1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Not classified	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] It was classified as "Not classified" from (1). [Evidence Data] (1) LD50 for rats: > 5,000 mg/kg (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991))	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Solid (GHS definition). It was classified as "Not classified."	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data. There was information of (1), but because exposure time was unknown, the classification was not possible. Besides, because an exposure concentration was higher than the saturated vapor pressure concentration (7.8E-006 mg/L), a reference value in the unit of mg/L was applied as dust. [Reference Data, etc.] (1) LC50 for rats (exposure time: unknown): > 0.28 mg/L (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991)) (2) Vapor pressure of this substance: 3.6E-007 mmHg (25 deg C) (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991)) (converted value for the saturated vapor pressure concentration: 7.8E-006 mg/L)	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Not classified	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] It was classified as "Not classified" from (1). [Evidence Data] (1) In a skin irritation test with rabbits, no irritation was observed (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991)).	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] There was a description of (1), but the classification was not possible. Because data in the previous classification could not be confirmed, and details such as scores were unknown, the classification result was changed. [Reference Data, etc.] (1) In an eye irritation test with rabbits, no changes in the cornea or iris were seen, and slight erythema, edema, and discharge in the conjunctiva were observed but disappeared 48 hours after application (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991)).	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data. Because the rationale data for the previous classification could not be confirmed, the classification result was changed.	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data. Because Agricultural Chemical Registration Data used in the previous classification could not be obtained, the classification result was changed based on the newly obtained information. [Evidence Data] (1) As for in vitro, a negative result was obtained in a bacterial reverse mutation test (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991)).	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
6	Carcinogenicity	Not classified	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] There were no classification results by domestic and international organizations. There were no available reports in humans. From (1), it was classified as "Not classified." [Evidence Data] (1) In carcinogenicity tests by diet administration of this substance to male and female rats for 104 weeks and male and female mice for 104-106 weeks, no treatment-related neoplastic lesions were observed in either species (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1991)).	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
7	Reproductive toxicity	Not classified	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) and (2), it was classified as "Not classified." [Evidence Data] (1) In a two-generation reproductive study with rats dosed by feeding, hepatocellular swelling was observed as parental toxicity in F2-generation males, but no effect on fertility was observed, and no effect on development of offspring was observed either (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1988)). (2) In a teratogenicity test with female rats dosed by gavage on days 6 to 15 of gestation, a decrease in fetal weight and a decrease in ossification were observed at doses at which maternal toxicity (reduced body weight gain) was observed, but no teratogenicity was observed (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1988)).	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	[Rationale for the Classification] Classification was not possible due to lack of data. Since the information source used in the previous classification was currently unavailable, and the information on this substance could not be obtained from a new information source either, the classification result was changed from the previous classification.	FY2020	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2019 revised edition (Ver. 2.0))
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Category 1 (liver)	Danger	H372	P260 P264 P270 P314 P501	[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1), it was classified in Category 1 (liver). Since the evidence data for the previous classification was currently unavailable and could not be confirmed, the classification result was changed from the previous classification as a result of a review based on available information. [Evidence Data] (1) As a result of a chronic toxicity/carcinogenicity study with rats, bile duct proliferation and bile duct fibrosis in females at 30 ppm (1.5 mg/kg/day, within the range for Category 1), a decrease in leukocyte count and decrease in LDH in males, and a decrease in creatinine in females at or above 300 ppm (15 mg/kg/day, within the range for Category 2), and ocular cloudiness (keratitis due to adhesion of the test substance in powder feed), a decreasing tendency of food and water consumption, reduced body weight gain, a decrease in platelet count, and a decrease in AST in males and females at 1,000 ppm (50 mg/kg/day, within the range for Category 2) were observed (Japanese Journal of Pesticide Science Vol. 13, No. 1 (Pesticide Science Society of Japan, 1988)).
