<br />EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBER: 800-992-5994
<br />OTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: This section in-
<br />( dudes possible adverse efleck. which could occur 6
<br />is material is not handfed m the recommendetl man
<br />her.
<br />EYE: May pose skgM temporary eye Irrrktion.
<br />Corneal injury 's unlikely.
<br />' SKIN: Prolorn~ed or repeated contact may cause skk
<br />irdtabon. Probrgetl or hequentN repeated skin coo-
<br />kct may cause allergk skin reactions in sane kldivld-
<br />' oats. Wnh the dilwe mix, no allergb Skin reaction's
<br />expected. Prolonged skin contact is unAkety to resort
<br />in absorpton of harmful amcunk. Repeated skin can
<br />tact may resu8 in absorpton of harmful artorums. The
<br />LDs for skin absorption is >2000 mg/kg (rabbits) and
<br />>5000 nx,7/kg (rats).
<br />INGESTION: Low toxicity 8 swalbwed. The oral LDse
<br />for rats is 1581 mg/kg (males) and 1338 mg/kg (fe-
<br />males). Small artaunis swalbwed incidental to rar-
<br />mal handling operations are not likely b cause injury:
<br />however, swallowing larger amounk may cause injury.
<br />Aspiration into the lungs may occur during ingestion a
<br />vomiting, causing lung damage or even death tlue fa
<br />chemical pneumonia.
<br />INHALATION: EzcesSNe exposure may pose inf-
<br />tation bupper respiratory fract (nose and throat).
<br />Kerosene may cause central nervous system effects.
<br />SYSTEMIC (OTHER TARGET ORGAN)EFFECTS:
<br />Triclopyr BEE, in animate, e6ects have been reported
<br />on the folowing organs: Dbod. kklney, and'liver.
<br />CANCER INFORMATION: Triclopyr BEE did riot
<br />pose pricer in kboratory animals. In a lifetime an-
<br />imal dermal carcinogenicity study, an increased irki-
<br />dence of skin tumors was observed when kerosene
<br />was applied at doses that also produced skin kritatbn.
<br />This response was similar to that produced in skin by ',
<br />other types of chronic chemicaUphysipl irritation. No
<br />increase in tumors was observed when ran-irritating
<br />dilutions or kerosene were applied at equivalent doses,
<br />indicating that kerosene is unlikely tq cause skin can
<br />car in the absence of bog-term wntinued skin irrikibn.
<br />In bog-term animal studies with ethylene glycol butyl
<br />ether, small but statistiply significant increases in in
<br />mors were observed in mice but not tau. The effects
<br />are not believed Ic be relevant to humans. If the ma-
<br />terial is hantlkd in accordance with proper industrial
<br />UPDATES AVAILABLE AT WWW.GREENBOOK.NE7
<br />handling, exposures shook! not pose a priinogenb
<br />risk to man.
<br />TERATOLOGY (BIRTH DEFECTS): For tricbpyr BEE.
<br />birth defects are unlikey. Exposures having no effect
<br />on the mother should have no effect on the Cetus. Did
<br />not cause birth defects in animals: other eBecLS were
<br />seen in the fetus Doty at doses which caused toxic
<br />e6ects to the norther.
<br />REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS: Triclopyr BEE, in lebwa-
<br />tory animal studies, e6ects on reproduction nave been
<br />seen only at doses that producetl significant toxicity a
<br />the parent animals.
<br />4. FIRST AID:
<br />EYES: Flush eyes thoroughly with water for several
<br />minutes. Remove contact lenses after initial 1-2 min
<br />ores and wntinue Flushing for several minutes. If af-
<br />feck occur, consult a physickn, preferaby an ophlhaF
<br />mobgteL
<br />SKIN: Wash skin with plenty of water.
<br />INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. Call a pnySiClan
<br />and/or transpoA to emergency facility immediatey.
<br />INHALATION: Move to fresh air. l} tort breathing, give
<br />artifickl respiration, If breathing 's tlifficus, oxygen
<br />should be administered by qualified personnel. Call
<br />a Dhysbkn or Vansport to a medical facility.
<br />NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: The decsbn of whether to to-
<br />tluce vomking or not should be made by a physician.
<br />K lavage s pertormed, suggest endotracheal and/or
<br />esophageal wntrol, Danger Vom lung aspiration must
<br />be weighed against toxkily when considedng emptying
<br />the stomach. Na specific antidok. Treatment or ex-
<br />posure should be directed at the conbol of symptoms
<br />and the clinical wndition of the patient
