===================== Hazards Identification =====================
LD50 LC50 Mixture:LD50 (ORAL, RAT) 1.3 G/KG
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:TARGET ORGANS-LIVER, KIDNEYS, SPLEEN,
LUNGS, HEART, ADRENAL GLANDS, PANCREAS. ACUTE: EYES-AN EYE
IRRITANT. INHALATION-TOXIC FUMES NOT NORMALLY GENERATED. BREATHING
MISTS CAN RESULT IN LOST SENSE OF SM ELL, NOSE & THROAT IRRITATION.
SKIN-THE PRODUCT IS NOT A PRIMARY IRRITANT. IT CAN PRODUCE SLIGHT
EDEMA ON PROLONGED & REPEATED CONTACT. CHRONIC: EYES-NO DATA
SPECIFIC TO CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE. SEE ACUT E. INHALATION-CHRONIC
OVEREXPOSURE MAY CAUSE WEAKNESS, PALLOR, ANEMIA, ENLARGEMENT OF
LIVER & DEGENERATIVE CHANGES IN TARGET ORGAN. INGESTION-SAME AS
INHALATION. SKIN-MAY CAUSE SKIN SENSITIZATION RESU LTING IN
IRRITATION, DERMATITIS, EDEMA.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:WHILE BOTH SELENIUM AND COPPER ARE
CLASSIFIED AS ESSENTIAL TRACE ELEMENTS IN ANIMALS, THE REGISTRY OF
TOXIC EFFECTS OF CHEMICALS CITES EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE OF
MUTAGENIC, REPRODUCTIVE, AND TUMORIGENIC EFFECTS OF SELENITES AND
VARIOUS COPPER COMPOUNDS. IT WOULD BE PRUDENT FOR PREGNANT
INDIVIDUALS TO AVOID CONTACT WITH THE PRODUCT.
Effects of Overexposure:ACUTE - EYES: CAN CAUSE REDNESS,
CONJUNCTIVITIS, SWELLING OF EYELIDS, A WATERY-MUCOID DISCHARGE AND
CORNEAL OPACITY. INHALATION: BREATHING MISTS CAN RESULT IN LOST
SENSE OF SMELL, NOSE AND THROAT IRRI TATION, GARLIC ODOR OF BREATH,
HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, TREMORS, DIFFICULTY BREATHING, BRONCHITIS,
PNEUMONITIS, BRONICHIAL ASTHMA. INGESTION: MAY PRODUCE METALLIC
TASTE, GARLIC ODOR OF BREATH, HEADACHE, L ASSITUDE, NAUSEA,
VOMITING, PAIN.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:IT CAN CAUSE SKIN SENSITIZATION IN
SOME INDIVIDUALS. PRECLUDE FROM CONTACT WITH PRODUCT THOSE WITH
WILSON'S DISEASE OR DISEASES OF THE SKIN, LUNGS, LIVER, KIDNEYS OR
GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:EYES-IMMEDIATELY RINSE EYES THOROUGHLY WITH CLEAN WATER.
INSTILLATION OF AQUEOUS 10% SODIUM THIOSULFATE SOLUTION IS ALSO
RECOMMENDED. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN. INHALATION-REMOVE FROM EXPOSURE.
IF BREATHIN G DIFFICULT, PROVIDE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION OR OXYGEN.
CONSULT A PHYSICIAN. DIURETICS SPEED ELIMINATION OF SELENIUM.
VITAMIN B COMPLEX, VITAMIN C, METHIONINE SUPPLEMENTS ARE
RECOMMENDED. INGESTION-IF BREATHING DIFFICULT, PROVIDE ARTIFICIAL
RESPIRATION OR OXYGEN. IF CONSCIOUS & NOT VOMITING, INDUCE
VOMITING. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN-WASH AFFECTED AREA WITH SOAP
& WATER. APPLICATION OF A 10% NA THIOSULFATE CREAM IS ADVISED.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point:NON-FLAMMABLE
Extinguishing Media:NONFLAMMABLE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:NONFLAMMABLE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NON-FLAMMABLE. NON-EXPLOSIVE EXCEPT WITH
WATER-REACTIVE SUBSTANCES.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:TO TREAT THE LIQUID & COVERT IT TO A SOLID
WASTE, ADD 2 OZ OF DEGREASED STEEL WOOL PER GALLON OF SOLUTION
(8OZ/GAL). STIR FOR AT LEAST 2 HRS. PERIODICALLY ADJUST PH TO 1.5
WITH NITRIC ACID. WHEN REACT ION IS COMPLETE, ADJUST PH TO 8 WITH
SODIUM BICARBONATE OR SODIUM HYDROXIDE & FILTER. LIQUID CAN DO DOWN
THE DRIAN.
