TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Clay:
Oral LD50 (Rat) >5000 mg/kg
Dermal LD50 (Rabbit) >5000mg/kg
Nitrogen
Simple asphyxiant
Specific Target Organ Toxicity (STOT) – single exposure
Monoammonium Phosphate: Available data indicates this component is not expected to cause target
organ effects after a single exposure.
Ammonium Sulfate: Available data indicates this component is not expected to cause target organ effects
after a single exposure.
Nitrogen: Exposure to nitrogen gas at high concentrations can cause suffocation by reducing oxygen
available for breathing. Breathing very high concentrations can cause dizziness, shortness of breath,
unconsciousness or asphyxiation.
Specific Target Organ Toxicity (STOT) – repeat exposure
Monoammonium Phosphate: Available data indicates this component is not expected to cause target
organ effects after repeat exposure.
Ammonium Sulfate: Available data indicates this component is not expected to cause target organ effects
after repeat exposure.
Serious Eye damage/Irritation
Monoammonium Phosphate: Not irritating (rabbit)
Ammonium Sulfate: Not irritating (rabbit)
Mica: Not irritating (rabbit)
Skin Corrosion/Irritation
Monoammonium Phosphate: Not irritating in rabbit test study
Ammonium Sulfate: Not irritating (rabbit)
Mica: Not irritating (rabbit)
Respiratory or Skin Sensitization
Monoammonium Phosphate: Not skin sensitizing based on test (Mouse local lymphnode assay (LLNA))
on an analogous compound
Ammonium Sulfate: Not sensitizing in Guinea pig maximisation test
Carcinogenicity
Mica may contain small quantities of quartz (crystalline silica) as an impurity. Prolonged exposure to
respirable crystalline silica dust at concentrations exceeding the occupational exposure limits may
increase the risk of developing a disabling lung disease known as silicosis. IARC has classified Silica
Dust, Crystalline, in the form of quartz or cristobalite as 1 (carcinogenic to humans).
Germ Cell Mutagenicity
Monoammonium Phosphate: Not mutagenic in the mouse lymphoma cells in mammalian cell gene
mutation assay
Ammonium Sulfate: Negative results in Ames Test, in vitro mammalian chromosome aberration test, and
mammalian cell gene mutation assay.
