---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 4 |
Warning |
H302 | P301+P312 P264 P270 P330 P501 |
Since its LD50 = 500 mg/kg for rats (HSDB (2003)), the substance was classified into Category 4. | FY2008 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (Sep, 2008) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible |

7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | It is reported that administration to mice on the ninth day of gestation induced increase of skeletal abnormalities (Teratogenic (12th, 2007)) and intravenous administration to persons on 27 - 29 weeks of gestation caused cardiovascular (circulatory) developmental abnormalities (RTECS (2008) vol. 82, 1055, 1996). However, since these documents lack detailed information, classification is not possible. | FY2008 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (Sep, 2008) |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system) |
Danger |
H370 | P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P321 P405 P501 |
It is known that in humans, the substance induces muscle weakness and changes in viewing field (RTECS (2008)), and at the dose of human oral poisoning (5 - 10 mg, adult), the substance causes such symptoms as transient delirium, excitement, hallucination, manic state, fever, headache, dizziness, ataxia, myasthenia, muscle rigidity, paralysis, tachycardia, blood pressure reduction, tachypnea, pupillary enlargement, ocular pressure elevation, visual disorder, pollakiuria, ischuria, respiratory depression, coma, and bullar paralysis, and as the mechanism, in effectors of cholinergic fibers, the substance competes for receptors against acetylcholine, a signaling substrate, and blocks the effects (Information Files of Acute Poisoning, 2nd edition (1994), Hirokawa Shoten Ltd.). Thus, the substance was classified into Category 1 (central nervous system). | FY2008 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (Sep, 2008) |
