1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 3 |
Danger |
H301 | P301+P310 P264 P270 P321 P330 P405 P501 |
Category 3 based on SPECIES: Rat; ENDPOINT: LD50;VALUE:approx 50-100 mg/kg; REFERENCE SOURCE: HSDB (Access on May 2005) | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible |

Danger |
H330 | P304+P340 P403+P233 P260 P271 P284 P310 P320 P405 P501 |
Based on rat inhalation LC50 value (30 minutes) = approximately 250ppm (4-hour equivalent: about 88.4ppm) (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), and LC50 (6 hours) value = approximately 25ppm (4-hour equivalent: about 30.6ppm) (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), it was classified as Category 1. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible |

2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 |
Warning |
H315 | P302+P352 P332+P313 P362+P364 P264 P280 P321 |
From description that skin burns (blistering of the skin, hair loss, and scarring) was seen in humans evidence of exposure (HSDB (Access on May 2005)), and description that the skin was stimulated (ICSC (J), (1997), and SITTIG (4th, 2002)), and irritation (erythema-scarring) was accepted with mouse (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), it was set as Category 2. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 1 |
Danger |
H318 | P305+P351+P338 P280 P310 |
There is the description that irreversible corneal opacity was seen with the rabbits(ACGIH (7th, 2001)), and based on the descriptions that causticity (permanent corneal opacification) was shown to the eyes (ICSC (J) (1997) and SITTIG (4th, 2002)). So we classified it as Category 1. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |

5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Category 1B |
Danger |
H340 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
Since there is a positive result by the micronucleus test which uses a mammalian spermatogenic cell (IARC 71 (1999)), it is set as Category 1B. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 2 |
Warning |
H351 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
Since it was classified into 2B in IARC 71 (1999) and in Japan Assoc. of Industrial Health (2005), A3 in ACGIH (7th, 2001), and R in NTP RoC (Access on Dec 2005), it was considered as Category 2. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) |
Warning |
H335 | P304+P340 P403+P233 P261 P271 P312 P405 P501 |
Because of descriptions in ICSC (J) (1997) and SITTIG (4th, 2002) referring to respiratory tracts stimulating, and of a description in (HSFS (2002)) indicating the possibility of respiratory tracts stimulating, and it was judged as Category 3. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Since data was insufficient, we could not classify it. We have the descriptions that liver and kidney may be affected by prolonged exposure (HSFS (2002) and SITTIG (4th, 2002)), however, there was no concrete case reports, results of epidemiological survey or corroborative animal data tested, therefore we could not judge the liver and kidney as target organs. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
