---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | Based on a LD50 value of 5675 mg/kg (2350 mg strontium/kg) for mice (ATSDR (2004)), the substance was classified into "Not classified". | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |

2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 |
Warning |
H315 | P302+P352 P332+P313 P362+P364 P264 P280 P321 |
Based on reports of "marked skin irritation" in rat and guinea pig tests (DFGOT vol. 25 (2009)) and "irritated the skin" in rabbits by topical application (HSDB (2003)), the substance was classified into Category 2. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2B |
Warning |
H320 | P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 |
Based on reports of "weakly irritated the conjunctival membrane in rabbits" (HSDB (2003)) and "highly irritating to the skin but only slightly irritating to the mucosa" (HSDB (2003)), the substance was classified into Category 2B. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |

6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible |

7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Although there is a report that no effect for fetal development was noted in a subcutaneous injection test with rats during gestation days 9 - 19 (DFGOT vol. 25 (2009)), this test is insufficient due to small number of animals (3/group) and no data for the effects on sexual function and fertility. Therefore, classification was not possible due to lack of data. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. As relevant information, as only information on the adverse effects, there is a case report of a 35-year-old female paramedic who developed a sudden, severe reaction upon inhaling fumes from a flare that contained strontium as strontium nitrate (ATSDR (2004)). Initial symptoms included coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath, and recovery ultimately required sedation, intubation, and intensive care for several days. Her medical history included several significant contributing factors which may have resulted in her severe reaction. Additionally, inhalation of flare combustion products are known to be irritating to the respiratory tract. Therefore, the exact contribution of strontium in this case is uncertain (ATSDR (2004)). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. As relevant information, there is an report that when rats were exposed to 44.6 mg/m3/4 hr for a month, decreased leukocyte count, changes in urine volume and component, increased synthesis function of the liver, histological findings such as interstitial pneumonia in the lungs, atrophy of the lymphatic system, dystrophy of hepatocytes and dystrophy in the epithelium of the renal tubules were seen (DFGOT vol. 25 (2009)). Since no details of test animals and compound were given and no report of method is provided, this test cannot be considered valid. Nevertheless, it gives an indication of systemic effects after inhalation of strontium compounds (DFGOT vol. 25 (2009)). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
