NFPA Hazard Ratings:

0=Minimal, 1=Slight, 2=Moderate, 3=Serious, 4=Severe

Emergency Overview: Organisms used are non-pathogenic, but can cause infection when in contact with open wounds. These organisms are susceptible to many commonly used antibiotics.

Potential Health Effects:  

• Signs and Symptoms of Acute Overexposure: Eye, skin irritation
• Signs and Symptoms of Chronic overexposure: Dermatitis and skin sensitization
• Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Allergies, dermatitis.
• Ingestion: Ingestion (acute exposure) of ammonium slats may produce nausea, vomiting, gastric irritation. Large doses (over 6 grams) may cause systemic ammonia toxicity. Symptoms may include heavy breathing, blue skin, dulness, restlessness, convulsions or coma. DSP ingestion may result in abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, shock, hypertension, slow pulse, cyanosis, coma and convulsions.
• Inhalation: (Acute) Inhalation may cause throat irritation and coughing. (Chronic) No effects reported in humans.

• Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air
• Ingestion: Give victim water or milk to drink to dilute the product. Get medical advice..
• Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and footwear. Wash skin with soap and water. Wash clothing before reuse.
• Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
• Note to Physician: If patient's immune system is compromised, request antibiotic sensitivity chart from Alken-Murray Corporation by e-mail: clearflo@shentel.net
