---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 4 |
Warning |
H302 | P301+P312 P264 P270 P330 P501 |
Based on the LD50 value of 438mg/kg calculated from the testing data of rat LD50 (oral route) of 438mg/kg (RTECS (2006)), 500mg/kg and 2,000mg/kg (IUCLID (2000)). | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not classified (Not applicable) |
- |
- | - | Due to the fact that the substance is "solid" according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its gas is not expected. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 |
Warning |
H315 | P302+P352 P332+P313 P362+P364 P264 P280 P321 |
Based on the description in the report on rabbit skin irritation tests (24 hour application) (RTECS (2006)): "Causes moderate irritation." Also based on the description in the report on rabbit skin irritation tests performed in accordance with OECD TG 404 (IUCLID (2000)): "Irritating to the skin." Although the results are not those of 4 hour application, the substance is considered to be a moderate irritant and classified into Category 2. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2A |
Warning |
H319 | P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 P280 |
Based on the description in the report on rabbit eye irritation tests (RTECS (2006)): "24 hour application of 250microg induced severe irritation reactions," "1% solution produced severe irritation." Also based on the description in the report on rabbit eye irritation tests performed in accordance with OECD TG 405 (IUCLID (2000)): "Irritating to the eye." The substance is thus considered a severe eye irritant. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
4 | Skin sensitization | Not classified |
- |
- | - | There is one positive result in the maximization test employing guinea pig. However, it is judged as negative to humans based on two negative results in the same maximization test indicated in OECD SIDS, one negative result in the buehler test, and two negative results in the controlled or large-scale human repetition patch test. Therefore, skin sensitization is corrected from "Category 1" to "Not classified." | FY2007 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006)/Technical Guidance Document on the GHS Classification (6 Dec, 2005) |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to the insufficiency of data (no definite data are available regarding sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate per se). As for linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LAS) and its salts [carbon chain lengths of 10-14 and their mixtures], no data are available on germ cell mutagenicity tests in vivo, whereas multi-generation mutagenicity tests (dominant lethal tests), somatic cell mutagenicity tests in vivo (micronucleus tests, chromosome aberration tests) and Ames assay gave negative results, described in NTP DB (Access on June, 2006), CERI-NITE Hazard Assessment No.5 (2005) and EHC 169 (1996). |

6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible based on expert judgment in the absence of existing classification together with the absence of definite data on sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate per se. CERI-NITE Hazard Assessment No.5 (2005) presents some data regarding carcinogenicity studies on linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LAS) and its salts [carbon chain lengths of 10-14 and their mixtures]. |
FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to the insufficiency of data (no definite data are available regarding sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate per se). As for linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LAS) and its salts [carbon chain lengths of 10-14 and their mixtures], there was no evidence of adverse effects on the parental animals and the offspring observed in oral studies, whereas decreased fertility and increased incidence of malformation in the offspring were observed at doses inducing parental toxicity in dermal studies, described in CERI-NITE Hazard Assessment No.5 (2005) and EHC 169 (1996). |

8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) |
Warning |
H335 | P304+P340 P403+P233 P261 P271 P312 P405 P501 |
Based on the description in ICSC (J) (1997): "Causes respiratory irritation." Note: As for linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LAS) and its salts [carbon chain lengths of 10-14 and their mixtures], "clinical symptoms include confusion, vomiting, pharyngal and oral pains, and the tendency of blood pressure to decrease" (NITE Initial Risk Assessment No.5 (2005)). |

H400 | P273 P391 P501 |
It was classified into Category 1 from 96 hours EC50=0.9mg/L of the blue algae (Microcystis) (EHC169, 1996). | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment Long term (Chronic) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | Since there was rapidly degrading (the decomposition of p-n-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid sodium salt by BOD: 73% (Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data)) and the bio-accumulation was low (log Kow=1.96(PHYSPROP Database, 2005)), it was claasified into Not classified. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
