2.3 Other hazards

This substance is not classified as PBT or vPvB according to current EU criteria. The bacteria and fungi in this mixture are considered to belong to hazard group 1 as defined by the Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP) as “a biological agent unlikely to cause human disease”. It should NOT be assumed. However, that these organisms will be innocuous in all situations or that infections can never occur. The mixture should therefore not be used by, or in the presence of immunocompromised persons. This product does not meet the criteria for classification as hazardous as defined in the Regulation EC 1272/2008 and in Directive 67/548/EEC. Depending on the type of handling and use, airborne respirable crystalline silica may be generated. Prolonged and/or massive inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust (particles up to 10 microns in size) may cause lung fibrosis, commonly referred to as silicosis. Principal symptoms of silicosis are cough and breathlessness. Occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust should be monitored and controlled.
