Information on the likely routes of exposure
Inhalation may blur vision. Ingesting may irritate the gastrointestinal tract.
Potential acute health effects
Eye contact: Irritating to the eyes.
Inhalation: Acute exposure of humans to ethanol by inhalation or ingestion may result in visual disturbances, such as
blurred or dimness of vision, leading to blindness. Neurological damage, specifically permanent motor dysfunction,
may also result.
Skin contact: Contact of skin with ethanol can produce mild dermatitis in humans.
Ingestion: Tests involving acute exposure of rats, mice, and rabbits have demonstrated ethanol to have low acute
toxicity from oral exposure. May cause nausea, vomiting, dizziness and depression of CNS.
Symptoms related to the physical, chemical and toxicological characteristics
Eye contact: Eye irritation.
Inhalation: Blurred vision.
Skin contact: Skin irritation.
Ingestion: May irritate the gastrointestinal tract, cause nausea, and vomiting.
Potential chronic health effects (Ethanol)
Carcinogenicity: Not Classifiable as a Human Carcinogen.
