evidence of carcinogenicity in rats.


Section 4 - First Aid Measures
Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water. Get medical attention.

Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and clean before reuse. Wash all exposed areas of skin with
plenty of soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops.

Inhalation: Move individual to fresh air. Get medical attention if breathing difficulty occurs. If not
breathing, provide artificial respiration assistance (mouth-to-mouth) and call a physician immediately.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center. If available, administer
activated charcoal (6-8 heaping teaspoons) with two to three glasses of water. Do not give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Immediately transport to a medical care facility and see a physician.


Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Spills: Prevent further migration into the environment. Use absorbent/adsorbent material to solidify
liquids. Sweep up or vacuum. Wear protective equipment, including eye protection, to avoid exposure
(see Section 8 for specific handling precautions). m-Cresol is a CERCLA Hazardous Substance and a
SARA 313 Toxic Chemical.

Glycerin - Material is practically non-toxic to aquatic organisms. Material is not expected to
bioconcentrate in aquatic organisms and is expected to be highly mobile in soil. Material is not
expected to readily volatilize; however, once in the atmosphere it will readily photodegrade. Material is
expected to be rapidly degraded by microorganisms.

Waste Disposal: Dispose of any cleanup materials and waste residue according to all applicable laws
and regulations. This material contains m-cresol and may be regulated under 40 CFR 261.24 when
disposed in bulk quantities or in a production setting. The finished product, e.g., vials, would not be
regulated under 40 CFR 261 for disposal under normal use and handling conditions.
