Inhalation Risk: A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C. Effects of Short-Term Exposure: The substance is irritating to the eyes , the skin and the respiratory tract . Inhalation of the vapour may cause lung oedema (see Notes). The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system and liver . ingle TOST cat 1lung); 13751000 mulations (tremors and convulsions) may occur), Added at update 2007.; tory distress without lower respiratory tract irritation has been seen in exposed humans); Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure: The substance may have effects on the blood , resulting in anaemia .

It is strongly advised that this substance does not enter the environment. N O T E S Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered. The odour warning when the exposure limit value is exceeded is insufficient. Do NOT take working clothes home. Rinse contaminated clothes with plenty of water because of fire hazard.
