1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not classified (Not applicable) |
- |
- | - | Due to the fact that the substance is "solid" according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its gas is not expected. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |

2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Insufficient data available Most of the epidemiological studies and tests with chromium (III) gave negative results (EHC 61 (1988), ATSDR (2000), PATTY (4th, 2000)), though no data are available on the evaluation of chromium carbonate per se. |

Chromium is classified into "Respiratory Sensitizing Substance" by the ad hoc committee of the Japanese Society of Occupational Allergy, and "Respiratory Sensitizing Substance: Group 2"* by the Japan Society for Occupational Health. These classifications, though not specifying chromium carbonate, seem to include chromium compounds. Chromium carbonate, which is a chromium compound, should thus cause respiratory sensitization. * There is a provision to the effect that "the category refers to the substance concerned and its compounds, but does not identify all substances causing respiratory/skin sensitization. |
