NZ EMERGENCY SERVICES: 111

SWALLOWED
Not considered a normal route of entry.
路 If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
路 If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if
possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
路 Observe the patient carefully.
路 Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness;
i.e. becoming unconscious.
路 Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can
comfortably drink.
路 Seek medical advice.

EYE
If aerosols come in contact with the eyes:
路 Immediately hold the eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously for at least 15
minutes with fresh running water.
路 Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and
moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
路 Transport to hospital or doctor without delay.
路 Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled
personnel.

SKIN
If solids or aerosol mists are deposited upon the skin:
路 Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
路 Remove any adhering solids with industrial skin cleansing cream.
路 DO NOT use solvents.
路 Seek medical attention in the event of irritation.

INHALED
If aerosols, fumes or combustion products are inhaled:
路 Remove to fresh air.
路 Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
路 Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where
possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
路 If breathing is shallow or has stopped, ensure clear airway and apply resuscitation,
preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as
trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
路 Transport to hospital, or doctor.

NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
Treat symptomatically.
For acute or short term repeated exposures to petroleum distillates or related
hydrocarbons:
路 Primary threat to life, from pure petroleum distillate ingestion and/or inhalation, is
respiratory failure.
路 Patients should be quickly evaluated for signs of respiratory distress (e.g. cyanosis,
tachypnoea, intercostal retraction, obtundation) and given oxygen. Patients with
inadequate tidal volumes or poor arterial blood gases (pO2 50 mm Hg) should be intubated.
路 Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and
electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported; intravenous lines
and cardiac monitors should be established in obviously symptomatic patients. The lungs
excrete inhaled solvents, so that hyperventilation improves clearance.
路 A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and

circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax.
路 Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm because of
potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled cardioselective
bronchodilators (e.g. Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred agents, with aminophylline a
second choice.
路 Lavage is indicated in patients who require decontamination; ensure use of cuffed
endotracheal tube in adult patients. [Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].

1 PROTECTIVE ACTION ZONE is defined as the area in which people are at risk of harmful exposure. This zone
assumes that random changes in wind direction confines the vapour plume to an area within 30 degrees on
either side of the predominant wind direction, resulting in a crosswind protective action distance equal
to the downwind protective action distance.

vapour concentration may exist resulting in nearly all unprotected persons becoming incapacitated and
unable to take protective action and/or incurring serious or irreversible health effects.
3 INITIAL ISOLATION ZONE is determined as an area, including upwind of the incident, within which a high
probability of localised wind reversal may expose nearly all persons without appropriate protection to
life-threatening concentrations of the material.
4 SMALL SPILLS involve a leaking package of 200 litres (55 US gallons) or less, such as a drum (jerrican or
box with inner containers). Larger packages leaking less than 200 litres and compressed gas leaking from
a small cylinder are also considered "small spills".
LARGE SPILLS involve many small leaking packages or a leaking package of greater than 200 litres, such as
a cargo tank, portable tank or a "one-tonne" compressed gas cylinder.
5 Guide 126 is taken from the US DOT emergency response guide book.
6 IERG information is derived from CANUTEC - Transport Canada.

INGREDIENT DATA
NAPHTHA PETROLEUM, LIGHT, HYDROTREATED:
ORANGE, SWEET, EXTRACT:
Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on
the eyes, nose or throat. Historically occupational exposure standards for these
irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to various airborne
concentrations. Present day expectations require that nearly every individual should be
protected against even minor sensory irritation and exposure standards are established
using uncertainty factors or safety factors of 5 to 10 or more. On occasion animal no
-observable-effect-levels (NOEL) are used to determine these limits where human results
are unavailable. An additional approach, typically used by the TLV committee (USA) in
determining respiratory standards for this group of chemicals, has been to assign ceiling
values (TLV C) to rapidly acting irritants and to assign short-term exposure limits (TLV
STELs) when the weight of evidence from irritation, bioaccumulation and other endpoints
combine to warrant such a limit. In contrast the MAK Commission (Germany) uses a five
-category system based on intensive odour, local irritation, and elimination half-life.
However this system is being replaced to be consistent with the European Union (EU)
Scientific Committee for Occupational Exposure Limits (SCOEL); this is more closely
allied to that of the USA.
OSHA (USA) concluded that exposure to sensory irritants can:
路 cause inflammation
路 cause increased susceptibility to other irritants and infectious agents
路 lead to permanent injury or dysfunction
路 permit greater absorption of hazardous substances and
路 acclimate the worker to the irritant warning properties of these substances thus
increasing the risk of overexposure.

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION


CARBON DIOXIDE:
NOTE: Detector tubes for carbon dioxide, measuring in excess of 0.01 % vol.,
are commercially available. Long-term measurements (4 hrs) may be
conducted to detect concentrations exceeding 250 ppm.
Studies using physically fit males in confined spaces indicate the TLV-TWA
and STEL provides a wide margin of safety against asphyxiation and from
undue metabolic stress, provided normal amounts of oxygen are present in
inhaled air. Lowered oxygen content, increased physical activity and
prolonged exposures each impact on systemic and respiratory effects.
Stimulation of the respiratory centre is produced at 50,000 ppm (5%). The
gas is weakly narcotic at 30,000 ppm giving rise to reduced acuity of
hearing and increasing blood pressure and pulse, Persons exposed at
20,000 ppm for several hours developed headaches and dyspnea on mild
exertion, Acidosis and adrenal cortical exhaustion occurred as a result
of prolonged continuous exposure at 10,000-20,0000 ppm.
Intoxication occurs after a 30 minute exposure at 50,000 ppm whilst
exposure at 70,000-100,000 ppm produces unconsciousness within a few
minutes.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS

SWALLOWED
Although ingestion is not thought to produce harmful effects (as classified under EC
Directives), 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 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.
Not normally a hazard due to physical form of product.
Considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments.
Swallowing of the liquid may cause aspiration into the lungs with the risk of chemical
pneumonitis; serious consequences may result.
(ICSC13733).

EYE
Although the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives),
direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterised by tearing or
conjunctival redness (as with windburn).
Petroleum hydrocarbons may produce pain after direct contact with the eyes. Slight, but
transient disturbances of the corneal epithelium may also result. The aromatic fraction
may produce irritation and lachrymation.

SKIN
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either produces
inflammation of the skin in a substantial number of individuals following direct contact,
and/or produces significant inflammation when applied to the healthy intact skin of
animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation being present twenty-four hours or more
after the end of the exposure period. Skin irritation may also be present after prolonged
or repeated exposure; this may result in a form of contact dermatitis (nonallergic). The
dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema) which
may progress to blistering (vesiculation), scaling and thickening of the epidermis. At
the microscopic level there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer of the skin
(spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis.
Skin contact is not thought to have harmful health effects (as classified under EC
Directives); the material may still produce health damage following entry through wounds,
lesions or abrasions.
Spray mist may produce discomfort.
Toxic effects may result from skin absorption.
The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may
produce a contact dermatitis (nonallergic). This form of dermatitis is often
characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling epidermis. Histologically there may
be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the
epidermis.

INHALED
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the
respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless,
good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable
control measures be used in an occupational setting.
Not normally a hazard due to non-volatile nature of product.
Acute effects from inhalation of high vapour concentrations may be chest and nasal
irritation with coughing, sneezing, headache and even nausea.
WARNING:Intentional misuse by concentrating/inhaling contents may be lethal.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Practical experience shows that skin contact with the material is capable either of
inducing a sensitisation reaction in a substantial number of individuals, and/or of
producing a positive response in experimental animals.
Exposure to the material may cause concerns for human fertility, generally on the basis
that results in animal studies provide sufficient evidence to cause a strong suspicion of
impaired fertility in the absence of toxic effects, or evidence of impaired fertility
occurring at around the same dose levels as other toxic effects, but which are not a
secondary non-specific consequence of other toxic effects.
Principal routes of exposure are by accidental skin and eye contact and by inhalation of
vapours especially at higher temperatures.
Prolonged or continuous skin contact with the liquid may cause defatting with drying,
cracking, irritation and dermatitis following.
Chronic solvent inhalation exposures may result in nervous system impairment
and liver and blood changes. [PATTYS].
WARNING: Aerosol containers may present pressure related hazards.

TOXICITY IRRITATION
Skin (rabbit): 500mg/24h Moderate
Contact allergies quickly manifest themselves as contact eczema, more rarely as urticaria
or Quincke's oedema. The pathogenesis of contact eczema involves a cell-mediated (T
lymphocytes) immune reaction of the delayed type. Other allergic skin reactions, e.g.
contact urticaria, involve antibody-mediated immune reactions. The significance of the
contact allergen is not simply determined by its sensitisation potential: the
distribution of the substance and the opportunities for contact with it are equally
important. A weakly sensitising substance which is widely distributed can be a more
important allergen than one with stronger sensitising potential with which few
individuals come into contact. From a clinical point of view, substances are noteworthy
if they produce an allergic test reaction in more than 1% of the persons tested.

Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Some of the material will become associated with benthic sediments, and it is likely to
be spread over a fairly wide area of sea floor. Marine sediments may be either aerobic or
anaerobic. The material, in probability, is biodegradable, under aerobic conditions
(isomerised olefins and alkenes show variable results). Evidence also suggests that the
hydrocarbons may be degradable under anaerobic conditions although such degradation in
benthic sediments may be a relatively slow process.

Under aerobic conditions the material will degrade to water and carbon dioxide, while
under anaerobic processes it will produce water, methane and carbon dioxide.

Based on test results, as well as theoretical considerations, the potential for
bioaccumulation may be high. Toxic effects are often observed in species such as blue
mussel, daphnia, freshwater green algae, marine copepods and amphipods.

Substances containing unsaturated carbons are ubiquitous in indoor environments. They
result from many sources (see below). Most are reactive with environmental ozone and many
produce stable products which are thought to adversely affect human health.The potential
for surfaces in an enclosed space to facilitate reactions should be considered.

REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH GUIDELINES
Established occupational exposure limits frequently do not take into consideration
reproductive end points that are clearly below the thresholds for other toxic effects.
Occupational reproductive guidelines (ORGs) have been suggested as an additional
standard. These have been established after a literature search for reproductive no
-observed-adverse effect-level (NOAEL) and the lowest-observed-adverse-effect-level
(LOAEL). In addition the US EPA's procedures for risk assessment for hazard
identification and dose-response assessment as applied by NIOSH were used in the creation
of such limits. Uncertainty factors (UFs) have also been incorporated.
Ingredient ORG UF Endpoi CR Adeq
nt TLV
carbon dioxide 1800 mg/m3 10 D/R NA -
These exposure guidelines have been derived from a screening level of risk assessment and
should not be construed as unequivocally safe limits. ORGS represent an 8-hour time
-weighted average unless specified otherwise.
CR = Cancer Risk/10000; UF = Uncertainty factor:
TLV believed to be adequate to protect reproductive health:
LOD: Limit of detection
Toxic endpoints have also been identified as:
D = Developmental; R = Reproductive; TC = Transplacental carcinogen
