SECTION 3 - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
A tan odorless, liquid that:
* Causes eye and skin irritation.
* May produce temporary allergic side effects.
* Is toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms.
ROUTES OF ENTRY: Skin contact
EYES: Causes eye irritation.
SKIN: Causes skin irritation. May produce temporary allergic side effects.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: This product may produce temporary allergic side effects characterized by redness of the eyes, mild bronchial
irritation and redness or rash on exposed skin areas. Persons having allergic reactions should contact a physician.
EFFECTS OF CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE: Repeated excessive dermal exposure may cause marked skin irritation and may increase
the possibility of allergic reactions. Studies on rats and mice have suggested that technical chlorothalonil, when fed at high levels in the diet,
may have oncogenic potential to these laboratory animals. However, neither chlorothalonil nor its metabolites interact with DNA and thus
are not mutagenic. Tumor formation has been related to a non-genotoxic mechanism of action from which threshold levels have been
established on rats and mice. Comprehensive dietary and worker exposure studies have shown exposure levels for humans to be well below
these threshold levels – in addition, surveillance of chlorothalonil plant workers for many years has not demonstrated any increase in
oncogenic potential to humans.
