4	Skin sensitization	Category 1	Warning	H317	P302+P352 P333+P313 P362+P364 P261 P272 P280 P321 P501	It is reported in HSDB (Access on October 2013) that allergic dermatitis was induced by wearing stockings for which this substance was used as a dye, and in patch tests with several dyes including this substance in patients with allergic dermatitis, they showed strong reactions to this substance. Furthermore, this substance is classified in "R43" in EU DSD classification and "Skin Sens. 1 H317" in EU CLP classification. Base on the above information, it was classified in Category 1.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. As for in vivo, it was negative in a micronucleus test and a chromosomal aberration test with mouse bone marrow cells but positive in a sister chromatid exchange test (NTP DB (Access on August 2013)). As for in vitro, it was negative in a chromosomal aberration test with cultured mammalian cells but positive in a bacterial reverse mutation test and a mouse lymphoma test (NTP DB (Access on August 2013), IARC 48 (1990)). Therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible" by expert judgment.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Because this substance is classified in Group 3 by IARC (IARC (1990)), it was classified as "Classification not possible."	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is reported that no toxic signs were observed after oral diet administration to rats even at up to 100,000 ppm (corresponding to 5,000 mg/kg) (NTP TR222 (1982)).	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	In 13-week or 2-year feeding tests with rats and mice, effects (non-neoplastic changes) on the thyroid (follicle-cell hyperplasia), spleen (hemosiderosis), kidney (pigment deposition in the tubules), and liver (swelling of the centrilobular hepatocytes, foci of vacuolated cells, foci of eosinophilic cells) were observed at the doses (corresponding to 250-750 mg/kg/day) above the guidance value range for Category 2 (NTP TR222 (1982), IARC 48 (1990)). Therefore, it corresponds to "Not classified" in the oral route. However, because of no toxicity information on the other routes, it was classified as "Classification not possible" due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))

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.
