Emergency overview: Appearance: Clear, colorless liquid. Flash Point: None, Tag Closed Cup (ASTM D56) Warning! Causes burns of eye, skin, digestive tract, respiratory tract. May cause sensitization. Harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. Aspiration hazard if swallowed - can enter lungs and cause damage. Target Organs: Central nervous system, lungs, respiratory system, eyes, skin Potential Health Effects Eye: Liquid will cause severe and persistent conjunctivitis, including excess redness and swelling of the conjunctiva with profuse discharge. May develop severe corneal injury; permanent impairment of vision possible. Vapor will cause stinging sensations with excess tear production, blinking and redness of the conjunctiva. Seek medical attention immediately. Skin: May cause skin sensitization May cause hives. Brief contact will cause itching with mild to moderate local redness and possible swelling. Prolonged contact may result in pain, severe redness and swelling, with ulceration, tissue destruction and possible bleeding into inflamed area. Contact with glutaraldehyde solutions may result in a harmless yellow or brownish discoloration of the skin. Ingestion: Moderately toxic. May cause moderate to marked irritation and chemical burns of the mouth, throat, esophagus and stomach. May cause discomfort or pain in the chest and abdomen, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, faintness, drowsiness, thirst. Advanced cases may cause weakness, circulatory shock, collapse, coma, or death due to respiratory failure. Aspiration hazard: May cause damage to the lungs. Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract. May cause bleeding from the nose, coughing, chest discomfort and tightness, difficulty breathing, and headache. May cause asthma and shortness of breath. Chronic: Effects may be delayed. May aggravate an existing dermatitis. May cause skin sensitization and allergic reaction.
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Seek immediate medical attention - ophthalmologist recommended. Skin: Immediately flush skin with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes. Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Urgently seek immediate medical attention. Do NOT give anything to drink. Call a poison control center. Oral toxicity of Glutaraldehyde increases with dilution - drinking water can enhance the toxicity. Inhalation: Seek medical attention immediately. Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration by use of oxygen and suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask. Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.
General Information: Flash Point: None, Tag Closed Cup (ASTM D56). Flammable limits: Not determined (aqueous system). Extinguishing Media: Non-flammable. After the water evaporates, the remaining material will burn. Use alcohol-type or all-purpose-type foam applied by manufacturer's recommended technique for large fires. Use CO2 or dry chemical media for small fires. Use self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
General Information: Use proper personal protective e1quipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions listed in the Protective Equipment section. Absorb spill using absorbent, non-combustible material such as sand, earth, or vermiculite. Provide ventilation.
Handling: Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapor. Storage: Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Refrigeration recommended.
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. An eyewash facility and a safety shower should be readily available. Exposure Limits: Chemical Name ACGIH NIOSH OSHA - Final PELs Glutaraldehyde 0.05 ppm Ceiling none listed none listed Water none listed none listed none listed OSHA Vacated PELs: None listed Personal Protective Equipment Eyes: Wear chemical splash goggles and face shield. Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. Respirators: Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or there symptoms are experienced.
