But from description that the skin irritation responses were acknowledged by single sprays to the sheep (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), and description that the skin reactions were acknowledged by repeated skin exposure to the rabbit (EHC 15 (1980)). So it was judged that there was skin irritation and it was set as Category 2.	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）

This GHS classification was conducted based on the information sources and the guidance for classification and judgement which are described in the GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government etc. Using other literature, test results etc. as evidence and including different content from this classification result in a label or SDS are allowed.
Hazard statement and precautionary statement will show by hovering the mouse cursor over a code in the column of "Hazard statement" and "Precautionary statement," respectively. In the excel file, both the codes and statements are provided.
A blank or "-" in the column of "Classification" denotes that a classification for the hazard class was not conducted in the year.
An asterisk “*” in the column of “Classification” denotes that “Not classified (or No applicable)” and/or “Classification not possible” is applicable. Details are described in the column of “Rationale for the classification”.
