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	- -	-	-	Based on an LD50 value for rats of 5,000 mg/kg (RTECS (Access on August 2015) original article: Robert B. Burrows "Human and Veterinary Anthelmintics" (1965-71), Progress in Drug Research, Vol. 17, (1973), 118), it was classified as "Not classified."	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	Solid (GHS definition)	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	Solid (GHS definition)	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Category 2	Warning	H319	P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 P280	There is a description that as a result of application of this substance (4-8 mg) to the conjunctival sac of rabbits for 10 minutes, damage to the eyes was observed, but there is no description on reversibility (HSDB (Access on August 2015)). From the above, it was classified in Category 2.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	According to the GHS classification guidance for the Japanese government, it was classified as "Classification not possible." As for in vivo, a micronucleus test with rat bone marrow cells by oral administration was negative (NTP DB (Access on August 2015)). As for in vitro, a bacterial reverse mutation test, a mouse lymphoma test and a chromosomal aberration test with mammalian cultured cells were negative or positive findings, and a sister chromatid exchange test with mammalian cultured cells was negative (IARC 99 (2010)).	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
6	Carcinogenicity	Category 2	Warning	H351	P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501	As for humans, in the manufacturing process of magenta, an excess bladder cancer risk due to combined exposure including that to magenta (this substance (Basic Red 9 (Magenta 0)) is the representative substance among the four magenta dye compounds (Magenta 0, I, II, III)) was suggested, but it was evaluated as insufficient evidence of carcinogenicity by exposure to this substance alone (IARC 100F (2012)). As for experimental animals, in 2-year carcinogenicity studies with rats or mice dosed by the oral route (feeding), in rats, increases in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (males), adenoma and carcinoma of the thyroid follicular epithelium (males) and their total (females), carcinoma of the Zymbal gland (females and males), subcutaneous fibroma (females and males), squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (males), and trichoepitheliomas of the skin (females), etc. were observed, on the other hand, in mice, increases in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (females and males) and adrenal gland pheochromocytomas were shown, and it was concluded that there was sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity (IARC 100F (2012)). As for classification results by other organizations, it was classified in Group 2B by IARC (IARC 100F (2012)), as R by NTP (NTP RoC (13 th, 2014)), in Carc. 1B in the EU CLP classification (ECHA CL Inventory (Access on August 2015)), and in 2B by Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH) (Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits (2015)), corresponding to Category 1B or Category 2 in the GHS classification guidance for the Japanese government. However, because the evidence on which the EU classified it not in Carc. 2 but in 1B is unknown, according to the guidance that gives priority to IARC evaluation, it was classified in Category 2 for this hazard class.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. In a 13-week toxicity test with rats dosed by feeding, goiter and fatty changes in the liver were observed at 4,000 ppm (about 400 mg/kg/day), and thyroid hyperplasia and pituitary basophilic hyperplasia at or above 2,000 ppm (about 200 mg/kg/day) were observed (IARC 57 (1993)). Non-neoplastic toxic changes were not described in a 2-year carcinogenicity study with rats dosed by feeding, at 2,000 ppm (about 158 mg/kg/day) for males and at 1,000 ppm (about 92 mg/kg/day) for females, and in a 2-year carcinogenicity study with mice dosed by feeding at 1,000 ppm (172 mg/kg/day for males and 173 mg/kg/day for females) (NTP TR 285 (1986)). From the above, effects were observed in the range exceeding Category 2 in the oral route, but there was no toxicity information on humans or in other routes, therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible" due to lack of data.

10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2015	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
