There is a result of "severe irritation" in a rabbit test (PATTY (5th, 2001)) and a report that severe corneal damage to obscure iritic examination, and conjunctival erythema, chemosis, and discharge were observed at 24, 48, and 72-hour post-instillation into the conjunctival sac of rabbits with no apparent remission occurring throughout 7-day observation period (HSDB (2003)). The substance has a pH 11.5 (9.7 g/L) (GESTIS (access on Aug. 2009)) and is classified as corrosive for the skin. Based on above information, the substance was classified into Category 1.

In a rat acute oral toxicity test there are reports that lethargy and mortality were observed at 215 or 464 mg/kg and higher dose levels which are within the guidance value range for Category 1 or Category 2, respectively, (HSDB (2003)). In a rat acute inhalation test, observed depression persisted up to 24-hour post-exposure following exposure at 6.3 mg/L/1h (3.2 mg/L/4h). The exposure level is within the guidance value range for Category 1, (HSDB (2003)). Additionally, there is a report of CNS depression as toxicity of the substance (DHP (13th, 2002)). Although above information correspond to Category 1 (central nervous system), it was classified into Category 2 (central nervous system) because of information in List 2. Additional reports report that exposure to vapours produced respiratory tract irritation in rats (HSDB (2003)) and that mucous membrane irritation and chest discomfort occur during human exposure (PATTY (5th, 2001)). Therefore, the substance was classified into Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - Although it is reported that repeated inhalation exposure in rats (vapour, 7 hr * 50 exposures) at 200 ppm (0.8 mg/L) produced changes in liver and kidney weights, reduced growth, and death (HSDB (2003)), classification was not possible due to lack of other test data.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available.

Classified into Category 2 from its 96h-LC50 = 7 mg/L for fish (Goldfish) (pH = 9.4) (AQUIRE, 2010).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 2 - H411: 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 2 since its acute toxicity is Category 2 and adequate data on rapid degradation are not available.
