[Rationale for the Classification] The GLP/TG test in (1) was judged to be reliable, and it was classified in Category 4. Besides, the category was changed from the previous classification by using new information sources. [Evidence Data] (1) LD50 for rats: > 300 - < 2,000 mg/kg (REACH registration dossier (Access on July 2019)) (2) LD50 for rats: 4,696 mg/kg (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances Vol.5, Tentative Hazard Assessment Sheet (Ministry of the Environment, 2006), HSDB (Access on June 2019)) |

[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1), it was classified in Category 4. The category was changed from the previous classification by the use of the new information sources. [Evidence Data] (1) LC50 value for rats (aerosol, 4 hours): 1.8 mg/L (REACH registration dossier (Access on July 2019)) |

[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) and (2), it was classified in Category 1. [Evidence Data] (1) In a skin irritation test (4-hour semiocclusive application) with rabbits compliant with OECD TG 404, the score for erythema at 24/48/72 hours was 4, and it was evaluated as an irreversible reaction (REACH registration dossier (Access on July 2019)). (2) This substance was strongly irritating to the skin of guinea pigs and the conjunctiva of rabbits (HSDB (Access on June 2019)). [Reference Data, etc.] (3) It was classified as "Skin Irrit. 2 (H315)" in the EU CLP classification (EU CLP classification (Access on July 2019)). |

[Rationale for the Classification] Since it was judged to be a skin corrosive substance (Category 1) based on data in (1) and (2), it was classified in Category 1 in accordance with the GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government. [Evidence Data] (1) In a skin irritation test (4-hour semi-occlusive application) with rabbits compliant with OECD TG 404, the mean score at 24/48/72 hours was 4, and it was judged as Category 1 (REACH registration dossier (Access on July 2019)). (2) This substance was strongly irritating to the skin of guinea pigs and the conjunctiva of rabbits (HSDB (Access on June 2019)). [Reference Data, etc.] (3) It was classified as "Eye Irrit. 2 (H319)" in the EU-CLP classification (EU CLP classification (Access on July 2019)). |

[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) and (2), it was classified in Category 1. Besides, the category was changed since new information was obtained. [Evidence Data] (1) It was proved that the allergic reactions that a 36-year-old Japanese man experienced while handling this substance at his working place are caused by this substance (REACH registration dossier (Access on July 2019)). (2) Cases of allergic or cross-allergic reactions were assumed due to experiences available from many alkyl methacrylates, and this substance was also assessed as a skin-sensitizing agent (GESTIS (Access on July 2019)). [Reference Data, etc.] (3) It was classified in Skin Sens. 1 in the EU CLP classification (EU CLP classification (Access on July 2019)). |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | * |
- |
- | - |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) and (2), a positive finding was observed in an in vitro chromosomal aberration test. However, since it was negative in an in vivo micronucleus test, it was classified as "Not classified" in accordance with expert judgment. [Evidence Data] (1) As for in vivo, there is a report on a negative result in a micronucleus test with mice (JECDB (Access on June 2019)). (2) As for in vitro, there is a report on a negative result in a bacterial reverse mutation test and a positive result in a mammalian cell chromosomal aberration test (JECDB (Access on June 2019)). However, as for the result of the chromosomal aberration test, there is also a report that the level of concern for this substance is negligible based on the weight of evidence which also takes into account in silico data, and mutagenicity data for substances with similar structures (Morita et al, Mutat. Res., 741, 32-56, 2012). |

P308+P313
P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1), no general toxicity was observed in maternal animals. However, since a decreased trend in the number of live births and a decreased delivery index were observed, it was classified in Category 1B. [Evidence Data] (1) In a combined repeated dose toxicity study with the reproduction/developmental toxicity screening test (OECD TG 422) with rats dosed by gavage, no abnormalities on general condition, body weight, food consumption and pathological examination were observed in maternal animals. In paternal animals, decreased values of hemoglobin level, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, higher values of urea nitrogen, and higher values of absolute and relative kidney weight were observed. As for reproductive effects, a decreased trend in the number of live births due to prenatal deaths of embryos/fetuses (control group: 172 animals, 500 mg/kg/day group: 104 animals) and a decreased delivery index (control group: 95.0%, 500 mg/kg/day group: 68.8%) were observed (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances Vol.5, Tentative Hazard Assessment Sheet (Ministry of the Environment, 2006), JECDB (Access on June 2019)). |

Warning |
H371 |
P308+P311
P260 P264 P270 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1), it was classified in Category 2 (respiratory organs). By using new information sources, the classification result was changed from the previous classification. [Evidence Data] (1) In a test in which male rats were exposed by inhalation to the aerosol of this substance for 4 hours, nasal discharge was observed at or above 0.4 mg/L, and labored breathing and abnormal breath sounds were observed at or above 1.1 mg/L (equivalent to Category 2). The lethal concentration was 1.8 mg/L, the highest dose (REACH registration dossier (Access on July 2019)). [Reference Data, etc.] (2) Administrating this substance (doses not described) by gastric gavage to rabbits initially suppressed brain electrical activity and then induced clonic-tonic spasms (HSDB (Access on June 2019)). |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | * |
- |
- | - |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1), effects on the kidney were observed within the range of Category 2 in oral administration to rats but these were not accompanied by tissue changes. Therefore, the kidney was not adopted as a target organ. As for oral administration, it was considered as "Not classified." Besides, there was no information on other routes. Therefore, classification was not possible due to lack of data. [Evidence Data] (1) In a study in which this substance was administered at 50-500 mg/kg/day by gavage to male rats from 14 days before mating for 49 days and to female rats from lactation day 3 for 41-54 Days, increased relative kidney weight and increased blood urea nitrogen concentration were observed at or above 150 mg/kg/day (converted guidance value: 68 mg/kg/day, within the range of Category 2), and changes in hematological parameters, increased liver and kidney weights, and increased AST were observed at 500 mg/kg/day (converted guidance value: 228 mg/kg/day, exceeding Category 2) (JECDB (Access on June 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances Vol.5, Tentative Hazard Assessment Sheet (Ministry of the Environment, 2006)). |

11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment Short term (Acute) | Not classified |

- | - | It was classified as "Not classified" from 48-hour EC50 = 362 mg/L for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (Results of Aquatic Toxicity Tests of Chemicals conducted by Environment Agency in Japan (Environment Agency, 1997)). |

If chronic toxicity data are used, then it is classified as "Not classified" due to being rapidly degradable (a degradation rate by BOD: 89, 35, 86% (Biodegradation and Bioconcentration Results of Existing Chemical Substances under the Chemical Substances Control Law, 1994)), and 72-hour NOEC = 3.1 mg/L for algae (Raphidocelis subcapitata) (Results of Aquatic Toxicity Tests of Chemicals conducted by Environment Agency in Japan (Environment Agency, 1997)). If acute toxicity data are used for a trophic level for which chronic toxicity data are not obtained, then it is classified as "Not classified" due to 48-hour EC50 = 362 mg/L for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (Results of Aquatic Toxicity Tests of Chemicals conducted by Environment Agency in Japan (Environment Agency, 1997)), being rapidly degradable (a degradation rate by BOD: 89, 35, 86% (Biodegradation and Bioconcentration Results of Existing Chemical Substances under the Chemical Substances Control Law, 1994)), and a low bioaccumulation estimate (log Kow = 1.95 (KOWWIN)). By drawing a comparison between the above results, it was classified as "Not classified." |
