The substance was classified as Category 1 (kidneys) and Category 3 (airway irritant) based on the reports concerning humans in Priority 1 documents that the target organs of the substance in the inorganic mercury compound are the kidneys (DFGOT, vol.15, 2001), and the report of potential irritant properties to the respiratory system in a Priority 2 document (HSFS, 1993). | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system, kidney) |
Danger |
H372 | P260 P264 P270 P314 P501 |
Since it was described the effect on the central nervous systems and the kidney of humans by inorganic mercury compounds in Priority 1 document (ACGIH-TLV, 2004;EHC, 118, 1991), it was classified into Category 1 (a central nervous systems, the kidney). | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
