AEROSOL®OT-75%Surfactant SDS: 0000006 Date Prepared: 07/23/2014 Page 7 of 11 <br /> Ethanol has acute oral (rat)and dermal(rabbit) LD50 values of 7060 mg/kg and 20,000 mg/kg, respectively. The 10-hour <br /> inhalation LC50 for ethanol in rats is 20,000 ppm (59.4 mg/U4hr). The literature reports a lower 4-hour acute inhalation <br /> (rat) LC50 value of 31,000 mg/m3(31 mg/1). Inhalation overexposure may cause respiratory tract irritation. Ethanol is a <br /> potent teratogen associated with abnormal fetal formation, growth retardation, neurological damage, and behavioral <br /> alterations in children with fetal alcohol syndrome. Chronic ingestion of ethanol may cause damage to the liver, heart and <br /> gastrointestinal tract. In a dominant lethal assay, male mice treated with ethanol over a three day period showed <br /> significant decrease in average litter size along with increased incidence of dead implants. Ethanol is reported to have <br /> shown positive results in in vivo and in vitro screening tests for mutagenicity. Direct contact with ethanol may cause <br /> moderate eye irritation and mild skin irritation. Ethanol may cause central nervous system depression that causes stupor, <br /> coma and eventually death if ingested in excessive quantities. The literature shows that due to synergistic and <br /> potentiating effects, the toxicity of ethanol may be enhanced by exposure to halogenated hydrocarbons ang Manganese. <br /> 12.
