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)	Category 3	Danger	H301	P301+P310 P264 P270 P321 P330 P405 P501	Both of 2 LD50 values for rats (195 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg) (EHC 211 (1999)) correspond to Category 3. Besides, it is classified in T; R25 in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on July. 2011)).	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	It is a solid at normal temperatures. (Merck (14th, 2006))	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Not classified	- -	-	-	Because a skin irritation test using rabbits (US Federal Register 1973 Skin Test) resulted in "mild irritant" from a primary irritation index of 1.3 (EHC 211 (1999)), it was classified as "Not classified" in JIS classification (Category 3 in UN GHS classification).	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Category 2	Warning	H319	P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 P280	There are no data on this substance. But there is the information that a soluble platinum compound is corrosive to eyes (Netherlands evaluation document (2008), corresponding to List 2). Confirmation of corrosive for "Trans-[PtCl2(NH3)2]" and "(NH4)2[PtCl4]" was described. (EHC 211 (1999)). It is classified in Category 2 from Xi; R41 in EU classification.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
4	Respiratory sensitization	Category 1A	Danger	H334	P304+P340 P342+P311 P261 P284 P501	Platinum itself or its compound is designated as a sensitizing substance (respiratory tract; Group 1) by Japan Society for Occupational Health (Journal of Occupational Health, Vol.52 (2010)). Three out of 6 refinery workers sensitized to this substance elicited positive prick test reactions. (ECETOC TR77 (1999)) Fifteen out of 107 workers with a history of platinum-related health problems exhibited positive prick tests to this substance. (ECETOC TR77 (1999)) In addition, it was concluded that high frequent reports indicating respiratory hypersensitivity in humans such as asthma reactions to sensitized humans in an inhalation test to a mixture containing this substance (EHC 211 (1999)) are evidence that this substance is a respiratory sensitizer (ECETOC TR77 (1999)), therefore, it was classified in Category 1A. Besides, it is classified in R42/43 in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on July 2011)).	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
4	Skin sensitization	Category 1A	Warning	H317	P302+P352 P333+P313 P362+P364 P261 P272 P280 P321 P501	Platinum itself or its compound is designated as a sensitizing substance (skin; Group 1) by Japan Society for Occupational Health (Journal of Occupational Health, Vol.52 (2010)). Because it was concluded that it is a sensitizer from the limited data in animals in which popliteal lymph node test in mice using this substance showed enhanced activity by a challenge and resulted in a weak positive (ECETOC TR77 (1999)). it was classified in Category 1A. Besides, this substance is classified in R42/43 in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on July 2011)).	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	The classification is not possible due to no in vivo test data. Besides, a positive in an Ames test was reported as an in vitro test. (Netherlands evaluation document (2008), KemI-Riskline (1997), corresponding to List 2)	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Lack of data. Besides, irritation to eyes and respiratory tract during exposure to this substance was reported in a Russian literature without details on exposure duration, animal species, or test methods. (KemI-Riskline (1997))	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data.	FY2011	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （July, 2010）
