---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | It was set as the outside of Category from two descriptions. One is that rat LD50 value of jet propulsion fuel (JP-5) of IARC 45 (1989) was >48000mg/kg, and the other is that death was not observed in 5000mg/kg in the GLP tests in which straight run kerosene of IUCLID (2000) was orally administered to rats. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | It was set as the outside of Category from the description : in GLP tests of dermally administered to rabbits, death was not observed at 2000mg/kg of straight run kerosene (IUCLID (2000)). | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not classified (Not applicable) |
- |
- | - | Liquid (GHS definition) | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | From description that death was not acknowledged by 5.28mg/L in the GLP tests which done inhalation exposure of straight run kerosene to rats (IUCLID (2000)), it was set as the outside of Category. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 |
Warning |
H315 | P302+P352 P332+P313 P362+P364 P264 P280 P321 |
It was set as Category 2 from description that irritation was acknowledged by the cutaneous contact by the humans (EHC (20, 1982), ACGIH (7th, 2001), PATTY (4th, 1994), IARC (45, 1989)). | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Not classified |
- |
- | - | There is the description that the eye is not stimulated (PATTY (4th, 1994)), and the description that in Draize test (GLP tests) using the rabbit , irritation was not acknowledged (IUCLID (2000)). So it was set as the outside of Category. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Although there was description that sensitizing property was not acknowledged for Buehler test (GLP test) using the guinea pigs in IUCLID (2000), we presupposed that it could not be classified since the lack of data which negates sensitizing clearly in Priority1. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Not classified |
- |
- | - | [special note] There is a positive result for jet fuel A with the chromosome aberration test on rat marrow cells which is an in vivo mutagenicity test using somatic cells (IARC 45, 1989), however, there are negative results for kerosine (ACGIH 7th, 2001, IARC 45, 1989, IUCLID, 2000). Since a negative result for diesel No.1 with micronucleus examination on mouse bone marrow (ACGIH 7th, 2001) and negative result for kerosene and jet fuel with dominant lethal test on rodents (ACGIH 7th, 2001) were also found. So it was classified as out of Category. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 2 |
Warning |
H351 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
[special notes] Since although Jet fuel (kerosene, 8008-20-6) and Distillate(light) fuel oils are classified into the group 3 in IARC 45 (1989). But kerosene/Jet fuels were classified into A3 in ACGIH (2001). So it was considered as Category 2 based on the segment of ACGIH which is latest assessment. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | There is a description that reproductive toxicity was not observed in the pregnant rat administration test (ACGIH (7th, 2001), IARC (45, 1989), and NTP (TR 310, 1986)), but since there is no statements about impact on parent animals, it is unable to judge whether a dose (under saturated concentration calculable from vapor pressures) is appropriate. Therefore, it is unclassifiable due to insufficient date. |

8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation, narcotic effects) |
Warning |
H335 H336 |
P304+P340 P403+P233 P261 P271 P312 P405 P501 |
Description that central-nerves control, giddiness, etc. were admitted in humans evidence of exposure of ACGIH (7th, 2001), PATTY (4th, 1994), and IARC 45 (1989), and from description that respiratory irritant was admitted by the inhalation exposure test using the mouse of ACGIH (7th, 2001), it was thought that an anesthesia action and respiratory irritant were indicated, and was set as Category 3. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
10 | Aspiration hazard | Category 1 |
Danger |
H304 | P301+P310 P331 P405 P501 |
Category 1 because of "possible to cause chemical pneumonia by misswallowing of the liquid."(ACGIH, 7th, 2001; EHC 20, 1982) | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
