-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1) to (7), it was classified as "Not classified."

[Evidence Data]

6 Carcinogenicity Not classified
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1) to (4), it was classified as "Not classified."

[Evidence Data]
(1) As for the classification results by domestic and international organizations, the EPA classified this substance in NL (Not Likely to be Carcinogenic to Humans) (EPA Annual Cancer Report (2019): Classification in 2006)
(2) In a carcinogenicity study with rats (dosed by feeding for two years), no evidence of carcinogenicity was observed up to the highest dose of 50,000 ppm (males/females: 2,290/2,900 mg/kg/day) (Risk Assessment Report (Pesticides) (Food Safety Commission of Japan, 2014), A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2015), CLH Report (2014), JMPR Report (2014)).
(3) In a carcinogenicity study with mice (dosed by feeding for two years), no evidence of carcinogenicity was observed up to the highest dose of 10,000 ppm (Risk Assessment Report (Pesticides) (Food Safety Commission of Japan, 2014), CLH Report (2014), JMPR Report (2014), A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2015)).
(4) In another carcinogenicity study with mice (dosed by feeding for two years), which was different from the study of (3), an increase in the incidence of spleen hemangiosarcomas was observed in females in the 50,000 ppm dose group. However, as this finding was not accompanied by an increase in angiomas (benign tumors), it was not considered to be related to the administration of the test substance. An increase in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinomas in administrated male mice was observed. However, this finding was not considered to be related to the administration of the test substance because the incidence of hepatic tumors in the control group happened to be low (Risk Assessment Report (Pesticides) (Food Safety Commission of Japan, 2014), CLH Report (2014), JMPR Report (2014)).

[Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1) to (3), it was classified in Category 2, and effects on lactation were added. In (1), a lower survival rate of pups was observed at doses where slight maternal toxicity was observed. Based on (2) and (3), it was considered that there was a possibility that this substance was excreted in the milk of lactating female rats, inducing the increased mortality, etc. of pups exposed via the milk.

[Evidence Data]
(1) In a two-generation reproduction toxicity study with rats dosed by feeding (GLP), at doses where no effect was observed in dams (an increase in kidney weight (P) and reduced body weight gain (F1) were observed in male animals), a decrease in body weight of weanlings and an increase in relative liver weight were observed in pups. At the highest dose where only alopecia was observed in dams, a lower survival rate of weanlings (F1 and F2), delayed acoustic startle reaction (F1), a decrease in body weight (F2), etc. were observed. It was reported that no effect on fertility was observed (Risk Assessment Report (Pesticides) (Food Safety Commission of Japan, 2014), A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2015), CLH Report (2009)).
(2) It was reported that in an oral toxicity test with rats (for about 10 weeks from 2 weeks before mating until parturition), after exposure of 20,000 ppm, this substance was excreted in milk in lactating rats at levels of 450 ± 377 ppm (day 1 post-partum) and 9.4 ± 6.1 ppm (day 14 post-partum) (CLH Report (2009)). It was shown that this substance was excreted in milk of lactating rats and it accumulated in body fat (JMPR (2014)).
(3) In the two-generation reproduction toxicity study of (1), there were increased mortality of pups and increased total litter losses in the four generations (F1a, F1b, F2a, F2b) at or above the dose of 710 ppm. In the opinion of the RAC, lactational exposure of the pups was essential for the induction of the effects, and based on (2), this substance was detected in the milk of exposed dams after parturition. The plausible explanation for the cause of the increased mortality of pups was that as a consequence of exposure to this substance, triglyceride (TG) levels in the dams were reduced, resulting in a decreased fat quantity in the milk, which was therefore poorer in quality, and the RAC supported the additional proposal on "effects on or via lactation" (RAC Opinion (2011)).

[Reference Data, etc.]
(4) In the EU CLP classification, it was classified as Lact. (effects on or via lactation) (Accessed Oct. 2020).
