If it is 59 degC, it is Category 3; however, according to UNRTDG No. (2656), it is classified as 6.1 and III. Since 3 was not assigned, 99 degC (Closed Cup) (HSDB, 2003) was adopted, and it was considered as out of Category. |

Of the LD50 values in rats of 331mg/kg and 460mg/kg (PATTY (5th, 2001), RTECS (2004), HSDB(2003) and IUCLID (2000)), we adopted the lower value to classify the substance as Category 4. | |

Positive finding is seen in the in vivo small core test using mouse bone marrow cells, in the gene mutation test using mice liver, and the chromosome aberration test using rat hepatic cells (all are IRIS(s) (2001)). So it is classified into Category 2 according to classification guidelines flow. | |

P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since there was description that in Priority 2, a cough, stuffiness, and breathlessness were produced by human exposure of this product and pulmonary edemas and the dyspnea by respiratory muscle paralysis are caused (HSDB (2003), ICSC (J), (1993), SITTIG (4th, 2002)) in high exposure, it was considered as Category 2 (respiratory systems). | |

P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Because of the reports in Priority 1 and 2 that the effects on rats liver (vascular neoplasm of liver, an increase in liver weight, and bile duct proliferation) at doses classified as Category 2 for guidance values (PATTY (5th, 2001), IUCLID (2000)), and of the description in Priority 2 of the effects on human livers and eyes (retinae) (ICSC(J) (1993), HSDB (2003), SITTIG (4th, 2002)), it was classified into Category 2 (liver, eye (retina)). | |

P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Classified into Category 3, since acute toxicity was Category 3 and not rapidly degrading (BOD: 0.2% (existing chemical safety inspections data)), though less bio-accumulative (BCF=3.8 (existing chemical safety inspections data)). |
