    3. evidence from human exposure that indicates toxic effects but does not provide lethal dose data;
    4. acute dose-range finding studies, chronic toxicity/carcinogenicity tests, with non-lethal end-points;
    5. The criteria for classification of substances for acute toxicity as outlined in section 3.1.2 are based on lethal dose data (tested or derived).

    7. evidence from any other toxicity tests/assays available on the substance that indicates toxic acute effects but does not necessarily provide lethal dose data; or
