title: [Silica classification and labelling under REACH and CLP regulation].
abstract: Following literature data the evaluation CLP classification and labelling criteria doesn't support the decision to classify respirable crystalline silica (RCS) as carcinogen and suggests to consider RCS as:--STOT (Specific Target Organ Toxicant) RE (Repeated Exposure) cat.l by inhalation in case of concentration > or = 10%--STOT RE cat. 2 by inhalation in case of concentration 1 divided by 10%--Not classifiable as dangerous for human in case of concentration < 1%.
