1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 3 |
Danger |
H301 | P301+P310 P264 P270 P321 P330 P405 P501 |
Based on a LD50 value of 205 - 317 mg/kg for rats (PATTY (5th, 2001), IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified into Category 3. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Category 3 |
Danger |
H311 | P302+P352 P361+P364 P280 P312 P321 P405 P501 |
Based on the result of a rabbit test where all animals died at 2000 mg and all animals survived at 200 mg (PATTY (5th, 2001), IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified into Category 3. As relevant information, a LD50 value is 148 mg/kg for guinea pig (RTECS (2006)). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |

Danger |
H330 | P304+P340 P403+P233 P260 P271 P284 P310 P320 P405 P501 |
Based on a LC50 value of 25 ppm for rats (PATTY (5th, 2001), IUCLID (2000)) (OECD TG403 (GLP)), the substance was classified into Category 1. Since the LC50 value was lower than 90% of saturated vapour pressure concentration (4066 ppmV), the classification criteria of gas (ppm) was adopted. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |

Danger |
H370 | P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P321 P405 P501 |
Since in a rat inhalation test, effects included persistent disturbances in respiratory pattern, salivation, lethargy, and also lung congestion at a dose levels of 25 ppm/4h (vapour) within the guidance value range for Category 1 (PATTY (5th, 2001)), the substance was classified into Category 1 (respiratory system, nervous system). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. As relevant information, there is a report that changes in structure or function of the esophagus were observed at the LOAEL of 500 mg/kg in a rat 2-week oral test (RTECS (2006), the original literature: NTIS OTS0571119). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
