PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecules.
2 Flammable gases (including chemically unstable gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
6 Flammable liquids Not classified - - - - Although it is flammable (ICSC (J), 1997), there is almost no vapor pressure (ICSC (J), 1997). And PM (13th, 2003) has the description "it is stable in temperature up to 80 degC", it was thought that there was no danger of fire, and it was classified as out of Category.
7 Flammable solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive or self-reactive properties present in the molecule.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Not classified - - - - PM (13th, 2003) has the description "it is stable in temperature to 80 degC", and even if it contacts the normal temperature air, it does not ignite spontaneously.
10 Pyrophoric solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - - Test methods applicable to liquid substances are not available
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not classified - - - - Stable to water (the water solubility is obtained)
13 Oxidizing liquids Classification not possible - - - - No data available
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no -0-0- structure
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - Although HSDB (2003) has the description "it has no corrosion behavior," it is not clear whether the description is applied to metal. Since data is insufficient, it cannot be classified.

HEALTH HAZARDS

Based on the rat oral LD50 values : 6.8mg/kg (RTECS(2003)) and 20mg/kg (HSDB (2003)), we adopted the lower value to classify the substance as Category 2.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Category 1 Danger H310: Fatal in contact with skin P302+P350: IF ON SKIN: Gently wash with plenty of soap and water.
P262: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P322: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P361: Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.
P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Rat dermal LD50 = 27mg/kg (RTECS (2003)). Rabbit dermal LD50 = 1270mg/kg (RTECS (2003)). The lower one (LD50 = 27 mg/kg) was adopted, and it was set as Category 1.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible - - - - No data available
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - - Although there is description that redness and a pain are produced in a human eye in ICSC(J)(1997), irritation is not indicated as effects of short-term exposure. So data is insufficient and it cannot taxonomic.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data. In addition, there is that positive the in vitro sister-chromatid-exchange test using a human lymphocytes reports (RTECS (2003)).
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
7 Reproductive toxicity Category 2 Warning H361: Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child P308+P313: IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention.
P201: Obtain special instructions before use.
P202: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood.
P281: Use personal protective equipment as required.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
In three generations of rat mixed feed administration tests, since the fall of newborn weight, the increase in stillbirth, and decline in the survival rate until weaning were seen (HSDB (2003)), it was set as Category 2. In addition, teratogenicity is not acknowledged (HSDB (2003)).
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 2 (nervous system) Warning H371: May cause damage to organs (nervous system) P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Since there is description "nervous system may be affected and a spasm and a respiratory failure may be produced" in the document of Priority 2 (ICSC (J) (1997)), and there is a report of the poisoning (vomiting, nausea, and a person with an severe disease fall into a comatose state) by this product (HSDB (2003)), it was considered as Category 2 (nervous system).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 1 (nervous system) Danger H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (nervous system) P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Since tremor, decreased weight gain, and the decreased of cholinesterase activity were observed in four weeks of rat feeding administration test (100 ppm : about 5 to 10 mg/kg/day) (HSDB (2003)), and this dosage was within the guidance value range of Category 1, it was classified into Category 1 (nervous systems). Furthermore, the this product is a cholinesterase inhibitor, and there is description of a possibility that influence will be accumulated (ICSC (J), (1997), SITTIG (4th, 2002)).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) Category 1 Warning H400: Very toxic to aquatic life P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 1 from 96-hour LC50=1.2microg/L of Crustacea (Glass shrimp) (HSDB, 2004).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 1 Warning H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Classified into Category 1, since acute toxicity is Category 1, supposed not rapidly degrading (BIOWIN), and bioaccumulative (log Kow=5.33 (PHYSPROP Database, 2005)).
