| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on a LD50 value of >7000 mg/kg for rats (IARC vol. 50 (1990)), the substance was classified into "Not classified". |
| 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 | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. As relevant information, there is a report of "mild" irritating by application of 500 mg/24h in a rabbit Standard Draize test (RTECS (2002)). |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on a negative result in an in vivo mouse somatic cell (bone marrow and peripheral blood) micronucleus test (NTP DB (access on Oct. 2009)), the substance was classified as "Not classified". As relevant information, from in vitro mutagenicity tests, there are reports of negative and positive bacteria mutation tests (NTP DB (access on Oct. 2009), IARC vol. 50 (1990)), a positive hamster ovary cell chromosomal aberration test (NTP DB (access on Oct. 2009)), and a positive human peripheral lymphocytes chromosomal aberration test (IARC vol. 50 (1990)). |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 2 |
|
Warning | H351: Suspected of causing cancer |
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 classification of "Group 2B" in IARC (IARC vol. 50 (1990)) and classification of "R" in NTP (NTP RoC 11th (2004)), the substance was classified into Category 2. Hepatocellular adenomas were found in a mouse oral administration test (200 mg/kg, for 540 days) and tumours of the large intestine were found in a rat oral administration test (10000 mg/kg for 16-month) (IARC vol. 50 (1990)). However, there are reports that no skin tumour was found in a mouse skin application test and that the difference in intestinal tumour incidence between treated group and control group was not significant in rat oral administration test (maximum dietary level of 2400 mg/kg) (IARC vol. 50 (1990)). |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. As relevant information, there is a report that the substance is non-teratogenic based on the records of pregnant women treated by this drug (Birth Defects (3rd, 2000)), however, details are unclear. |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | There is a report that rats administered orally (90-day equivalence 3.3 mg/kg/day, dose for 26 weeks) showed enlarged lymph nodes in the mesocolon and pigment deposition in the cortical region of the kidney (IARC vol. 50 (1990)). However, the details are unclear and other sufficient information are not available, therefore, classification was not possible due to lack of data. |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 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 ... |
Classified into Category 1 from its 48h-EC50 = 0.192 mg/L for Crustacea (Daphnia magna) (AQUIRE, 2010). |
| 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 its acute toxicity is Category 1 and it is not rapidly degradable (BIOWIN). |
