Prolonged or repeated skin contact may lead to dermatitis CARCINOGENICITY: This product is not listed as a carcinogen by the international Agency for research on cancer (IARC), National Toxicology Program (NTP), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) OR ACGIH. Independent and industry toxicological experts who have reviewed the data agree that the findings of the study do not indicate a health risk to human beings. The vegetable oils used are edible cold pressed oils and Pyrethrum amounts used in this formulation are highly unlikely to cause carcinogenic effects as they are exponentially minimum and incomparable to the dosages of anticipated human dietary intakes which cause benign liver tumors. MSDS 3 MUTAGENICITY: Pyrethrum was not found to be genotoxic and did not damage DNA in any study conducted (Ames Mutagenicity assay, chromosome aberration in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, CHO/HGPRT assay with S9 activation, and in the unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) assay in cultured human liver cells). Remove contact lenses if present after the first 5 minutes, and then continue rinsing eye. Call a poison control centre or doctor for treatment advice.
