---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 3 |
H301 |
P301+P310 P264 P270 P321 P330 P405 P501 |
On the basis of an LD50 value of 90 mg/kg bw for rats (HSDB (2002)), it was classified in Category 3. | |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Category 3 |
H311 |
P302+P352 P280 P312 P322 P361 P363 P405 P501 |
From an LD50 value of 250mg/kg for rats (RTECS (2003): original literature; World Review of Pest Control. (London, UK) 9, 119, 1970) , classification 'T; R24' in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on June 2011)), it was classified in Category 3. Besides, details of a reported LD50 value of 34 mg/kg for rabbits (RTECS (2003)) from List 3 information are unknown. |
|
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not applicable | - | - | - | It is a liquid at normal temperatures. (CRC (91st, 2010)) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
The classification is not possible due to no in vivo test data. Besides, a negative in an Ames test is reported as an in vitro test. (NTP DB (1986)) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 2 (central nervous system) |
H371 |
P309+P311 P260 P264 P270 P405 P501 |
There is the information that a main acute poisoning symptom by thiocyanate pesticides is convulsions (HSDB (2002)), and there is the information that a principal systemic reaction by an exposure to aliphatic thiocyanates is probably central nervous depression interrupted by restlessness, hyperpnea, and tonic convulsions (HSDB (2002)). In animal tests, rats showed coma, cyanosis, dyspnea, and tonic convulsions by oral administration at 90 mg/kg of this substance (DHP (13th, 2002)), and symptoms of tremors, paralysis, spasticity, and opisthotonos in rabbits in various administration routes are reported (HSDB (2002)). From the above knowledge, all of which are from evaluation documents in List 2, it was classified in Category 2 (central nervous system). |

9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |

11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) | Category 2 | - |
H401 |
P273 P501 |
From 96-hour LC50 = 3.2 mg/L for fish (Oncorhynchus clarkii) (AQUIRE, 2012), it was classified in Category 2. |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) | Category 2 |
H411 |
P273 P391 P501 |
Reliable chronic toxicity data are not obtained. Due to lack of rapid degradability (BIOWIN), and acute toxicity Category 2, it was classified in Category 2. |
|
12 | Hazardous to the ozone layer | Classification not possible | - | - | - | This substance is not listed in Annexes to the Montreal Protocol. |
