P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
It was set as Category 3 from the value (LD50 = 263mg/kg) calculated based on rat dermal LD50 = 640, 337, 263mg/kg (EHC199 (1998)). | |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Category 4 | Warning | H332: Harmful if inhaled |
P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. |
It was set as Category 4 based on rat inhalation LC50 (1hr) = 14.7mg/L (4-hour equivalent 4.35mg/L) (JMPR206 (1972)). In addition, the saturated concentration of this product is about 0.47ppm (3.7mg/m3) (20degC), and it is presumed that the inhalation study was done in mist conditions. | |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 3 | - | Warning | H316: Causes mild skin irritation | P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. | It was set as Category 3 from description that skin of rabbits is stimulated slightly (EHC199 (1998)). |

P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. |
It is set as Category 2B from statement which stimulates eye of rabbit slightly (slight erythemas and conjunctival chemosis, and all are recovered within seven days)(EHC199 (1998)). |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Although a skin eruption is seen by the workers handling this substance (EHC199(1998), JMPR322(1975)), it cannot check that it is caused in the allergic reaction, and cannot classify according to the shortage of data. |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Not classified | - | - | - | - | There was a negative result of the reciprocal translocation test and a dominant fatality test using a mouse, the chromosome aberration test using a mouse spermatocyte, and a mouse spot test (EHC199(1998);JMPR719 (1985)). So it considered as the outside of Category. And it is classified as the out of the Category. In addition, it is reported that a Ames test is negativity (EHC199 (1998)). |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on being classificationed into "Group 3 (it being unable to classify about the carcinogenic to humans)." in IARC (IARC Suppl.7 (1987)), it carried out the outside of category by the technical indicator. In addition, about this product, "it is supposed that there is now only a less persuasive proof on correlation between exposure to a chlordimeform and human bladder cancer generating." (EHC199 (1998) (J)). Moreover, it is classified into Carc.cat 3 (GHS Category about [ 2 ]) according to the EU classification. |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Not classified | - | - | - | - | In rat three-generation administration tests and teratogenicity tests, and rabbit teratogenicity tests, only slight effects (decreased feeding & care, reduced weight of babies at weaning, ossification disorder of newborn's sternum, etc.) were seen at maternal toxicity dose (all of them in EHC199 (1998)). Thus, it was set as "out of category". |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 1 (nervous system, urinary bladder, kidney, cardiovascular system), Category 2 (blood) |
Danger Warning |
H370: Causes damage to organs (nervous system, urinary bladder, kidney, cardiovascular system) H371: May cause damage to organs (blood) |
P307+P311: IF exposed: 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. P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label). P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. |
Since there is description that in the document of Priority 1, "it causes a feeling of fatigue, nausea, and an appetite fall in acute poisoning, and causes lethargy, cyanosis, harndrang, cystitis, a cardiovascular actions (change of tachycardia, bradycardia and ECG), a coma, and a shock in severe cases."(EHC199 (1998)). Inaddition, the condition of the acute hemorrhagic cystitis accompanied by abdominal pain, dysuria and hematuria were observed to the workers who were engaged in washing of the tank used for the transport of this product (EHC199 (1998)). So it was considered as Category 1 (a nervous system, a bladder, the kidney, cardiovascular system). Moreover, it was considered as Category 2 (blood) from description (ICSC (J) (1994)) "it affects blood and methemoglobin is generated." | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (urinary bladder, kidney, cardiovascular system, skin) | Danger | H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (urinary bladder, kidney, cardiovascular system, skin) |
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 there is a report that humans in occupational and chronical exposure to this product were affected with hematuria, cystitis, dysuria, pruritus and a rash of the skin (exposure to the skin), etc. in addition to a part of above-mentioned acute symproms ((EHC199(1998), JMPR322(1975), JMPR719(1985)) the document of Priority 1), it was classified into Category 1 (a bladder, the kidney, cardiovascular systems,skin). | |

Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
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=1mg/L of fishes (Bluegill) (EHC199, 1998). | |
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 was Category 1, supposed not rapidly degrading (BIOWIN), though supposed less bioaccumulative (log Kow=2.89(PHYSPROP Database, 2005)). |
