pure fluoroacetate is probably enough to cause severe toxicity, and less may be toxic. A dose of 2 to 10 mg/kg (140 to 700 mg for a 70 kg adult) may be fatal (Egekeze & Oehme, 1979; Baselt & Cravey, 1989). One death due to subacute fluoroacetate poisoning has been reported (Peters et al, 1981).
- Clinical effects of fluoroacetate poisoning are usually seen within 1/2 hour of exposure (HSDB , 1993; Grant, 1986). Fluoroacetate produces initial symptoms of nausea, vomiting, excessive salivation, abdominal pain, numbness, a tingling sensation, and apprehension, which may last for up to 6 hours (HSDB , 1993; Grant, 1986; Ellenhorn & Barceloux, 1988). Muscular twitching, blurred vision, and hypotension may develop (HSDB , 1993; Grant, 1986). Epileptiform convulsions can occur and eventually lead to severe depression. Pulsus alternans is also possible followed by ventricular fibrillation (Haley & Berndt, 1987). Auditory hallucinations can occur (Proctor et al, 1988).
- At least one case of severe poisoning with numbness and tingling of the face, excessive salivation, blurred vision, peripheral paresthesias, convulsions, and coma has occurred from inhalation and dermal contact with fluoroacetate (Grant, 1986).
- Severe effects of fluoroacetate poisoning, such as coma, convulsions, and cardiac arrhythmias, may be delayed in onset as long as 20 hours (Reigart et al, 1975; HSDB , 1993). Death may occur from respiratory depression and hypoxia during convulsions or cardiac arrest (HSDB , 1993).
- Acute fluoroacetate poisoning can affect the heart. The cardiac effects noted include tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and sudden onset of asystole (HSDB , 1993; Ellenhorn & Barceloux, 1988). Other effects of acute fluoroacetate poisoning are delayed neurotoxicity, acute kidney failure, metabolic acidosis, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, elevated levels of hepatic transaminases, and elevated serum creatinine (McTaggart, 1970; Trabes et al, 1983; Baselt & Cravey, 1989; Ellenhorn & Barceloux, 1988; Chung, 1984).
- Fluoroacetate mimics acetic acid and reacts with coenzyme A and oxaloacetic acid, forming fluorocitric acid which inhibits the enzyme aconitase, preventing the conversion of citrate to isocitrate, thus blocking the Krebs cycle and inhibiting oxidative energy metabolism (Haley & Berndt, 1987; HSDB , 1993; Baselt & Cravey, 1989).
CHRONIC CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Neurologic, liver, kidney, and thyroid dysfunction were seen in an exterminator repeatedly exposed to fluoroacetate during a 10-year period, and in a rabbiter who was repeatedly exposed to sodium fluoroacetate (Parkin et al, 1977; Proctor et al, 1988). No other reports of chronic exposure to fluoroacetate were found at the time of this review.

SUMMARY
- FIRST AID - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 154 (ERG, 2004)
Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Keep victim warm and quiet. Effects of exposure (inhalation, ingestion or skin contact) to substance may be delayed. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves.
-RANGE OF TOXICITY
MINIMUM LETHAL EXPOSURE
A milligram of pure compound is probably enough to cause severe toxicity, and less may be toxic. Extrapolation of experimental animal toxicity data to humans indicates that a dose of 2 to 10 mg/kg (140 to 700 mg for a 70-kg adult) may be fatal (Egekeze & Oehme, 1979; Baselt & Cravey, 1989).
A death was reported after ingestion of 465 mg or more in an adult (Harrisson et al, 1952). Prior to 1955, there were 23 cases of poisoning in humans, 17 with fatal outcomes (Brockmann et al, 1955).
