Chemical Composition/Ingredients
The GHS is an acronym for The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals. The GHS is a system for standardizing and harmonizing the classification and labelling of chemicals. Chemicals are associated with codes that define their health, physical and environmental hazards.This universal hazard communication system was developed to ensure that employers, employees and consumers are provided with adequate, practical, reliable and comprehensible information on the hazards of chemicals, so that they can take effective preventive and protective measure for their own health and safety.

The GHS classifications for chemicals associated with products in this database may be viewed by selecting the "Advanced" button on the Chemical Ingredients tables. Since this is a work in progress, GHS classifications may not be shown for all chemical ingredients.-

Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview
Danger. Contains Methyl Alcohol (Methanol). Highly flammable liquid and vapour. Toxic if swallowed. Toxic in contact with skin. Toxic if inhaled. Causes damage to eyes and central nervous system. May cause damage to kidneys through prolonged or repeated exposure.
Potential Health Effects
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.
Skin Contact: Prolonged contact with the skin may cause redness and defatting of the skin and absorption of harmful amounts of methanol.
Inhalation: May cause irritation of the nose and throat. High vapor concentrations may produce nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, tingling, numbness and shooting pains in the hands and forearms, and visual disturbances.
Ingestion: Contains methanol and ethylene glycol. May cause abdominal discomfort or pain, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, 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. Visual effects from methanol include blurred vision, double vision, changes in color perception, restriction of visual fields and complete blindness. Cardiac failure and pulmonary edema may develop. Severe kidney damage which may be fatal follows the swallowing of large volumes of ethylene glycol. Signs of renal insufficiency may be delayed 36 to 48 hours post ingestion. 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. With massive overdoses of methanol, liver, kidney and heart muscle injury have been described. There may be a delay of 6-12 hours between swallowing methanol and the onset of signs and symptoms. Ingestion of moderate quantities of methanol also produces metabolic acidosis. 60-200 ml of methanol is a fatal dose for most adults. Ingestion of as little as 10 ml may cause blindness. -
Chronic health effects
From SDS:
Prolonged or repeated inhalation exposure may produce signs of central nervous system involvement, including nausea, vomiting, headache, ringing in the ears, dizziness, vertigo, cloudy and double vision. Prolonged overexposure at levels of 800-1000 ppm may result and in severe eye damage. 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. -
Carcinogenicity
None of the components of these products is listed as a carcinogen or suspected carcinogenby IARC, NTP, ACGIH or OSHA. -

California Prop. 65 Warning
This product contains the following chemicals regulated under California Proposition 65:
Methanol CAS No. 000067-56-1, developmental
Ethylene Glycol CAS No. 000107-21-1, developmental -
First Aid
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists.Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Immediately wash contacted area thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, get medical attention.Inhalation: Remove the victim to fresh air. If breathing has stopped administer artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, have medical personnel administer oxygen. Get immediate medical attention.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.Notes to Physician: The combination of visual disturbances, metabolic acidosis and an osmol gap is evidence of methanol poisoning. Ethanol is antidotal and its early administration may block the formation of toxic metabolites of methanol. The principal toxic effect 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. 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. Hemodialysismay be required. 4-Methyl pyrazole (Fomepizole(R)), a potent inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase, has been used therapeutically to decrease the metabolic consequences of methanol and ethylene glycol poisoning. This antidote is now approved by the F.D.A. and in many cases has replaced ethanol in the treatment of ethylene glycol poisoning. Pulmonary edema with hypoxia 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. As there are complicated and serious overdoses, we recommend you consult with the toxicologists at your poison control center.
