Rationale for the classification | Classification year (FY) | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | It was classified as "Not classified" based on two LD50 values for rats (> 5,000 mg/kg (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)) and > 4,000 mg/kg (Evaluation of effect for the food safety (Food Safety Commission, 2011))). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | It was classified as "Not classified" because it is reported that there was no death after administration of 2,000 mg/kg to rats, and an LD50 value was > 2,000 mg/kg (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |

1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Category 4 |
Warning |
H332 | P304+P340 P261 P271 P312 |
It was classified in Category 4 based on an LC50 value by 4-hour exposure (dust) in rats of 1.70 mg/L (females) to 2.45 mg/L (males) (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Not classified |
- |
- | - | In a test in which 0.5 g of this substance was applied to the rabbit skin for 4 hours (GLP-compliant), no irritation reactions such as erythema and edema were observed, the primary irritation index was 0, and it was judged as not irritating to the skin (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). Therefore, it was classified as "Not classified." | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Not classified |
- |
- | - | In a test in which 0.1 g of this substance was applied to the rabbit eye (GLP-compliant), conjunctival flush (score 1) in two out of six animals and chemosis (score 1) in one of them were observed 1 hour after the application, but these disappeared after 24 hours. As a result, this substance was judged as not irritating to the rabbit eye (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). Therefore, it was classified as "Not classified." | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
4 | Skin sensitization | Not classified |
- |
- | - | In a skin sensitization test by a maximization test with guinea pigs, no local reactions such as erythema and edema were observed in the group treated with the test substance like the control group (not induced) for the test substance. On the other hand, moderate to severe erythema and edema were found in all animals in the group treated with DNCB, the positive control, but no changes were seen in the control group (not induced) for DNCB. The positive rate was 0% (0/18) in the test conditions, and oxolinic acid was judged to be not a skin sensitizer (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). Therefore, it was classified as "Not classified." | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Not classified |
- |
- | - | It was classified as "Not classified" based on a negative result in a micronucleus test with bone marrow cells after intraperitoneal administration to mice (in vivo somatic cell mutagenicity test) (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). And it was also reported to be negative in a sister chromatid exchange test with bone marrow cells after oral administration to mice (in vivo somatic cell genotoxicity test) (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). Besides, as for in vitro tests, it is reported that it was positive in an Ames test, negative in a gene mutation test with cultured cells derived from Chinese hamsters (V79), and weakly positive in a chromosomal aberration test with CHL cells (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | In a chronic toxicity/carcinogenicity test by 24-month diet administration to rats (0, 30, 100, 300, 1,000 ppm, GLP), a significant increase in interstitial cell tumors in the testis was observed in males in the 1,000 ppm group, but there was no other dose-related increase in the incidence of tumors (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). It is reported that by investigating the mechanism of development, the increase in the testicular tumors was most likely to be secondary carcinogenesis caused by increased LH release from the anterior lobe of the pituitary through the dopaminergic nervous system of the hypothalamus, not carcinogenesis by direct action to the testis (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). Therefore, it is hard to regard it as evidence of carcinogenicity in humans. On the other hand, in an 18-month diet administration carcinogenicity test with mice (0, 50, 150, 500 ppm, GLP), no incidences of tumors significantly increased in any dose group, and it was judged to be not carcinogenic (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). From the above, it was judged to be not carcinogenic in two animal species of rats and mice, but both were List 2 data. Therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible," not as "Not classified." | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | In a two-generation breeding test by diet administration to rats (GLP-compliant), reduced weight gain and decreased food consumption were observed in parent animals, but no fertility effects occurred (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). And in a developmental toxicity test by oral administration to rats during the organogenesis period (GLP-compliant), no fetotoxicity or teratogenicity was found at the doses that caused maternal toxicity (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)), and also in a developmental toxicity test by oral administration to rabbits during the organogenesis period (GLP-compliant), no effects were seen in maternal animals or fetuses at up to 2,000 mg/kg/day (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). From the above, because no adverse effects on sexual function, fertility, or the development of offspring were shown, it was judged not to have reproductive toxicity, but all were List 2 data. Therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible," not as "Not classified." | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 2 (central nervous system) |
Warning |
H371 | P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P405 P501 |
In an acute oral toxicity test with rats (GLP), deaths and bite wounds by self-biting in the forelimb, hindlimb, chest, and abdomen were observed in both males and females at or above 500 mg/kg (corresponding to the guidance values for Category 2). Because bleeding from the injured sites was considered to be the cause of death, protective devices for self-biting were installed, then no deaths were seen even at 5,000 mg/kg (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). Stereotypical behavior including self-biting behavior and increased motor activity were found after the administration of high doses to rats and mice, the involvement of the dopaminergic nervous system was considered as the mechanism of inducing self-biting behavior, and it was suggested that self-biting behavior might occur as one of stereotypical behavior by activating the catecholaminergic nervous system in the brain (Evaluation of effect for the food safety (Food Safety Commission, 2011)). It was classified in Category 2 (central nervous system) based on the above knowledge. Besides, self-biting behavior was also found after inhalation exposure (dust) in rats at doses equivalent to Category 2, but it was not reported in dermal administration (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 2 (nervous system) |
Warning |
H373 | P260 P314 P501 |
In a 90-day diet administration test with rats, excitatory nervous symptoms and behavioral changes were observed in males in the 1,800 ppm dose group (132 mg/kg/day) and females in the groups at or above 300 ppm (24.4 mg/kg/day) (Evaluation of effect for the food safety (Food Safety Commission, 2011)), and it is reported that in a 6-month diet administration test with rats, neurological signs suggesting self-attacking such as biting fingers and wandering in the cage were found in the groups at or above 3,000 ppm (67-78 mg/kg/day) (Evaluation of effect for the food safety (Food Safety Commission, 2011)). Because doses that caused symptoms included the guidance value range for Category 2, it was classified in Category 2 (nervous system). Besides, variations in blood biochemical parameters reported in 13-week diet administration tests with rats and mice (GLP) were not used for the rationale for classification because no changes that histopathologically support these were seen in either test (A pesticide abstract and evaluation report (Food and Agricultural Materials Inspection Center, 2007)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
