11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFO: RTECS: QJ6430000	LD50/LC50: Intravenous – Mouse 2,260mg/kg
Carcinogenicity: Not listed by ACGIH, IARC, NIOSH, NTP, or OSHA. Possible carcinogen.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFO: Environmental Toxicity: No data available.  C.I.24410 dye is water soluble and may leach through the soil.  It may also biodegrade under anaerobic conditions.  Estimate BCF value = 2 based on water solubility of 40,000 mg/L.  This value indicates that the bioconcentration of this dye in aquatic organisms will not be an important fate process.

13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS: Chemical waste generators must determine whether a discarded chemical is classified as a hazardous waste. US EPA guidelines for the classification determination are listed in 40 CFR Parts 261.3. Additionally, waste generators must consult state and local hazardous waste regulations to ensure complete and accurate classification. 	RCRA P-Series: None listed.  RCRA U-Series: None listed.
