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)	Not classified	- -	-	-	It was classified into "Not classified" from >12,000 mg/kg which is the latest data among LD50 value >8,000 mg/kg, > 5,400 mg/kg, and >12,000 mg/kg (SIDS (2006)) of the oral administration test employing a rat.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Not classified	- -	-	-	From a description of LD50 value of >5,000 mg/kg (SIDS (2006)) in the dermal administration test employing rabbits, it was classified into "Not classified".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	Since it was a solid by the definition of GHS and inhalation in gas was not assumed, it was classified into "Not applicable".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Saturated vapor pressure level at 20degCis 0.03 ppm. Since it is written in SIDS (2006) that NOEC of the 8-hour inhalation exposure test employing guinea pig is 0.3 mg/m3 (equivalent 0.025 ppm), it is classified according to the gas standard. Therefore, since 4-hour equivalent LC50 value is >0.025 ppm, and the classification cannot be specified, classification is not possible.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Although it has been described that moderate to severe irritation (SIDS (2006)) was determined in the skin irritation test with rabbits, the result was obtained by 24-hour dose. Moreover, although it has been described that no serious skin reaction (SIDS (2006)) was not triggered in the 48-hour dose study in human (27 volunteers), the tested concentration was 10%. As mentioned above, classification is not possible with no appropriate data.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Category 2B	- Warning	H320	P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264	There is a description that although mild redness and turbidity are seen 1 hour 24-hour after medication and they recovers in eight days in the eye irritation test employing rabbits and it is "slightly irritating", the dose is 0.05 mL which is smaller compared with current 0.1 mL of OECD TG 405 (SIDS (2006)). Although the recovery required 7 days or more, the symptom was thought to be mild and it was classified into Category 2B.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification is not possible since there is no data.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
4	Skin sensitization	Not classified	- -	-	-	Although the result of the Maximization tests employing 30 guinea pig (OECD TG 406, GLP) was ambiguous, it was classified into "Not classified" since it was estimated as not sensitizing (SIDS (2006)) and was also not sensitizing (SIDS (2006)) in the Maximization test in 27 humans.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Not classified	- -	-	-	Since it was negative (SIDS (2004)) in the body cell in vivo mutagenicity test (micronucleus test employing the bone marrow cell of the mouse (OECD TG 474, GLP)), it was classified into "Not classified".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Since no evaluation by major international evaluation agencies is made and there is no data, classification is not possible.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
7	Reproductive toxicity	Category 2	Warning	H361	P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501	In the first generation reproductive toxicity study (OECD TG 415, GLP) via oral administration for 98 days using rats increase in the pre-mating time, decrease in fertilizing capacities, conception rates and the number of birth were observed and decrease of the body weight during the nursing period was observed among mother animals with 1,000mg/kg (recovering after the completion of the nursing period) (SIDS (2006)). At the same time, based on the description that decrease in the number of birth and body weight among baby animals during the nursing period was found (SIDS (2006)) as the fetal toxicity effect with 1,000mg/kg in the first generation reproductive toxicity study (OECD TG 415, GLP) via oral administration for 10 weeks using rats, it was classified in Category 2.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	It has been described that although initial escape attempts were observed in the inhalation exposure test employing rats, there was no abnormality in the dissection during 8 hours exposure and after exposure (SIDS (2006)). Since the test concentration is unknown and there is no other data, classification is not possible.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Not classified	- -	-	-	As a result of testing by the dosage out of the range of the guidance value of Category 2 in 28-day oral administration test in rats (OECD TG 407,GLP), effects were found only on increase in liver, kidney, and lien weight (SIDS (2006)), therefore, it was classified into "Not classified".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification is not possible because there is no data. In addition, the kinematic viscosity at 20degC is 86.03 mm2/s.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
