3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
This product contains nineteen components which are clear, colorless solutions. The primary hazard associated with these solutions is irritation of contaminated eyes and skin or the generation of irritating vapors when solutions are heated. In the event of fire, this product will not contribute significant additional hazards.
SYMPTOMS OF OVER-EXPOSURE BY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE:
No adverse health effects should occur from routine use of this material in the manner specified by the manufacturer’s instructions. The only likely symptom of exposure would be reddening or inflammation after accidental injection. The potential health effects of the individual components are as described below:
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION DESCRIBES THE EXPECTED HEALTH HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPONENT SOLUTIONS:
BIOHAZARD The donors for the DNA control sample were tested for infectious agents and found to be negative. No testing methods, however, can offer complete assurance of the absence of infectious agents. Products of human origin, therefore, should be handled in a manner consistent with the possibility that an infectious agent may be present.
INHALATION Inhalation of a vapor, mists, or dusts of this product may cause mild irritation. Symptoms are generally alleviated upon breathing fresh air.
CONTACT WITH SKIN or EYES Contact with the skin or eyes may cause mild irritation, which is alleviated upon rinsing.
SKIN ABSORPTION Avoid contact with Dimethyl Sulfoxide solutions containing toxic substances with unknown toxicological properties. Dimethyl Sulfoxide is readily absorbed through the skin and may carry such substances into the body.
INGESTION Ingestion of the product’s components may cause gastric distress.
INJECTION Injection of the product’s components may cause local reddening, tissue swelling, and discomfort.

HEALTH EFFECTS OR RISKS FROM EXPOSURE: An Explanation in Lay Terms. These solutions are not known to cause significant acute or chronic health effects.
Acute Beyond mild irritation of the skin or eyes, contact with this product does not usually cause acute health effects.
Chronic This product is not known to cause any significant chronic health effects.
