1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Category 4	Warning	H332	P304+P340 P261 P271 P312	Based on a LC50 value of 1.92 mg/L (4h) for rats (IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified into Category 4. Since the LC50 value was higher than the saturated vapour pressure concentration (4.3E-05 mg/L), the classification criteria for mist was adopted.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Not classified	- -	-	-	Based on a result of "slightly irritating" in a rabbit test (OECD TG404) (IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified as "Not classified".	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Not classified	- -	-	-	Based on results of "little irritative" or "not irritating" in a rabbit Draize tests (OECD TG405) (IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified as "Not classified".	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Although there is a report of "not sensitizing" in a guinea pig test (IUCLID (2000)), classification was not possible since the details are not clear.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Not classified	- -	-	-	Based on a negative result in an intraperitoneal mouse bone marrow micronucleus test (OECD TG474 (GLP)) (in vivo somatic cell mutagenicity tests) (IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified as "Not classified".

6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	There is a report for a developmental toxicity test by oral administration in rats during the organogenesis period (days 6 - 15 of gestation) in which maternal effects such as decrease in food consumption were observed. There were no teratogenic or embryotoxic effects (IUCLID (2000)). Classification was not possible due to lack of data for sexual function and fertility of parental animals.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）

Although these dose levels correspond to Category 1, the substance was classified into Category 2 (blood system) because of information in List 2.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2009	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （March, 2009）

This GHS classification was conducted based on the information sources and the guidance for classification and judgement which are described in the GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government etc. Using other literature, test results etc. as evidence and including different content from this classification result in a label or SDS are allowed.
Hazard statement and precautionary statement will show by hovering the mouse cursor over a code in the column of "Hazard statement" and "Precautionary statement," respectively. In the excel file, both the codes and statements are provided.
A blank or "-" in the column of "Classification" denotes that a classification for the hazard class was not conducted in the year.
An asterisk “*” in the column of “Classification” denotes that “Not classified (or No applicable)” and/or “Classification not possible” is applicable. Details are described in the column of “Rationale for the classification”. If no English translation is available for “Rationale for the classification,” please refer to the Japanese version of the results.
