	ACUTE HAZARDS	PREVENTION	FIRE FIGHTING
FIRE & EXPLOSION	Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Risk of fire and explosion if formulations contain flammable/explosive solvents.	NO open flames.	Use water spray, powder, foam, carbon dioxide.

AVOID ALL CONTACT! FIRST AID: USE PERSONAL PROTECTION.
	SYMPTOMS	PREVENTION	FIRST AID
Inhalation	Muscle twitching. Pupillary constriction, muscle cramp, excessive salivation. Sweating. Nausea. Dizziness. Convulsions. Unconsciousness. Laboured breathing.	Use ventilation, local exhaust or breathing protection. Avoid inhalation of mist.	Fresh air, rest. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer immediately for medical attention. See Notes.
Skin	MAY BE ABSORBED! Redness. Pain. Further see Inhalation.	Protective gloves. Protective clothing.	Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Refer immediately for medical attention . See Notes.
Eyes	Redness. Pain.	Wear face shield or eye protection in combination with breathing protection.	First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Ingestion	Abdominal cramps. Diarrhoea. Further see Inhalation.	Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating.	Rinse mouth. Refer immediately for medical attention. See Notes.

EXPOSURE & HEALTH EFFECTS
Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol, through the skin and by ingestion. Effects of short-term exposure The substance is mildly irritating to the eyes and skin. The substance may cause effects on the nervous system. Cholinesterase inhibition. This may result in convulsions and respiratory depression. The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated.	Inhalation risk A harmful contamination of the air will not or will only very slowly be reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C; on spraying or dispersing, however, much faster. Effects of long-term or repeated exposure Cholinesterase inhibition. Cumulative effects are possible. See Acute Hazards/Symptoms. This substance is probably carcinogenic to humans.

EXPOSURE & HEALTH EFFECTS

Routes of exposure
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol, through the skin and by ingestion.

Effects of short-term exposure
The substance is mildly irritating to the eyes and skin. The substance may cause effects on the nervous system. Cholinesterase inhibition. This may result in convulsions and respiratory depression. The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated.

Inhalation risk
A harmful contamination of the air will not or will only very slowly be reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C; on spraying or dispersing, however, much faster.

Effects of long-term or repeated exposure
Cholinesterase inhibition. Cumulative effects are possible. See Acute Hazards/Symptoms. This substance is probably carcinogenic to humans.

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS
TLV: 0.01 mg/m³, as TWA; (skin); A4 (not classifiable as a human carcinogen); BEI issued. MAK: (inhalable fraction): 0.1 mg/m³; peak limitation category: II(2); skin absorption (H); pregnancy risk group: C

ENVIRONMENT
The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment. This substance may be hazardous to the environment. Special attention should be given to birds and bees. This substance does enter the environment under normal use. Great care, however, should be taken to avoid any additional release, for example through inappropriate disposal.

NOTES
Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. Specific treatment is necessary in case of poisoning with this substance; the appropriate means with instructions must be available. Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties. Do NOT take working clothes home.
