POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS

ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS

SWALLOWED

  Although ingestion is not thought to produce harmful effects, the material may still be damaging to the health of the individual following ingestion, especially where pre-  existing organ (e.g. liver, kidney) damage is evident. Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally based on doses producing mortality (death) rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-health). Gastrointestinal tract discomfort may produce nausea and vomiting. In an occupational setting however, ingestion of insignificant quantities is not thought to be cause for concern.  Overexposure is unlikely in this form.  Considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments.  

EYE

  There is some evidence to suggest that this material can causeeye irritation and damage in some persons.  

SKIN

  The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting.  

INHALED

  There is some evidence to suggest that this material, if inhaled, can irritate the throat and lungs of some persons.  Although inhalation is not thought to produce harmful effects, the material may still produce health damage, especially where pre-existing organ (e.g. liver, kidney) damage is evident. Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally confined to doses producing mortality (death) rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-  health).  Inhalation hazard is increased at higher temperatures.  WARNING: Intentional misuse by concentrating/inhaling contents may be lethal.  WARNING: Aerosol containers may present pressure related hazards.  

CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS

  There is some evidence that inhaling this product is more likely to cause a sensitization reaction in some persons compared to the general population.  

  Principal routes of exposure are usually by skin contact/eye contact and inhalation of vapor/spray mist.  Inhalation of the mist/vapour may cause sneezing, coughing, headache with  nose inflammation and mucous membrane irritation; dizziness and intoxication  particularly if direct sprayed or with severe or prolonged exposure.  Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause stinging or burning sensation.  Direct eye contact will cause burning pain and reddening of the eyes.  Ingestion, if possible, may result in nausea, vomiting and gastro-intestinal  upsets. May cause chemical pneumonitis from aspiration if vomiting occurs  after ingestion of more than 2 ml [Manufacturer].
