Potential chronic health

Routes of Entry: Inhalation, Absorption, Eye contact, Skin contact.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Eye disease, Skin disease including eczema and sensitization, Kidney disease, Liver disease, Digestive tract disease, Lung disease. Immediate (Acute) Health Effects: Inhalation: Can cause moderate respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and headache. Skin Contact: Can cause moderate skin irritation, defatting, and dermatitis. Not likely to cause permanent damage. Eye Contact: Can cause moderate irritation, tearing and reddening, but not likely to permanently injure eye tissue. Skin Absorption: May cause irritation and minor systemic damage. Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause systemic poisoning. Can cause abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Target Organ Acute Toxicity: Eyes, Skin, Respiratory System, Kidneys, Nervous System, Blood, Liver, Digestive Tract, Thyroid, Pituitary, Testes. Long-Term (Chronic) Health Effects: Inhalation: Upon prolonged and/or repeated exposure, can cause moderate respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and headache. Skin Contact: Upon prolonged or repeated contact, can cause moderate skin irritation, defatting, and dermatitis. Not likely to cause permanent damage. Eye Contact: Upon prolonged or repeated contact, can cause moderate irritation, tearing and reddening, but not likely to permanently injure eye tissue. Skin Absorption Upon prolonged or repeated exposure, harmful if absorbed through the skin. May cause severe irritation and systemic damage. Carcinogenicity: IARC: Yes NTP: No OSHA: No Target Organ Chronic Toxicity: Respiratory System, Nervous System, Eyes, Skin, Kidneys, Blood, Liver, Digestive Tract, Pituitary, Testes. NOTICE - Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Lifetime inhalation exposure of rats and mice to high concentrations of ethylbenzene (750 ppm) resulted in increases in certain types of cancer, including kidney, lung and liver tumors. Testicular adenomas were increased as were thyroid effects in rats at 750 ppm. Pituitary effects were observed in female mice at 250 ppm. These effects were absent when exposure was below 75 ppm ethylbenzene. The study does not address the relevance of these results to humans. IV. FIRST AID Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, have a trained individual administer oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and have a trained individual administer oxygen. Get medical attention immediately.
