Based on its rat LD50 of 152 mg/kg (RTECS (1998); original literature: NTIS OTS0570977), the substance was classified into Category 3. In addition, it is rated as R22 in the EU classification (equivalent to Category 3 or 4) (EU-Annex 1 (accessed in January 2009)).
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Solid (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 Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available. It is rated as R43 in the EU classification (equivalent to Category 1) (EU-Annex 1 (accessed in January 2009)).
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - In oral administration tests using rats (RTECS (1998)), lethargy, acute pulmonary edema or bleeding were observed; while in the tests (administration routes unknown) using rats or mice, motor ataxia, muscular atrophy or spasticity were detected (RTECS (1998)). However, detailed explanations were not available in each study. Thus, the substance was classified into "Classification not possible" due to insufficient data available.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - In the tests (administration routes unknown) using rats, some effects on total protein, bilirubin, cholesterol, erythrocytes and enzymes in blood serum were documented (RTECS (1998)). However, since detailed explanations were not available, the substance was classified into "Classification not possible".
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
