3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
This material is of very low acute toxicity, LD50 > 5000mg/kg, and is non-
irritating to the skin but is corrosive to the eyes.
This compound is not ionisable and does not produce an allergic response
when administered to persons sensitised to platinum-halogeno compounds.
This material is reported as producing mutagenic effects in bacteria and in
isolated mammalian (including human) cells. Users should note that the cis
isomer is very toxic and has marked mutagenic properties. 聽 聽
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Over-exposure to this material may produce the following symptoms -
First Aid
Inhalation : irritation of the respiratory system with coughing. Ingestion :
abdominal pain and vomiting. Eye contact : severe pain, blurred vision and
