Precautionary statements
P304+340 - IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. P305+351+338 - IF IN EYES: Rinse continuously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Potential Ecological effects: Large amounts of anhydrous borax can be harmful to plants and other species. Therefore, releases to the environment should be minimized. Reproductive/Developmental:animal ingestion studies in several species at high doses, indicate that borates cause reproductive developmental effects. A human study of occupational exposure to borate dust showed no adverse effect on reproduction. Signs and sypmtoms of exposure: Symptons of accidental over-exposure to anhydrous boax have been associated with ingestion or absorption through large areas of damaged skin. These may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, with delayed effects of skin redness and peeling.
