In , the EPA established four Toxicity Categories for acute hazards of pesticide products, with "Category I" being the highest toxicity category. Most human hazard, precautionary statements, and human personal protective equipment statements are based upon the Toxicity Category of the pesticide product as sold or distributed. In addition, toxicity categories may be used for regulatory purposes other than labeling, such as classification for restricted use and requirements for child-resistant packaging. In certain cases, statements based upon the Toxicity Category of the product as diluted for use are also permitted. A Toxicity Category is assigned for each of five types of acute exposure, as specified in the table below. ==Overview== The four toxicity categories, from one to four are: *Toxicity category I is Highly toxic and Severely irritating, *Toxicity category II is Moderately toxic and Moderately irritating, *Toxicity category III is Slightly toxic and Slightly irritating, *Toxicity category IV is Practically non-toxic and not an irritant. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toxicity category rating」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
