Potential health effects

Chronic: Effects may be delayed. Laboratory experiments have shown mutagenic effects. Repeated contact may cause corneal damage. May cause adverse reproductive effects. Chronic inhalation may cause effects similar to those of acute inhalation. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause defatting and dermatitis. Animal studies have reported that fetal effects/abnormalities may occur when maternal toxicity is seen. Chronic overexposure to vapors may cause lung damage. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause CNS stimulation. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Adverse reproductive effects have been reported in animals. Testicular effects in rats were noted after repeated, high-dose oral and inhalation exposures. (BASF) Human occupational exposure has been associated with chronic eye irritation, headaches, and irritant contact dermatitis. Airborne concentrations of 49 to 83 ppm are intolerable. (REPROTEXT) 2.3.1 Inhalation: Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause methemoglobinemia, cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation of the blood), convulsions, tachycardia, dyspnea (labored breathing), and death. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema. Inhalation of vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness. May cause central nervous system effects such as nausea and headache. Neurobehavioural effects of exposure to MEK (200 ppm for 4 hrs) were studied with 137 volunteers. There were no statistically significant effects observed in biochemical, psychomotor, sensorimotor and psychological tests. Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system effects characterized by nausea, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness and coma. May be harmful if inhaled. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. May cause headache. Material has a very low vapor pressure at room temperature, so inhalation exposures are not expected unless material is heated or misted. 2.3.2 Skin Contact: Causes skin irritation. Absorption into the body may cause cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation of the blood). May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause drying and cracking of the skin. Only one human case of skin sensitization was located. Negative results were obtained in an animal test; MEK did not produce skin sensitization in the mouse ear thickness test. May cause skin irritation. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin. Prolonged and/or frequent contact may cause drying, cracking or folliculitis. Not expected to cause an allergic skin reaction. Because of the high permeability rate of N-methylpyrrolidone in human skin, prolonged exposures should be avoided. 2.3.3 Eye Contact: May cause chemical conjunctivitis. Causes eye irritation and possible injury. Causes eye irritation. Vapors may cause eye irritation. Animal evidence suggests that MEK is a moderate to severe eye irritant. May cause eye irritation. May cause temporary corneal clouding. 2.3.4 Ingestion: May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause hemolytic anemia. May cause irritation of the digestive tract. Possible aspiration hazard. May cause central nervous system depression. Animal evidence suggests that MEK can be aspirated (inhaled) into the lungs during ingestion or vomiting. May cause central nervous system depression, characterized by excitement, followed by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced stages may cause collapse, unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory failure.
