4 | Skin sensitization | * |
- |
- | - |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1), it was classified as "Not classified." [Evidence Data] (1) In a mouse local lymph node assay (LLNA) in accordance with OECD TG 429, SI values were less than 3, therefore, it was judged as negative (REACH registration dossier (Access on October 2019)). |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | * |
- |
- | - |
[Rationale for the Classification] There are no in vivo data. Therefore, classification was not possible due to lack of data. [Evidence Data] (1) As for in vitro, there is a report that it was negative in a bacterial reverse mutation test (DFGOT vol.23 (2007)). |
6 | Carcinogenicity | * |
- |
- | - |
[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data. The category was changed by reviewing classification results by other organizations. [Reference Data, etc.] (1) As for classification results by domestic and international organizations for antimony compounds, IARC classified antimony trioxide (CAS RN 1309-64-4) in Group 2B and antimony trisulfide (CAS RN 1345-04-6) in Group 3. |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | * |
- |
- | - |
[Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data. [Reference Data, etc.] (1)In a developmental toxicity test by gavage administration of the sodium salt (sodium hexahydroxoantimonate, CAS RN 33908-66-6) with female rats during day 6 to 19 of pregnancy, at the highest dose (1,000 mg/kg), neither maternal nor developmental toxicity was observed (REACH registration dossier (Access on October 2019)). |

[Rationale for the Classification] From (1) and (2), there is a risk that acute exposure affects the lung and cardiovascular system in humans, therefore, it was classified in Category 1 (lung, cardiovascular system). [Evidence Data] (1) There is no information on this substance itself, however, as for antimony and its compounds, there is a description that pneumonitis and cardiac and hematological disorders would be anticipated by exposures at high concentrations, acute or chronic (ACGIH (7th, 2001)). (2) In "Disease designated by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare due to work involving exposure to simple chemical substances or compounds (including alloys) designated by the Minister of Health, Labuor and Welfare" (Ministry of Labour Notification No. 33, 1996), the diseases designated by the Minister of Labour (currently the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare) for antimony and its compounds are described as headache, dizziness, vomiting and other subjective symptoms, skin disorders, ocular disorders, myocardial disorders or gastrointestinal disorders. [Reference Data, etc.] (3) As for sodium salt (sodium hexahydroxoantimonate, CAS RN 33908-66-6), there is a report that in a 4-hour dust inhalation test with rats at 5.4 mg/L (corresponding to Category 2), there were no deaths, signs of respiratory irritation, or test substance-related histopathological changes in the nose, larynx, trachea and lung (REACH registration dossier (Access on October 2019)). |

[Rationale for the Classification] From (1) and (2), there is a risk that repeated exposure affects the lung and cardiovascular system in humans, therefore, it was classified in Category 1 (lung, cardiovascular system). [Evidence Data] (1) There is no information on this substance itself, however, as for antimony and its compounds, there is a description that pneumonitis and cardiac and hematological disorders would be anticipated by exposures at high concentrations, acute or chronic (ACGIH (7th, 2001)). (2) In "Disease designated by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare due to work involving exposure to simple chemical substances or compounds (including alloys) designated by the Minister of Health, Labuor and Welfare" (Ministry of Labour Notification No. 33, 1996), the diseases designated by the Minister of Labour (currently the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare) for antimony and its compounds are described as headache, dizziness, vomiting and other subjective symptoms, skin disorders, ocular disorders, myocardial disorders or gastrointestinal disorders. [Reference Data, etc.] (3) Oral administration of sodium hexahydroxoantimonate (CAS RN 33908-66-6) to rats for 90 days resulted in no dose-related effects observed at up to 1,000 mg/kg/day (exceeding the range of Category 2) (REACH registration dossier (Access on October 2019)). |

It was classified in Category 3 from 96-hour LC50 = 6.9 mg Sb/L (14.9 mg this substance/L) for fish (Pagrus major) (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances Vol. 15 (Ministry of the Environment, 2017)). |

H411 |
P273
P391 P501 |
If chronic toxicity data are used, then it is classified as "Not classified" due to 21-day NOEC = 29.3 mg Sb/L (63.3 mg this substance/L) for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances Vol. 15 (Ministry of the Environment, 2017)), despite unknown environmental dynamics of the inorganic compound. If acute toxicity data are used for a trophic level for which chronic toxicity data are not obtained, then it is classified in Category 3 due to 96-hour LC50 = 6.9 mg Sb/L (14.9 mg this substance/L) for fish (Pagrus major) (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances Vol. 15 (Ministry of the Environment, 2017)), despite unknown environmental dynamics of the inorganic compound. By drawing a comparison between the above results, it was classified in Category 3. |
