Considering rat dermal LD50 = 820mg/kg (RTECS (2000)), it was set as Category 3.
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 - - - - No data available
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 - - - - Although there is the positive report in Ames test in extremely high dose (RTECS (2000)), there is no other data including in vivo. So it cannot be classified because of insufficient data
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (brain) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (brain) 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 ...
Since a degenerative change of the brain was observed in a rat and a dog as a result of the repeated dose of the this product to a rat (13 weeks or 2 years) and a dog (13 weeks) (RTECS (2000)), it was classified into Category 2 (brain). In addition, although each influential given dose is equivalent to Category 1 in a guidance value, it is data in the document of Priority 2, and was classified into Category 2 according to the technical indicator.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available
