Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | "Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 |  |
H315 |
P302+P352 P332+P313 P264 P280 P321 P362 |
In addition to the information that this substance is a strong skin irritant (Contact Dermatitis (4th, 2006), corresponding to List 1), on the basis of a description of a powerful irritant and a vesicant (HSDB (2003)), it was classified in Category 2. |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. Besides, there is the information that this substance is a strong irritant and vesicant. (HSDB (2003)) |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Category 1 | |
H317 |
P302+P352 P333+P313 P261 P272 P280 P321 P363 P501 |
Because it is listed as a contact allergy substance in Contact Dermatitis (Frosch) (Contact Dermatitis (4th, 2006)), it was classified in Category 1. Besides, there is the other information that this substance is a strong contact allergen (HSDB (2003)). |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
The classification is not possible due to no in vivo test data. Besides, there is information as in vitro tests that an Ames test reported a positive result (HSDB (2003)), and a test using V79 cells did not observe UDS, SCE, or gene mutation (ouabain and 6-thioguanine) (HSDB (2003)). |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. Besides, there is the information that this substance is a strong irritant and vesicant. (HSDB (2003)) |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
