HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Category 5 - Warning H303: May be harmful if swallowed P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. SPECIES: Rat ENDPOINT: LD50 VALUE: 2620 mg/kg REFERENCE SOURCE: ACGIH (7th, 2001)
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified - - - - Based on rabbit LD50 value: >5000mg/kg (ACGIH 7th, 2001), it was set as the outside of Category.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
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 - - - - From description that irritation was not acknowledged by exposure for 24 hours in the test using the rabbit on ACGIH (7th, 2001), it was carried out the outside of Category.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Not classified - - - - Based on the description that it did not show irritant property in the test applied to the eyes of the rabbits (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), we classified it as Out Of Category .
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - There was description that based on the result of the patch test for humans, it is thought that there was no sensitizing in ACGIH (7th, 2001), however, sensitizing property was not negated clearly and there was also no animal test data, therefore we presupposed that we could not classify since data is insufficient for considering it to be Out Of Category.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Not classified - - - - Since there is a negative result (ACGIH 7th, 2001) by the chromosome aberration test using the rat marrow cells which are the in vivo mutagenicity tests using a somatic, it carried out the outside of Category.
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - Although there is description that teratogenic and fetus toxicity were not observed in the oral administration study using the pregnancy rat (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), since in this study, the general toxicity in parent animals is not observed, it was not sufficient data to be as out of Category. So it cannot be classified due to insufficient data.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) Warning H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation) P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.
P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Although there are no specific case reports, the substance was classified as Category 3 (airway irritant) because of the report that it caused irritation to nose and throat (ACGIH (7th, 2001)).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (liver, urinary bladder, ovaria, blood) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (liver, urinary bladder, ovaria, blood) 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 ...
We classified it into Category 2 (liver, a bladder, ovary, blood) based on the description that in the feeding oral administration tests during 90 days using the rat, the influence on the liver, a bladder, the ovary, and blood was observed with the dosage of the guidance value range of Category 2 (ACGIH (7th, 2001)).
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 48-hour LC50=0.26mg/L of Crustacea (Daphnia magna) (ECETOC TR91, 2003).
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 ...
Classified into Category 1, since acute toxicity is Category 1,not rapidly degrading (BOD of di-n-butyl phosphate: 2% (existing chemical substances safety inspections data)), and bioaccumulative (log Kow=4.27 (PHYSPROP Database, 2005)).
