Health hazards

Based on MDI-irritant (eye, skin, respiratory, passages, skin sensitizer), Inhalation (TLV), Harmful (respiratory sensitizer, lung injury. General: No toxicity information is available on this specific preparation as this health assessment is based on information available on the individual components. Ingestion: A single dose of this product is practically non-toxic by ingestion. Irritation of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus and stomach can develop following consumption. Eye Contact: This material will irritate the eye and eye protection must be used at times when handling this product. Consult physician immediately. Skin Contact: This material may irritate the skin with prolonged use, latex gloves should always be used. Skin sensitization and irritation will develop with repeated contact with skin. Preliminary data from a particular research study indicates MDI in corn oil injected intra-dermal In guinea pigs can cause a respiratory sensitization reaction. The potential for MDI to induce a res- also be induced by repeated skin contact and/or absorption. Toxic concentrations of this product will not probably be absorbed through the human skin.

There are reports that chronic exposures may result in permanent decreases in lung Inhalation: Vapors and aerosols will irritate eyes, nose and respiratory passages. Severe over- exposure may lead to edema. MDI can induce respiratory sensitization with asthma-like symptoms similar to those induced by TDI (toluene diisocyanate). Symptoms include cough, tightness of chest with difficultly in breathing. These symptoms may be immediate or delayed up to several hours af- function. An over-exposure study was completed where groups of rats were exposed for 6 hours/ SECURE through the study. These high concentrations lead to chronic irritation and lung damage. Therefore, day, 5 days/week to atmospheres of polymeric MDI aerosol. Overall, the tumor incidence, both be- nign and malignant, were not different from the control animals which were not subjected. Howev- er, at the top level only 96 mg/m3, there was a significant incidence of benign tumors of the lung (Adenoma) and one malignant tumor (Aden carcinoma). There were no lung tumors at 1mg/m3 and no effects at .2 mg/m3. The increased incidence of lung tumors is associated with prolonged respir- atory exposure and the concurrent accumulation of yellow material in the lung, which occurred in the absence of these severe prolonged exposures, it is highly unlikely that tumor formation will occur.
