 3. Hazards Identification

Emergency Overview: The microorganisms used in this product are BioSafety Class 1 microorganisms, as defined by the Centers for Disease Control as unlikely to cause disease in healthy humans or animals. However, persons with compromised immune systems should avoid contact with open wounds and/or breathing dust or mist from manufacturing processes. These organisms are susceptible to many commonly used antibiotics, and Alken-Murray is willing to supply antibiotic sensitivity information to any doctor or import health authority requesting it. Because surfactants are included, primary skin irritation under 29CFR 1910.1200 is considered possible, as is true of many shampoos that contain the same surfactants. Although bacterial cultures included in this product were grown in a sterile aqueous medium containing a variety of nutrients, including corn syrup solids, digests of soybean and/or skim milk, glucose or other sugars, vegetable oils, including olive oil, yeast extract, mineral salts, etc., the concentrations of these residual nutrients are believed to be below levels capable of triggering irritation.
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: May result in abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting.

• Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. Aid in breathing, if necessary. Seek medical attention if breathing does not return to normal.
• Ingestion: Give victim water or milk to drink to dilute the product. Induce vomiting only if advised by physician or poison control center.
• Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and footwear. Wash skin with soap and water. Wash clothing before reuse. Apply cortisone cream if allergic reaction occurs.
• 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: msds@alken-murray.com
