First aid measures
Inhalation：Remove the victim to fresh air, and make him blow his noseand gargle.

Skin contact：Wash the affected areas under running water.

Eye contact：Wash the affected areas under running water for at least 15
minutes. If necessary, get medical treatment.

Ingestion：Rinse mouth with water. Give the victim one or two glasses ofwater or milk, do not induce vomiting. Get medical treatment assoon as possible.

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

5.

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

Prohibited extinguishing media：None
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.
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：Wear breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures－ 4/9 －No. DEFC0506AQUALYTE KF 1

Cautions for personnel：Wear proper equipment and avoid contact with skin andinhalation of vapor. Keep personnel removed from and upwindof fire. Shut off all sources of ignition. Keep away personnel
except for authorized ones from spillage area by stretchingropes.
Cautions for environment：Attention should be given not to cause damage to theenvironment by flowing of spillage to rivers. In case of thedilution of copious water, do not cause damage to theenvironment by untreated wastewater.
Removal measure：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.

7.

Cautions of handling and storage
Handling
Engineering measures：Wear proper equipment not to contact with skin or inhale thevapor. Fire is strictly prohibited.
Ventilate well at working places.
Cautions for safety handling：Use with an enclosed system or a local exhaust ventilation.
Cautions：Do not allow contact with oxidizing substances.

Storage
Adequate storage condition：Store in a dark, cool place and tightly closed.
Safety adequate container materials：Glass, fluorine resin, stainless steel
Do not use polyvinyl chloride resin, polystyrene.

Skin corrosiveness/irritation：Causes severe skin burns and eye damage(category 1C)
Since imidazole causes corrosivity to the skin, it was classified
into category 1C.
Serious eye damage/eye irritation：Causes serious eye damage (category 1)
Since the solution causes severe irritation to the eyes, it wasclassified into category 1.
Respiratory sensitization or Skin sensitization：Respiratory sensitization : Not possible to classify because ofinsufficient data.
May cause an allergic skin reaction (category 1)
Since iodine is listed in the 2nd group of theskin sensitization
substance of the Japanese Industrial Hygiene Academic
Society's recommendation for acceptable density limit, theclassification is set to category 1.
Mutagenicity：Not possible to classify because of insufficient data.

Carcinogenic effects ：Not possible to classify because of insufficient dataEffects on the reproductive system－ 7/9 －

：Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child(category 2)
Since 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethanol may cause reproductive anddevelopmental toxicity, the classification is set to category 2.
Specific target organ systemic toxicity single exposure：Cause damage to organs (respiratory organs)(category 1)
May cause damage to organs (nervous system)(category 2)
It is unlikely that the product generates sulfur dioxide, in theinhalation exposure test of sulfur dioxide using guinea pigs
dogs, rabbits, and rats, airway mucosa irritation, increased
airway resistance and respiratory ciliary loss are seen by theconcentration of the guidance value of category 1, and that
decreases respiratory function, such as an increase in airway
resistance was seen also in the inhalation exposure test in
humans. the classification is set to category 1(respiratoryorgans).
Specific target organ systemic toxicity repeated exposure：Cause damage to organs (respiratory organs) through prolonged
or repeated exposure(category 1)
May cause damage to organs (Thyroid gland) through prolonged
or repeated exposure(category 2)
It is unlikely that the product generates sulfur dioxide, in theinhalation exposure test of sulfur dioxide using rats, and guinea
pigs, pneumonia and bronchitis were observed with theconcentration in category 1 guidance value range. it wasclassified category 1(respiratory organs). As the description
about iodine that the thyroid disease (hypothyroidism,hyperfunction, or thyroiditis) is caused by ingestion in human,the classification is set to category 1 (thyroid gland). Basedon the concentrations of sulfur dioxide and iodine in theproduct, it was classified into category 1 (respiratory organs),category 2 (thyroid gland).
Aspiration hazard：Not possible to classify because of insufficient data.
