1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 4 |
Warning |
H302 | P301+P312 P264 P270 P330 P501 |
There are two LD50 values for rats (1,290 mg/kg (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012), corresponding to List 2)), 2,262 mg/kg (IUCLID (2000))), one corresponds to Category 4, and the other corresponds to "Not classified" in the Classification JIS. Therefore, it was classified in Category 4 by adopting a more hazardous category. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Category 4 |
Warning |
H312 | P302+P352 P362+P364 P280 P312 P321 P501 |
It was classified in Category 4 based on an LD50 value of 1,213 mg/kg for rabbits (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not classified (Not applicable) |
- |
- | - | Liquid (GHS definition) | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | It is reported that mortality was 1/12 when rats were given 8-hour exposure to 5.72 mg/L (vapour: converted 4-hour equivalent value: 8.09 mg/L) (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))), but the category cannot be determined with the data alone. Therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible." | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Not classified |
- |
- | - | After a 20-hour occlusive application of 0.5 mL of undiluted this substance to the skin of two rabbits, erythema was seen in only one animal and fully disappeared within four days, there is no edema in both animals, and the average scores of evaluation at 24, 48, and 72 hours were 0.5 for erythema and 0 for edema (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))). Therefore, it was classified as "Not classified." Besides, it is reported that also in another test with rabbits, the irritation score was minimum 1 on a scale from 1 to 10, and it was not irritating (IUCLID (2000)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2B |
Warning |
H320 | P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 |
After the application of 50 microL of undiluted this substance to the eye of two rabbits, the average scores of evaluation at 24, 48, and 72 hours were 1.3 for the cornea, 0 for the iris, 1.3 for the conjunctiva, and 0 for chemosis, and effects on the cornea and conjunctiva fully disappeared within eight days (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))). From the above, it was classified in Category 2B because the score for the cornea was above 1. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |

- | - | No data available. | FY2012 | 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, as for in vitro tests, a negative result was reported in an Ames test (IUCLID (2000)). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Data are lacking. It is reported that in a test in which two pregnant rats were given 17-day diet administration at a 0.3% concentration, there was no toxicity in maternal animals, fetotoxicity, or teratogenicity (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))), but the test conditions were insufficient due to being a test with only one dose and using the small number (2) of animals, and the details are unknown. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 2 (kidney, urinary bladder, central nervous system) |
Warning |
H371 | P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P405 P501 |
In a test in which rats were orally administered 175, 350, 700 mg/kg, only twice a day, a positive correlation was observed between urinary retention and the doses, and histological examination of the urinary bladder revealed marked submucosal and subserosal edema, severe capillary congestion, petechial hemorrhage, and multifocal perivascular inflammatory Iinfiltrates under the mucous membrane. In a visual and microscopic inspection of the kidney, hydronephrosis indicative of dilatation of the renal pelvis with blunting of the renal papilla was also found (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))). Because the test doses above were within the guidance value range for Category 2, it was classified in Category 2 (kidney, urinary bladder). Furthermore, it was classified in Category 2 (central nervous system) because signs of convulsions (stretch/bend), tremor, tonic-clonic convulsions, apathy, and abdominal/lateral position were seen in an acute toxicity test with rats (doses: 860-3,990 mg/kg) (eChemPortal (ECHA CHEM (2012))). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (urinary bladder, nervous system) |
Danger |
H372 | P260 P264 P270 P314 P501 |
Urinary dysfunction (urinary retention, hesitancy, decreased or intermittent flow, straining, bladder distension, etc.) was reported in workers handling this substance, and it is reported that in a follow-up survey on workers with bladder neuropathy caused by exposure to this substance, neurological abnormalities were observed in three out of 10 affected workers, one of them showed sensory-motor neuropathy, and urologic testing revealed persistent abnormalities in several workers (PATTY 2001). Furthermore, it is reported that sensory peripheral neuropathy was also seen in a few persons due to occupational exposure, and in one plant, a lot of workers showed central nervous system symptoms such as insomnia, irritability, and impaired intellectual function (HSDB (2003)). It was classified in Category 1 (urinary bladder, nervous system) based on the above knowledge in humans. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |

11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment Short term (Acute) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | It was classified as "Not classified" because toxicity values are > 100 mg/L for all of the algae, crustacea, and fish (IUCLID, 2000). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment Long term (Chronic) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | Reliable chronic toxicity data were not obtained. It was classified as "Not classified" because it is not water-insoluble (water solubility: 1000000 mg/L, PHYSPROP Database, 2009), and it corresponds to "Not classified" in acute toxicity for algae, crustacea, and fish (IUCLID, 2000). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
12 | Hazardous to the ozone layer | Classification not possible |
