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 values of 8280 mg/kg and > 5000 mg/kg (BUA Report 253 (2004)), the substance was classified as "Not classified". |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on the rabbit LD50 value of > 5000 mg/kg (BUA Report 253 (2004)), the substance was classified as "Not classified". |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid (GHS definition) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data were available. Although the data that 8-hour exposure to the substance-rich atmosphere caused no mortality (0/12) was reported (BUA Report 253 (2004)), the exposure concentration was uncertain. Therefore, the classification was not possible. |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 | Warning | H315: Causes skin irritation |
P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.

In the rabbit study, which test substance was applied to the auricle or the back for 20 hours, severe erythema and slight to severe edema were observed, and diffuse desquamation and superficial incrustation remained after 8 days of application. The substance was concluded as slight to moderate irritant (BUA Report 253 (2004)). Based on the document, the substance was classified as Category 2. | |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2A | Warning | H319: Causes serious 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. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. |
Administration of 50 microL of the substance to conjunctival sac caused slight to moderate reddening, slight swelling, and slight corneal opacity. The corneal opacity was reversible within 7 days, but slight reddening of conjunctiva still remained at the end of the 8-day observation period. And one animal caused slight retractions on the eyelid rim (BUA Report 253 (2004)). The substance was classified as Category 2A based on the result of "slight to moderate irritation" in the test mentioned above. | |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | In the maximization test on 32 subjects, the substance was not sensitizing (BUA Report 253 (2004)). However, since it was the datum from the "List 2" information source designated in the GHS classification guidance for the Japanese government, the substance was classified as "Classification not possible". |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | The classification was not possible due to lack of in vivo test data. As relevant information, as for in vitro studies, negative results in the Ames test, the gene mutation test using Chinese hamster V79 cells and the chromosome aberration test using Chinese hamster V79 cells were reported (BUA Report 253 (2004)). |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |

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 ... |
In the acute oral toxicity study in rats, a narcotic state with absence of pain and corneal reflexes was reported as clinical signs (BUA Report 253 (2004)). In another acute oral toxicity study in rats, lethargy was found with no mortalities at 5000 mg/kg (BUA Report 253 (2004)). Based on the information, the substance was classified as Category 3 (narcotic effects). | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |

11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) | Category 3 | - | - | H402: Harmful to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Classified into Category 3 from its 72h-EC50 = 15.1 mg/L for algae (Desmodesmus subspicatus) (BUA 253, 2004). |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) | Category 3 | - | - | H412: Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Classified into Category 3 since its acute toxicity is Category 3 and it is not rapidly degradable (BIOWIN). |
12 | Hazardous to the ozone layer | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | This substance is not listed in Annexes to the Montreal Protocol. |
