HEALTH HAZARDS

Hazard class		Classification	Pictogram Signal word	Hazard statement (code)	Precautionary statement (code)	Rationale for the classification	Classification year (FY)	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government
1	Acute toxicity (Oral)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Although its rat LD50 of > 2000 mg/kg is documented (NICNAS (1995)), classification is not possible based only on this LD50 value obtained using an unlisted dataset.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Although its rabbit LD50 of > 2000 mg/kg is documented (NICNAS (1995)), classification is not possible based only on this LD50 value obtained using an unlisted dataset.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	Solid (GHS definition)	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Although rabbit tests found that the substance is not irritating (NICNAS (1995)), classification is not possible based only on this result obtained using unlisted datasets.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Although rabbit tests found that the substance is not irritating (NICNAS (1995)), classification is not possible based only on this result obtained using unlisted datasets.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Although Draize tests using guinea pigs found that the substance is sensitizing (NICNAS (1995)), classification is not possible based only on this result obtained using unlisted datasets.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Although in vitro mutagenicity test results are available (NICNAS (1995)), classification is not possible based only on these results obtained using unlisted datasets.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. In 28-day oral administration toxicity tests using rats, inhibition of cholinesterase, and enlarged livers and adrenal gland were detected as effects of exposure; however, since there were no neurotoxic effects due to the inhibition of cholinesterase, these effects of exposure healed almost completely during the observational period after administration (NICNAS (1995)). Nevertheless, classification is not possible based only on these results obtained using unlisted datasets.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

Hazard class		Classification	Pictogram Signal word	Hazard statement (code)	Precautionary statement (code)	Rationale for the classification	Classification year (FY)	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government
11	Hazardous to the aquatic environment Short term (Acute)	Category 2	- -	H401	P273 P501	Since its 72-hour EC50 = 1.5 mg/L for algae (Scenedesmus) (NICNAS 1995), the substance was classified into Category 2.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
11	Hazardous to the aquatic environment Long term (Chronic)	Category 2	-	H411	P273 P391 P501	Since its classification for acute toxicity is Category 2, and it is not rapidly degradable (degradability after 28 days = 6%: OECD TG 301B, NICNAS 1995), the substance was classified into Category 2.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
12	Hazardous to the ozone layer	-	- -	-	-	-	-	-

NOTE:

GHS Classification Result by the Japanese Government is intended to provide a reference for preparing a GHS label or SDS for users. To include the same classification result in a label or SDS for Japan is NOT mandatory.
Users can cite or copy this classification result when preparing a GHS label or SDS. Please be aware, however, that the responsibility for a label or SDS prepared by citing or copying this classification result lies with users.
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”. If no English translation is available for “Rationale for the classification,” please refer to the Japanese version of the results.
