PPooottteeennntttiiiaaalll P HHeeeaaalllttthhh H EEffffffeeeccctttsss E See section 11 for long term effects Inhalation Short term exposure: Not normally a hazard due to non-volatile nature of the product. The spray mist may be discomforting to the upper respiratory tract and lungs and may cause infection. Skin Contact: Short term exposure: The material may be moderately discomforting to the skin if exposure is prolonged and is capable of causing infection. Bare unprotected skin should not be exposed to this material. The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may produce a contact dermatitis (nonallergic). This form of dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema) which may progress to vesiculation, scaling and thickening of the epidermis. Histologically there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis. Infection through breaks in the skin is possible resulting in pustule formation. Self-administration may result in infection. Eye Contact: Short term exposure: The material may be moderately discomforting, may cause infection to the eyes and is capable of causing temporary impaired vision. The material may be irritating to the eye, with prolonged contact causing inflammation. Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce conjunctivitis. Serious ocular lesions may form. Ingestion: Short term exposure: The material may be discomforting if swallowed and is capable of causing infection. Carcinogen Status: SWA: No significant ingredient is classified as carcinogenic by SWA. NTP: No significant ingredient is classified as carcinogenic by NTP. IARC: No significant ingredient is classified as carcinogenic by IARC.
