Division 3.1.4.2 F1

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The acute toxicity hazard statements differentiate the hazard based on the route of exposure. Communication of acute toxicity classification should also reflect this differentiation. If a substance or mixture is classified for more than one route of exposure then all relevant classifications should be communicated on the safety data sheet as specified in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 and the relevant hazard communication elements included on the label as prescribed in section 3.1.3.2. If the statement ‘ x % of the mixture consists of ingredient(s) of unknown acute toxicity ’ is communicated, as prescribed in section 3.1.3.6.2.2, then, in the information provided in the safety data sheet, it can also be differentiated based on the route of exposure. For example, ‘ x % of the mixture consists of ingredient(s) of unknown acute oral toxicity ’ and ‘ x % of the mixture consists of ingredient(s) of unknown acute dermal toxicity ’ .
