Potential health effects

of exposure Acetic Acid ( 64-19-7 ) Acetic Acid: Concentrated acid produces severe injury to all living tissue. The reactions are similar to those, which are associated with other highly corrosive compounds. Causes severe burns of the skin which may result in extensive areas of damage. Underlying structures may be involved. Delayed effects may include infection, scarring, and prolonged periods of recuperation. Death may accompany burns over major portions of the body surface. May cause severe burns and destruction of the eye and surrounding structures. Vapors and mists are highly corrosive to mucous membranes of the airway, producing irritation, reddening and edema. Bronchitis, pulmonary edema and chemical pneumonitis may occur. The post-acute phase may be complicated by infection and scarring of tissues. Death may occur. Ingestion leads to burns of the lining mucous membranes and deeper structures. There may be pain, vomiting, hemorrhage, and perforation of organs. Obstruction may occur promptly as a consequence of residual scar formation. Repeated or prolonged contact with acetic acid may cause darkening and irritation of skin, erosion of exposed teeth, and chronic inflammation of the respiratory system. Mixed in-vitro mutagenicity results reported. Positive results are thought to be due to artifacts caused by acidification of the culture media. No reproductive results found after animal testing on pregnant rabbits, rats and mice. Ethoxylated Alcohol Some ethoxylated alcohols have been known to cause eye and skin irritation. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. Known effects on other illnesses: No known effects on other illnesses for this product.
