2.3 Other hazards

The potential health hazards associated with exposure/handling of this mixture are unknown; no data specific for the mixture were identified. The following data describe the hazards of individual ingredients, where applicable. Because the mixture contains a protein (bovine serum albumin) it may cause an allergic skin or respiratory reaction (e.g., potential to cause anaphylaxis). In a workplace setting, the likelihood of systemic effects following accidental ingestion is low, due to the rapid breakdown of proteins in the digestive tract. Bovine serum albumin has been associated with occupational sensitization. Although antibody particles are fairly large proteins, it is not known if systemic effects can occur SECTION 2 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION …continued Other hazards …continued following accidental inhalation. Proteins, in general, can cause skin and/or respiratory sensitization.
