Harmful if swallowed. Causes eye and skin irritation and possible burns. Causes digestive<br \/> and respiratory tract irritation with possible burns. Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air).<br \/> Severe marine pollutant.<br \/> Target Organs: Blood, kidneys, liver.<br \/> Potential Health Effects<br \/> Eye: Exposure to particulates or solution may cause conjunctivitis, ulceration, and corneal<br \/> abnormalities. Causes eye irritation and possible burns.<br \/> Skin: Causes skin irritation and possible burns.<br \/> Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause severe gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea,<br \/> vomiting and possible burns. Ingestion of large amounts of copper salts may cause bloody stools and<br \/> vomit, low blood pressure, jaundice and coma. Ingestion of copper compounds may produce<br \/> systemic toxic effects to the kidney and liver and central nervous excitation followed by depression.<br \/> Inhalation: May cause ulceration and perforation of the nasal septum if inhaled in excessive<br \/> quantities. Causes respiratory tract irritation with possible burns.<br \/> Chronic: May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause anemia and other blood cell abnormalities.<br \/> Individuals with Wilson\ufffd\ufffd\ufffds disease are unable to metabolize copper. Thus, copper accumulates in<br \/> various tissues and may result in liver, kidney, and brain damage. Adverse reproductive effects have<br \/> been reported in animals. Laboratory experiments have resulted in mutagenic effects. Chronic<br \/> copper poisoning in man is recognized in the form of Wilson\ufffd\ufffd\ufffds disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 4 \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd First Aid Measures<\/strong><br \/> Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the<br \/> upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.<br \/> Skin: Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing<br \/> contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse.<br \/> Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.<br \/> Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately.<br \/> Inhalation: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give<br \/> oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply<br \/> artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask.<br \/> Notes to Physician: Individuals with Wilson\ufffd\ufffd\ufffds disease are more susceptible to chronic copper<br \/> poisoning.<br \/> Antidote: The use of d-Penicillamine as a chelating agent should be determined by qualified medical<br \/> personnel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 5 \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Fire Fighting Measures<\/strong><br \/> General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand,<br \/> MSHA\/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear.

Avoid runoff<br \/> into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately, observing<br \/> precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide<br \/> ventilation. U.S. regulations require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in excess of<br \/> reportable quantities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 7 \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Handling and Storage<\/strong><br \/> Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.<br \/> Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with<br \/> eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid breathing dust.<br \/> Storage: Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from<br \/> incompatible substances. Store protected from moisture.<br \/> Section 8 \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Exposure Controls, Personal Protection<br \/> Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash<br \/> facility and a safety shower.
