Although no concrete information of animal tests is available, there is a description that this substance is irritating and caustic to the skin (HSDB (Access on August 2015)). Besides, there are 3 reports of patch tests with volunteers as follows: as a result of application of this substance (2%) for 48 hours, 17 volunteers showed no reaction (DFGOT vol. 23 (2007)); as a result of application of this substance (1%) to 95 volunteers, 2 showed erythema and one showed infiltrating erythema (DFGOT vol. 23 (2007)); and, as a result of application of this substance (1%) to 80 volunteers, after 48 hours, 4 showed erythema and one showed infiltrating erythema (DFGOT vol. 23 (2007)). From the above, this substance was classified in Category 2. | FY2015 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1)) |

4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, in 3 reports of patch tests with volunteers, it is reported that as a result of applying this substance (1% or 2%) for 48 hours, no allergic reaction was observed (DFGOT vol. 23 (2007)). | FY2015 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1)) |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Category 2 |
Warning |
H341 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
As for in vivo, it was positive in a chromosomal aberration test with mouse bone marrow cells by oral administration (Initial Risk Assessment Report (NITE, CERI, NEDO, 2008)), and as for in vitro, a bacterial reverse mutation test, a micronucleus assay and a sister chromatid exchange analysis with mammalian cultured cells were positive (Initial Risk Assessment Report (NITE, CERI, NEDO, 2008)). From the above, since there is a positive result from the in vivo somatic cell mutagenicity test, this substance was classified in Category 2 according to the GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government. | FY2015 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1)) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | As for antimony compounds other than antimony trioxide, they were not classified for carcinogenicity by either ACGIH (ACGIH (7th, 2001)) or Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH) (Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits Vol.55 (2013)). Therefore, classification of this substance is not possible due to lack of data. | FY2015 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1)) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | There is a description on the following test. In a study where pregnant rats were dosed 1 or 10 mg/L (ca. 0.1 or 1 mg/kg/day) of this substance by drinking water during gestational period and lactation period until 60 days after weaning of the offspring, maternal rats showed dose-dependent weight loss on gestational day 20, but no effect on duration of pregnancy and the number of litter. In the pups of the high concentration group where the rats were continually dosed before and after birth, delay in body weight gain was seen, but no macroscopic malformations (DFGOT vol. 23 (2007), HSDB (Access on August 2015)). Despite of the above description, it is only the surficial abnormality observation, and it is an insufficient report to evaluate teratogenicity. In addition, as a result of administrating 187 mg/kg/day of this substance via intramuscular injection during the organogenesis period (6-15 gestational days) of pregnant rats, fetotoxicity (increase in fetal resorption, decrease in the number of alive fetus, decrease in fetal body weights) was observed, but there is no description of the effect on the maternal animals (Initial Risk Assessment Report (NITE, CERI, NEDO, 2008)). From the above, there is no adequate data for classification and classification was not possible due to lack of data. Besides, in the previous classification, there was a description that effect on the next generation was observed at the dose where general toxicity was observed in maternal animals. And it was considered that antagonism against for the vasopressor reaction in the pups, which occurred by administration of acetylcholine etc. or occlusion of carotid artery, was from the exposure of this substance. However, because exposure to this substance did not change systolic blood pressure in untreated animals, it was not judged to be appropriate as the evidence for classification from the view point of toxicological significance. |

8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 2 (respiratory organs) |
Warning |
H371 | P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P405 P501 |
There is a description that this substance induces respiratory tract irritation, rhinitis, acute pulmonary edema in humans (HSDB (Access on August 2015)) and effects on the respiratory organs were observed. However, because such information was not described in the information source in List 1, this substance was classified in Category 2 (respiratory organs). No data available for experimental animals. |
FY2015 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1)) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (blood system) |
Danger |
H372 | P260 P264 P270 P314 P501 |
No information on humans is available. As for experimental animals, in a 6-month oral dose test with guinea pigs, at 2.5 mg/kg/day, which is within the range of Category 1, an increase in globulin fraction in serum proteins, a decrease in total serum proteins, a decrease in haemoglobin level and red blood cell count, an increase in reticulocyte count and a decrease of free SH-groups in serum were observed. (DFGOT vol. 23 (2007)). Therefore, this substance was classified in Category 1 (haemal system). |
