gases classified for acute toxicity in Category 1 or 2 in dangerous amounts, for example salts of hydrogen cyanide, sodium azide.

AUH066: Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking
For substances and mixtures which may cause concern as a result of skin dryness, flaking or cracking but which do not meet the criteria for skin irritancy.

AUH070: Toxic by eye contact
For substances or mixtures where an eye irritation test has resulted in overt signs of systemic toxicity or mortality among the animals tested, which is likely to be attributed to absorption of the substance or mixture through the mucous membranes of the eye. The statement should also be applied if there is evidence in humans for systemic toxicity after eye contact.
The statement should also be applied where a substance or a mixture contains another substance labelled for this effect, if the concentration of this substance is equal to, or greater than 0.1 %.

AUH071: Corrosive to the respiratory tract
For substances and mixtures in addition to classification for inhalation toxicity, if data is available that indicates the mechanism of toxicity was corrosivity.
In addition to an appropriate acute toxicity symbol, a 'corrosion' symbol (similar to the 'corrosion' symbol used for skin and eye corrosivity) is added along with the hazard statement AUH071: Corrosive to the respiratory tract.
For substances and mixtures in addition to classification for skin corrosivity, if no acute inhalation test data is available and which may be inhaled.

APPENDIX D – GUIDE FOR SELECTING GENERIC NAMES
This guide describes a procedure for naming hazardous chemicals and the division of substances into families, which is described in subsection D1.3. Generic names are not permitted for hazardous chemicals with health hazards above the concentration cut-off.
The families are defined in the following manner:
    * inorganic or organic substances whose properties are identified by having a common chemical element as their chief characteristic. The family name is derived from the name of the chemical element. These families are identified in subsection D1.3 by the atomic number of the chemical element (Family No. 001 to 103)
    * organic substances whose properties are identified by having a common functional group as their chief characteristic.
         * the family name is derived from the functional group name
         * these families are identified by the number convention found in subsection D1.3 (Family No. 601 to 650).
    * sub-families bringing together substances with a common specific character have been added in certain cases.

Establishing the Generic Name

D1.1         General Principles
In selecting a generic name, the following approach is adopted:
    * the most specific generic name must be chosen
    * identity of the functional groups and chemical elements present in the molecule
    *
