HEALTH HAZARDS

1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Category 4 Warning H302: Harmful if swallowed P301+P312: IF SWALLOWED: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
P330: Rinse mouth.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 4 from LD50 value 1,450 mg/kg (SIDS (2001)) of the acute oral toxicity test (OECD TG 401, GLP) employing a mouse.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified - - - - It is described that LD50 value of the dermal administration test employing a rabbit is about 5,000 mg/kg (USCh (2002)). Although this LD50 value corresponded to the U.N. GHS acute toxicity Category 5, it fell under unadopted category in Japan and was classified into "Not classified".
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Since it was a solid by the definition of GHS and inhalation in gas was not assumed, it was classified into "Not applicable".
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Category 1 Danger H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage P301+P330+P331: IF SWALLOWED: Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.
P303+P361+P353: IF ON SKIN (or hair): Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower.
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 1 from description of corrosion (SIDS (2001)) in the skin irritation and corrosion test with rabbits (OECD TG 404, GLP).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 1 Danger H318: Causes serious eye damage P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
There are descriptions of "moderately irritating" in a rabbit (SIDS (2001)), "severe" irritation in the standard Draize test of a rabbit (RTECS (1997)), and "severe eye irritant" (HSDB (2003)) in humans, and all descriptions are qualitative evaluations. Since it was a skin corrosive substance, it was classified into Category 1.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - Classification is not possible since there is no data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - Classification is not possible since there is no data.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Not classified - - - - From a description of negative (SIDS (2001)) in the mouse micronucleus test (OECD TG474, GLP) using Dimethylalkylamine containing 70% of this substance (in addition, 25% C12-14- and 5% C16-dimethylalkylamine) as a body cell in vivo mutagenicity test, it was classified into "Not classified". There has been a description of being negative also in the in vitro mutagenicity test employing this substance (Ames test employing bacterial cells (OECD TG471andTG472, GLP)) .
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - Since there is no data, and no evaluation of major international evaluation agencies such as IARC is made, classification is not possible.
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 ...
Based on a report that a decrease in live births, increases in stillbirths and the average loss of embryos after implantation and a decrease in average viability indicators were observed at doses which affect mother animals in a reproductive/developmental toxicity screening oral administration test (OECD TG421, GLP) in rats (SIDS (2001)), it was classified as Category 2.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - It is written in 28-day oral administration test in rats (OECD TG 407, GLP) that slight effects are found (they rub their noses against the flooring) (SIDS (2001)). Although this effect is found within the scope of the guidance value of Category 2, it is not adopted since it is not considered serious effect. Since there is no other data, classification is not possible.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data

It was classified into Category 1 from 72 hours EC50=0.034mg/L of the algae (Scenedesmus) (SIDS (2005)).
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.

Although acute toxicity was Category 1 and there were rapid degradability (the decomposition by BOD: 74% (Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data (1977))), since there were bio-accumulation (LogKow = 5.44 (PHYSPROP Database (2008))), it was classified into Category 1.
