2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Category 2	Warning	H315	P302+P352 P332+P313 P362+P364 P264 P280 P321	It is reported in SIDS (2006) that in a skin irritation test with rabbits according to OECD TG 404, a skin irritation score after 72 hours was 2.9, and among erythema and edema that were observed, erythema disappeared within 15 days. Other than this, it is reported that in a sensitization test with guinea pigs according to OECD TG 406, irritation by this substance markedly occurred. Besides, it is reported that in a maximization test (concentration in petrolatum: 8%) in 108 volunteers, there was no irritation. Among the above information, based on the test according to TG 404, it was classified in Category 2.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Category 2B	- Warning	H320	P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264	In two eye irritation tests (OECD TG 405) with rabbits, it was assessed to be slightly irritating (SIDS (2006)). In one test of them, corneal opacity, iritis, conjunctival redness, and chemosis were observed as findings, the average scores on day 1 were 1 or higher for corneal opacity and 2 or higher for conjunctival redness, and most findings disappeared within eight days. Therefore, it was classified in Category 2B.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))

4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is reported in SIDS (2006) that in a test with guinea pigs (OECD TG 406), there was no skin sensitization, but in a maximization test in 108 volunteers, sensitization was observed in eight persons.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. As for in vivo, it was negative in a micronucleus test with mouse bone marrow cells (SIDS (2006)). As for in vitro, it was negative in a bacterial reverse mutation test (SIDS (2006)).	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
7	Reproductive toxicity	Category 2	Warning	H361	P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501	As for fertility, in a one-generation reproductive toxicity test with rats in the oral route, reproductive toxicity (increased mortality of offspring on postnatal days 1-4) was observed at the dose where maternal toxicity (salivation, increased kidney and liver weights) was seen. As for developmental toxicity, no developmental toxicity was observed in the one-generation reproductive toxicity test with rats in the oral route and a developmental toxicity test with hamsters in the oral route (SIDS (2006)). Therefore, it was classified in Category 2.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is reported that no adverse effects were observed after oral administration to rats at the dose (2,000 mg/kg) within the guidance value range (SIDS (2006)). Therefore, it is thought to correspond to "Not classified" in the oral route. However, because of no toxicity information on the other routes, it was classified as "Classification not possible" due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	In a 28-day gavage administration test with rats, increased ALT activity was observed in males at the dose (converted guidance value: 77.8 mg/kg/day) within the guidance value range for Category 1-2, but no pathological changes were found in the liver (SIDS (2006)). Therefore, it corresponds to "Not classified" in the oral route. However, because of no toxicity information on the other routes, it was classified as "Classification not possible" due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
