H317 | P302+P352 P333+P313 P362+P364 P261 P272 P280 P321 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] It was classified in Category 1 from (1). [Evidence Data] (1) This substance was reported to cause allergic contact eczema of the hands and arms in humans, which was subsequently verified by patch testing in humans. Cross-reactions to structurally-related azo dyes and other related compounds were also reported (AICIS (formerly, NICNAS) IMAP (2014)). [Reference Data, etc.] (2) A skin sensitization test with guinea pigs on this substance (open epicutaneous test, 10 applications of 2%/petrolatum) was conducted, and erosive and exudative reactions were observed, but no conclusion was reached (MAK (DFG) (2013), AICIS (formerly, NICNAS) IMAP (2014)). (3) It was classified in Skin Sens. 1 (H317) in EU-CLP classification (EU CLP classification (Access on August 2020)). |

5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Category 2 |
Warning |
H341 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] It was classified in Category 2 from (1), (2). By reviewing information sources, the classification result was changed. Besides, a positive result in a specific locus test with mice described in the previous classification was presumed to be a positive result in a mouse lymphoma TK test. [Evidence Data] (1) As for in vivo, it was reported to be positive in a micronucleus test by intraperitoneal administration to mice, negative in a micronucleus test after intraperitoneal administration to rats, positive in unscheduled DNA synthesis tests after gavage administration to mice or rats, positive in a sister chromatid exchange test after intraperitoneal administration to mice, positive in a gene mutation test in lacZ transgenic mice, and positive in comet assays in mice (intraperitoneal administration: stomach, colon, liver, urinary bladder, lung, brain), (gavage administration: colon, liver, lung) (MAK (DFG) (2013), AICIS (formerly, NICNAS) IMAP (2014)). (2) As for in vitro, it was reported to be positive in a bacterial reverse mutation test, and it was reported in test systems using cultured mammalian cells that it was positive in a sister chromatid exchange test and negative in a chromosomal aberration test (MAK (DFG) (2013), AICIS (formerly, NICNAS) IMAP (2014)). |

6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 1B |
Danger |
H350 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] From (1), (2), IARC classified it in Group 2B, but tumor formation was observed at several tissue sites in several species of experimental animals, and based on the latest classification results by other organizations, it was classified in Category 1B. An investigation was conducted using new information sources, and the classification result was changed. [Evidence Data] (1) As for classification results by domestic and international organizations, it was classified in Group 2B by IARC (IARC Sup7 (1987)), Group 2B by the Japan Society for Occupational Health (JSOH) (Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits (Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH)) (proposed in 1991)), R by NTP (NTP RoC (14th, 2016)), 2 in MAK (DFG) (MAK (DFG) (2013)), and Carc.1B in EU CLP classification (EU CLP classification (Access on May 2020)). (2) This substance caused tumors in several species of experimental animals at several different tissue sites. Dietary administration of this substance caused hepatocellular adenoma or carcinoma in male and female mice, adenoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangioma, or other carcinoma in male rats, hepatocellular adenoma or carcinoma in male and female hamsters, hepatocellular adenoma or carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or cholangioma in dogs, and lung tumors and benign blood-vessel tumors (hemangioendothelioma in the lung) in male and female mice. In addition, papillary or transitional cell carcinoma in the urinary bladder was observed in hamsters of both sexes, and urinary bladder cancer in dogs, gallbladder tumors (papilloma or carcinoma) in female hamsters, adenocarcinoma in dogs, and mammary gland cancer (adenocarcinoma) in female hamsters were found (NTP RoC (14th, 2016)). |

8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | [Rationale for the Classification] Classification was not possible due to lack of data. [Reference Data, etc.] (1) There was information that this substance might cause irritative effects to the respiratory organs (GESTIS (Access on May 2020)). (2) Due to reductive cleavage products of this substance generated in vivo, impaired oxygen transport functions of the blood due to methemoglobin formation and damage of the erythrocytes and, moreover, direct irritations of the efferent urinary tract and dysfunctions/damage of the kidneys were expected (GESTIS (Access on May 2020)). |
