Summary Comments:
Information on the likely routes of exposure
Inhalation may blur vision. Ingesting may irritate the gastrointestinal tract.
Potential acute health effects
Eye contact: May cause transient eye irritation and discomfort.
Inhalation: Harmful concentrations of vapor do not normally arise except under high temperature or high
atomization. High concentrations of mist may give rise to respiratory irritation.
Skin contact: Nonirritant on incidental contact.
Ingestion: No adverse effects expected, however, large amounts may cause nausea and vomiting.
Symptoms related to the physical, chemical and toxicological characteristics
Eye contact: Eye irritation.
Inhalation: Nausea.
Skin contact: Skin irritation.
Ingestion: Irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, nausea and vomiting.
Potential chronic health effects (Propylene glycol)
Carcinogenicity: Not Classifiable as a Human Carcinogen.
Mutagenicity: Negative for genotoxicity using both in vitro and in vivo tests.
Teratogenicity: Results from studies in pregnant rats, mice, hamsters and rabbits demonstrate that
propylene glycol is not teratogenic or fetotoxic.
Developmental effects: Results from studies in pregnant rats, mice, hamsters and rabbits demonstrate that
propylene glycol is not teratogenic or fetotoxic
Fertility effects: No data available.
