| 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
INHALATION:
REMOVE THE VICTIM TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED ADMINISTER
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, HAVE MEDICAL PERSONNEL
ADMINISTER OXYGEN. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
SKIN CONTACT:
REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. IMMEDIATELY WASH CONTACTED AREA THOROUGHLY
WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
EYE CONTACT:
IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION PERSISTS.
INGESTION:
SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. IMMEDIATELY CALL LOCAL POISON CONTROL
CENTER OR GO TO AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO
OR INDUCE VOMITING IN AN UNCONSCIOUS OR DROWSY PERSON.
MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS:
MAY CAUSE EYE IRRITATION. INHALATION OF MISTS MAY CAUSE NOSE AND THROAT
IRRITATION AND NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS. INGESTION MAY CAUSE ABDOMINAL
DISCOMFORT OR PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS, MALAISE,
BLURRING OF VISION, IRRITABILITY, BACK PAIN, DECREASE IN URINE OUTPUT,
KIDNEY FAILURE, AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS.
INDICATION OF IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT, IF NEEDED:
SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR LARGE INGESTIONS.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN:
THE PRINCIPAL TOXIC EFFECTS OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL, WHEN SWALLOWED, ARE KIDNEY
DAMAGE AND METABOLIC ACIDOSIS. THE COMBINATION OF METABOLIC ACIDOSIS, AN
OSMOL GAP AND OXALATE CRYSTALS IN THE URINE IS EVIDENCE OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL
POISONING. PULMONARY EDEMA WITH HYPOXEMIA HAS BEEN DESCRIBED IN A NUMBER OF
PATIENTS FOLLOWING POISONING WITH ETHYLENE GLYCOL. RESPIRATORY SUPPORT WITH
MECHANICAL VENTILATION MAY BE REQUIRED. THERE MAY BE CRANIAL NERVE
INVOLVEMENT IN THE LATE STAGES OF TOXICITY FROM SWALLOWED ETHYLENE GLYCOL.
IN PARTICULAR, EFFECTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED INVOLVING THE SEVENTH, EIGHTH,
AND NINTH CRANIAL NERVES, PRESENTING WITH BILATERAL FACIAL PARALYSIS,
DIMINISHED HEARING AND DYSPHAGIA.
ETHANOL IS ANTIDOTAL AND ITS EARLY ADMINISTRATION MAY BLOCK THE FORMATION OF
NEPHROTOXIC METABOLITES OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL IN THE LIVER. THE OBJECTIVE IS TO
RAPIDLY ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN A BLOOD ETHANOL LEVEL OF APPROXIMATELY 100
MG/DL BY GIVING A LOADING DOSE OF ETHANOL FOLLOWED BY A MAINTENANCE DOSE.
INTRAVENOUS ADMINISTRATION OF ETHANOL IS THE PREFERRED ROUTE. ETHANOL BLOOD
LEVELS SHOULD BE CHECKED FREQUENTLY. HEMODIALYSIS MAY BE REQUIRED. 4-METHYL
PYRAZOLE (FOMEPIZOLE(R*)), A POTENT INHIBITOR OF ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE, HAS
BEEN USED THERAPEUTICALLY TO DECREASE THE METABOLIC CONSEQUENCES OF ETHYLENE
GLYCOL POISONING.
FOMEPIZOLE(R*) IS EASIER TO USE CLINICALLY THAN ETHANOL, DOES NOT CAUSE
CNS DEPRESSION OR HYPOGLYCEMIA AND REQUIRES LESS MONITORING THAN ETHANOL.
ADDITIONAL THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES WHICH MAY DECREASE THE ADVERSE
CONSEQUENCES OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL METABOLISM ARE THE ADMINISTRATION OF BOTH
THIAMINE AND PYRIDOXINE. AS THERE ARE COMPLICATED AND SERIOUS OVERDOSES,
WE RECOMMEND YOU CONSULT WITH THE TOXICOLOGISTS AT YOUR POISON CONTROL
CENTER.
| 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES | |
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
FOR LARGE FIRES, USE ALCOHOL TYPE OR ALL-PURPOSE FOAMS. FOR SMALL FIRES, USE
WATER SPRAY, CARBON DIOXIDE OR DRY CHEMICAL.
SPECIFIC HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE CHEMICAL:
A SOLID STREAM OF WATER OR FOAM DIRECTED INTO HOT, BURNING LIQUID CAN CAUSE
FROTHING. BURNING MAY PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE AND CARBON DIOXIDE.

| 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION | |
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
ACUTE HAZARDS:
INHALATION:
MAY CAUSE IRRITATION OF THE NOSE AND THROAT WITH HEADACHE, PARTICULARLY FROM
MISTS. HIGH VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS CAUSED, FOR EXAMPLE, BY HEATING THE
MATERIAL
IN AN ENCLOSED AND POORLY VENTILATED WORKPLACE, MAY PRODUCE NAUSEA,
VOMITING,
HEADACHE, DIZZINESS AND IRREGULAR EYE MOVEMENTS.
SKIN CONTACT: NO EVIDENCE OF ADVERSE EFFECTS FROM AVAILABLE INFORMATION.
EYE CONTACT:
LIQUID, VAPORS OR MIST MAY CAUSE DISCOMFORT IN THE EYE WITH PERSISTENT
CONJUNCTIVITIS, SEEN AS SLIGHT EXCESS REDNESS OR CONJUNCTIVA. SERIOUS
CORNEAL
INJURY IS NOT ANTICIPATED.
INGESTION:
MAY CAUSE ABDOMINAL DISCOMFORT OR PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIZZINESS,
DROWSINESS, MALAISE, BLURRING OF VISION, IRRITABILITY, BACK PAIN, DECREASE
IN URINE OUTPUT, KIDNEY FAILURE, AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS,
INCLUDING
IRREGULAR EYE MOVEMENTS, CONVULSIONS AND COMA. CARDIAC FAILURE AND PULMONARY
EDEMA MAY DEVELOP. SEVERE KIDNEY DAMAGE WHICH MAY BE FATAL MAY FOLLOW THE
SWALLOWING OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL. A FEW REPORTS HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED DESCRIBING
THE DEVELOPMENT OF WEAKNESS OF THE FACIAL MUSCLES, DIMINISHING HEARING, AND
DIFFICULTY WITH SWALLOWING, DURING THE LATE STAGES OF SEVERE POISONING.
CHRONIC EFFECTS:
PROLONGED OR REPEATED INHALATION EXPOSURE MAY PRODUCE SIGNS OF CENTRAL
NERVOUS
SYSTEM INVOLVEMENT, PARTICULARLY DIZZINESS AND JERKING EYE MOVEMENTS.
PROLONGED OR REPEATED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN SENSITIZATION AND AN
ASSOCIATED DERMATITIS IN SOME INDIVIDUALS. ETHYLENE GLYCOL HAS BEEN FOUND TO
CAUSE BIRTH DEFECTS IN LABORATORY ANIMALS. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS FINDING
TO HUMANS HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED. 2-ETHYL HEXANOIC ACID, SODIUM SALT IS
SUSPECTED OF CAUSING DEVELOPMENTAL EFFECTS BASED ON ANIMAL DATA.
CARCINOGENICITY LISTING:
NONE OF THE COMPONENTS OF THESE PRODUCTS IS LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN OR
SUSPECTED CARCINOGEN BY IARC, NTP, ACGIH, OR OSHA.
ACUTE TOXICITY VALUES:
ETHYLENE GLYCOL:
LD50 ORAL RAT: 4700 MG/KG
LD50 SKIN RABBIT: 9530 MG/KG
DIETHYLENE GLYCOL:
LD50 ORAL RAT: 12,565 MG/KG
LD50 SKIN RABBIT: 11,890 MG/KG
SIGNIFICANT LABORATORY DATA WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMAN HEALTH:
ETHYLENE GLYCOL HAS BEEN SHOWN TO PRODUCE DOSE-RELATED TERATOGENIC EFFECTS
IN
RATS AND MICE WHEN GIVEN BY GAVAGE OR IN DRINKING WATER AT HIGH
CONCENTRATIONS
OR DOSES. ALSO, IN A PRELIMINARY STUDY TO ASSESS THE EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE OF
PREGNANT RATS AND MICE TO AEROSOLS AT CONCENTRATIONS 150, 1,000 AND 2,500
MG/M3 FOR 6 HOURS A DAY THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD OF ORGANOGENESIS, TERATOGENIC
EFFECTS WERE PRODUCED AT THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATIONS, BUT ONLY IN MICE. THE
CONDITIONS OF THESE LATTER EXPERIMENTS DID NOT ALLOW A CONCLUSION AS TO
WHETHER THE DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY WAS MEDIATED BY INHALATION OF AEROSOL,
PERCUTANEOUS ABSORPTION OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL FROM CONTAMINATED SKIN, OR
SWALLOWING OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL AS A RESULT OF GROOMING THE WETTED COAT. IN A
FURTHER STUDY, COMPARING EFFECTS FROM HIGH AEROSOL CONCENTRATION BY
WHOLE-BODY
OR NOSE-ONLY EXPOSURE, IT WAS SHOWN THAT NOSE-ONLY EXPOSURE RESULTED IN
MATERNAL TOXICITY (1,000 AND 2,500 MG/M3) AND DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY IN WITH
MINIMAL EVIDENCE OF TERATOGENICITY (2,500 MG/M3). THE NO-EFFECTS
CONCENTRATION
(BASED ON MATERNAL TOXICITY) WAS 500 MG/M3. IN A FURTHER STUDY IN MICE, NO
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS COULD BE PRODUCED WHEN ETHYLENE GLYCOL WAS APPLIED TO
THE
SKIN OF PREGNANT MICE OVER THE PERIOD OF ORGANOGENESIS. THE ABOVE
OBSERVATIONS
SUGGEST THAT ETHYLENE GLYCOL IS TO BE REGARDED AS AN ANIMAL TERATOGEN; THERE
IS CURRENTLY NO AVAILABLE INFORMATION TO SUGGEST THAT ETHYLENE GLYCOL CAUSED
BIRTH DEFECTS IN HUMANS. CUTANEOUS APPLICATION OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL IS
INEFFECTIVE IN PRODUCING DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY; EXPOSURE TO HIGH AEROSOL
CONCENTRATION IS ONLY MINIMALLY EFFECTIVE IN PRODUCING DEVELOPMENTAL
TOXICITY;
THE MAJOR ROUTE FOR PRODUCING DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY IS PERORALLY.
TWO CHRONIC FEEDING STUDIES, USING RATS AND MICE, HAVE NOT PRODUCED ANY
EVIDENCE THAT ETHYLENE GLYCOL CAUSES DOSE-RELATED INCREASES IN TUMOR
INCIDENCE
OR A DIFFERENT PATTERN OF TUMORS COMPARED WITH UNTREATED CONTROLS. THE
ABSENCE
OF CARCINOGENIC POTENTIAL FOR ETHYLENE GLYCOL HAS BEEN SUPPORTED BY NUMEROUS
INVITRO GENOTOXICITY STUDIES SHOWING THAT IT DOES NOT PRODUCE MUTAGENIC OR
CLASTOGENIC EFFECTS.
IN A STUDY OF WISTAR RATS, ADVERSE DEVELOPMENTAL RESULTS WERE REPORTED AT A
DOSE OF 100 MG / KG OF BODY WEIGHT FOR 2-ETHYL HEXANOIC ACID, SODIUM SALT.
THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS LESS THAN 0.2% TOLYTRIAZOLE WHICH HAS DEMONSTRATED
MUTAGENIC ACTIVITY IN A BACTERIAL TEST SYSTEM. A CORRELATION HAS BEEN
ESTABLISHED BETWEEN MUTAGENIC ACTIVITY AND CARCINOGENIC ACTIVITY FOR MANY
CHEMICALS. TOLYTRIAZOLE HAS NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A CARCINOGEN OR PROBABLE
CARCINOGEN BY NTP, IARC, ACGIH, OR OSHA.
