| Effects
of Overexposure: |
Acute: (Short Term
Exposure)
EYE CONTACT: CAUSES
IRRITATION SEEN AS TEARING, REDNESS, BLURRED VISION AND A
BURNING SENSATION. PROLONGED CONTACT MAY CAUSE POSSIBLE
TRANSIENT CORNEAL INJURY. SKIN CONTACT: CAUSES IRRITATION SEEN
AS REDNESS, ITCHING AND A BURNING SENSATION. PROLONGED CONTACT
CAN CAUSE SEVERE IRRITATION AND A BURNING SENSATION AND MAY
CAUSE DEFATTING OF THE SKIN RESULTING IN DERMATITIS. PRODUCT
MAY BE ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN IN HARMFUL AMOUNTS WITH
EFFECTS SIMILAR TO INGESTION. INHALATION: AT LOW LEVELS OF
CONCENTRATION, INITIAL SYMPTOMS MAY INCLUDE HEADACHE,
DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, LOSS OF CONCENTRATION AND IRRITATION. WITH
EXTREMELY HIGH EXPOSURE LEVELS, CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
DEPRESSION (INTOXICATION), CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA AND DECREASED
BODY WEIGHT MAY OCCUR. INHALATION OF HIGH LEVELS OF ZINC OXIDE
FUMES MAY RESULT IN TIGHTNESS OF CHEST, METALLIC TASTE, COUGH,
DIZZINES, FEVER, CHILLS, HEADACHE, NAUSEA AND DRY THROAT.
THESE ARE SYMPTOMS OF METAL FUME FEVER AND ARE CAUSED BY
INHALATION OF METAL FUMES WHICH ARE PRODUCED WHEN THE METAL IS
HEATED INTENSELY. INGESTION: MAY CAUSE GASTROINTESTINAL
IRRITATION SEEN AS NAUSEA, VOMITING AND DIARRHEA. ALCOHOL MAY
EXACERBATE THE EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE. |
Chronic: (Long Term
Exposure)
EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE
MAY CAUSE CARBOXYHEMOGLOBINEMIA, THEREBY IMPAIRING THE BLOOD'S
ABILITY TO TRANSPORT OXYGEN. TARGET ORGANS: CENTRAL NERVOUS
SYSTEM, HEART, LIVER, LUNGS, KIDNEYS AND BLOOD-FORMING ORGANS.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE ARE PRE-EXISTING
RENAL, HEPATIC, HEMATOLOGIC, RESPIRATORY AND SKIN CONDITIONS
SUCH AS ASTHMA, EMPHYSEMA AND DERMATITIS; PRE-EXISTING LIVER
AND KIDNEY CONDITIONS. |
|
| Emergency
First Aid Procedures: |
Inhalation:
REMOVE FROM THE
AREA TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING, CLEAR THE AIRWAY AND
START MOUTH TO MOUTH ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. GET IMMEDIATE
MEDICAL ATTENTION. |
Eye Contact:
RINSE THE EYES WITH
WATER. REMOVE ANY CONTACT LENSES AND CONTINUE FLUSHING WITH
PLENTY OF WATER FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF
IRRITATION DEVELOPS. |
Skin Contact:
WASH AFFECTED AREAS
WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF SOAP AND WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. REMOVE
CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF
IRRITATION PERSISTS. WASH CLOTHING AND CLEAN SHOES BEFORE
REUSE. |
Ingestion:
GIVE 3 TO 4 GLASSES
OF WATER, BUT DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF VOMITING OCCURS, GIVE
FLUIDS AGAIN. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF DISCOMFORT
OCCURS. |
Notes to Physician:
CHLORINATED
HYDROCARBONS MAY SENSITIZE THE HEART TO EPINEPHRINE AND OTHER
CIRCULATNG CATECHOLAMINES SO THAT ARRHYTHMIAS MAY OCCUR.
CAREFUL CONSIDERATION OF THIS POTENTIAL ADVERSE EFFECT SHOULD
PRECEDE ADMINISTRATION OF EPINEPHRINE OR OTHER CARDIAC
STIMULANTS AND THE SELECTION OF
BRONCHODILATORS. | |

TUMORIGENIC DATA
IHL-RAT TCLO:
3500 PPM/6H/2Y-I 3.
METHYLENE CHLORIDE HAS BEEN
EVALUATED FOR POSSIBLE CANCER CAUSING EFFECTS IN LABORATORY
ANIMALS. INHALATION STUDIES AT CONCENTRATIONS OF 2000 AND 4000
PPM INCREASED THE INCIDENCE OF MALIGNANT LIVER AND LUNG TUMORS
IN MICE. THREE INHALATION STUDIES OF RATS HAVE SHOWN INCREASED
INCIDENCE OF BENIGN MAMMARY GLAND TUMORS IN FEMALE RATS AT
CONCENTRATIONS OF 500 PPM AND ABOVE AND INCREASES IN BENIGN
MAMMARY GLAND TUMORS IN MALES AT CONCENTRATIONS OF 1500 PPM
AND ABOVE. RATS EXPOSED TO 50 AND 200 PPM VIA INHALATION
SHOWED NO INCREASED INCIDENCE OF TUMORS. MICE AND RATS EXPOSED
BY INGESTION AT LEVELS UP TO 250 MG/KG/DAY LIFETIME AND
HAMSTERS EXPOSED VIA INHALATION TO CONCENTRATIONS UP TO 35OO
PPM LIFETIME DID NOT SHOW AN INCREASED INCIDENCE OF TUMORS.
4.
EPIDEMIOLOGY STUDIES OF 751 HUMANS CHRONICALLY
EXPOSED TO METHYLENE CHLORIDE IN THE WORKPLACE OF WHICH 252
WERE EXPOSED FOR A MINIMUM OF 20 YEARS DID NOT DEMONSTRATE ANY
INCREASE IN DEATHS CAUSED BY CANCER OR CARDIAC PROBLEMS. A
SECOND STUDY OF 2227 WORKERS CONFIRMED THESE RESULTS.
4.
MUTAGENICITY- METHYLENE CHLORIDE HAS BEEN EVALUATED
FOR ITS POTENTIAL TO INDUCE GENOTOXIC EFFECTS FOR BOTH IN VIVO
AND IN VITRO SYSTEMS, WITH MIXED RESULTS. BASED ON THIS
EVIDENCE, METHYLENE CHLORIDE MAY BE CONSIDERED A WEAK MUTAGEN
IN MAMMALIAN SYSTEMS. 4.
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY-
LABORATORY ANIMAL STUDIES ON MICE, RATS AND RABBITS HAVE BEEN
CONDUCTED TO EVALUATE THE POTENTIAL REPRODUCTIVE AND
DEVELOPMENTAL EFFECTS OF METHYLENE CHLORIDE EXPOSURES.
METHLYENE CHLORIDE EXPOSURE HAS NOT BEEN SHOWN TO CAUSE
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS (BIRTH DEFECTS) IN EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS.
