From 48-hour EC50 = 0.77 mg/L for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (Results of Aquatic Toxicity Tests of Chemicals conducted by Environment Agency in Japan (Environment Agency, 1995), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances vol. 3 (Ministry of the Environment, 2004), Hazard Assessment Report (CERI, NITE, 2006)), it was classified in Category 1. |

If chronic toxicity data are used, then it is classified in Category 1 due to being not rapidly degradable (a degradation rate by BOD: 0% (Biodegradation and Bioconcentration Results of Existing Chemical Substances under the Chemical Substances Control Law, 1981)), and 21-day NOEC = 0.098 mg/L for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (Results of Aquatic Toxicity Tests of Chemicals conducted by Environment Agency in Japan (Environment Agency, 1995), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances vol. 3 (Ministry of the Environment, 2004), Hazard Assessment Report (CERI, NITE, 2006)). If acute toxicity data are used for a trophic level for which chronic toxicity data are not obtained, then it is classified in Category 2 due to being not rapidly degradable (a degradation rate by BOD: 0% (Biodegradation and Bioconcentration Results of Existing Chemical Substances under the Chemical Substances Control Law, 1981)), and 96-hour LC50 = 6.8 mg/L for fish (Oryzias latipes) (Results of Aquatic Toxicity Tests of Chemicals conducted by Environment Agency in Japan (Environment Agency, 1995), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances vol. 3 (Ministry of the Environment, 2004), Hazard Assessment Report (CERI, NITE, 2006)). It was classified in Category 1 by drawing a comparison between the above results. |

* A blank or "-" in a cell of classification denotes that the classification of the hazard class was not conducted. * Hazard_statement_and/or_Precautionary_statement will show when hovering the mouse over a code of Hazard_statement_and/or_Precautionary_statement. Hazard_statement_and/or_Precautionary_statement are also provided in the Excel file. * Classification was conducted by relevant Japanese Ministries in accordance with GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government, and is intended to provide a reference for preparing GHS labelling and SDS for users. * This is a provisional English translation of classification results and is subject to revision without notice. * The responsibility for any resulting GHS labelling and SDS referenced from this site is with users. * Codes assigned to each of the hazard statements and codes for each of the precautionary statement are based on the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) in United Nations. |
