AQUALYTE Water Standard 1

Ingestion：Give the victim water or salt water and make him vomit. Get
medical attention.

Protection for first aid person：Savers wear proper protective equipment like rubber gloves,
goggles.

5.

Fire fighting measures
Extinguishing media：Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, dry sand, foam

Prohibited extinguishing media：Water spray
Particular fire fighting：Move containers from fire area if it can be done without risk,
if not possible, apply water from a safe distance to cool andprotect surrounding area.
Conduct operations from upwind.
Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide or dry sand should be
used for small fires. Foam extinguisher is effective for a large
scale fire.
Protection for firefighters：Firefighters should wear protective equipment.

6.

Accidental release measures
Cautions for personnel：Wear proper equipment and avoid contact with skin andinhalation of vapor. Conduct operations from upwind andevacuate people downwind. Shut off all sources of ignition.
Keep away personnel except for authorized ones from spillage
area by stretching ropes.
Cautions for environment：Attention should be given not to cause damage to theenvironment by flowing of spillage to rivers.
Methods and Equipment for Containment and Cleaning up
For containment：Absorb spill with inert material (e.g., diatomaceous earth, sand)and flush residual area with copious amounts of water.

Prevention of second accident：Remove nearby sources of ignition and prepare extinguishingmedia.

11. Toxicological information
Acute toxicity (oral) ：No classification(as anisole)rat LD50=3700mg/kg(as diethylene glycol dimethyl ether)rat LD50=4760mg/kg
Acute toxicity (dermal)：Classification not possible
Acute toxicity (inhalation)：Classification not possible (vapor, dust, mist)－ 5/8 －No. DEFC0516

AQUALYTE Water Standard 1(as diethylene glycol dimethyl ether)rat LC50=24mg/L/4H(as mist)
Skin corrosion/irritation：Although diethylene glycol dimethyl ether was classified out ofcategory. but there is no data of Anisole, so it is impossible
to classify.
Serious eye damage/eye irritation：Causes eye irritation
As the diethylene glycol dimethyl ether causes mild irritation ofrabbit eyes, the classification is set in category 2B.
Respiratory sensitization：Classification not possible
Skin sensitization：Classification not possible
Although diethylene glycol dimethyl ether was classified out ofcategory. but there is no data of anisole, so it is impossible
to classify.

Germ cell mutagenicity：Classification not possible
Although diethylene glycol dimethyl ether was classified out ofcategory. but there is no data of anisole, so it is impossible
to classify.
Carcinogenicity：Classification not possible

Reproductive toxicity ：Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child
There was no data about anisole. but diethylene glycol dimethyl
ether has following data: decrease in fertility was observed in
reproduction test by inhalation exposure of male rats, and rateof deformation of offspring was low, but increase in resorptionof fetuses was observed at developmental toxicity test byinhalation exposure (100% at 400ppm) in organogenesis periodof rats.
Deformation of fingers and legs of offspring, exencephaly,
malformation of bones were observed at the dose causing
death of parent animals in developmental toxicity test by oral
administration in organogenesis period of mice, moreover
resorption of fetuses and deformation of bones were observedat the dose causing toxicity of parent animals in reproduction
test using rabbits. From the above results, it was classified
into category 2.
