Massive contact <br />with damaged skin or of material sufficiently hot to bum skin may result <br />in absorption of potential lethal amounts. <br />INGESTION: Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be moderate. <br />Excessive exposure may cause central nervous system effects, <br />t~tdiapulmoaary effects (metabolic aridasis), and kidney tailure. Small <br />amounu swallowed incidental to normal handling operations are not <br />likely to cattle injury; however, swallowing amowu larger than that may <br />cause serious injury, even death. ' <br />INHALATION: At room temperature, exposures to vapors are minimal <br />due to physical properties; highs temperatures may generate vapor levels <br />sufficient to cause adverse effau. <br />SYSTEMIC (OTHER TARGET ORGAN) EFFECTS: Repeated <br />excessive exposures may cause severe kidney and also liver and <br />gastrointestinal effects. Signs and symptoms of excessive expostue may <br />be cwtral nervous systao effects Signs and symptoms of excessive <br />exposure may >x nausea and/or vomiting. Signs and symptoms of <br />excesave exposure may be anesthetic a narcotic effects. 06servations in <br />animals iadude formation of bladder stones a@er repeated oral doses of <br />ethylene glycol. Reports of kidney failure and death in burn patients <br />suggest the ethylene glycol may have been a loos. The use of topical <br />applications cwtaining this material may not be appropriate in severely <br />burned patients a individuals with impaired renal fandim. <br />CANCER INFORMATION: Based am data G«n long-term animal <br />studies, ethylene glycol is not believed to pose a carcinogenic risk to man. <br />TERATOLOGY (BIRTH DEFECTS): Ezpasure to ethylene glycol <br />has caused birth defects in laboratory animals only at doses toxic to the <br />mother. <br />REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS: Ethylene glycol has nm interfered with <br />reprodudian in animal studies except az very high doses. <br />a FIRST,IID,NEASUSES <br />Enure physician has access to this MSDS. <br />Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with large amounu of water for IS <br />minutes, lifting lower and upper lids.
