HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Not classified - - - - Based on the rat LD50 (oral route) value of 5,300mg/kg and 6,850mg/kg (CERI Hazard Data 2001-25 (2002)).
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified - - - - Based on the rabbit LD50 (dermal route) value of >7,940mg/kg (CERI Hazard Data 2001-25 (2002)).
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Due to the fact that the substance is "solid" according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its gas is not expected.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Not classified - - - - Based on the description in the report on the rabbit skin irritation tests (CERI Hazard Data 2001-25 (2002)): "24-hour application did not produce any signs of irritation of the skin."
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 2B - Warning H320: Causes eye irritation P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
Based on the description in the report on the rabbit eye irritation tests (CERI Hazard Data 2001-25 (2002)): "Slight irritation observed."
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
4 Skin sensitization Category 1 Warning H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water.
P333+P313: If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P272: Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Based on the classification by the Japanese Society of Contact Dermatitis: "Skin sensitization: positive."
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - Based on the absence of data on in vivo mutagenicity/genotoxicity tests and the absence of positive data on mutagenicity tests in vitro (chromosome aberration tests and mutation tests), described in Report by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (1997), CERI Hazard Data 2001-25 (2002) and PATTY (4th, 2000).
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - Insufficient data available
7 Reproductive toxicity Category 1B Danger H360: May damage fertility or the unborn child P308+P313: IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention.
P201: Obtain special instructions before use.
P202: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood.
P281: Use personal protective equipment as required.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Based on the evidence of adverse effects on development of pups at non-maternally toxic doses, described in CERI Hazard Data 2001-25 (2002) and PATTY (4th, 2000).
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - Insufficient data available
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (kidney) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (kidney) P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Based on the evidence from animal studies including " dose-dependent accumulation of hyaline droplet in the proximal renal tubular epithelium" (Report by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (1997)). The effects on experimental animals were observed at dosing levels within the guidance value ranges for Category 2.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) Category 1 Warning H400: Very toxic to aquatic life P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 1 from 72 hours ErC50=0.15mg/L of the algae (Selenastrum) (MOE Eco-Toxicity Tests of Chemicals, 1996).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 1 Warning H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Although acute toxicity is Category 1 and bio-accumulation is low (BCF=51(Di(benzothiazol-2-yl)persulfide)(Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data, )), since there was no rapidly degrading (the decomposition by BOD: 12%(Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data)), it was classified into Category 1.
