Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES IARC:YES OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:OVER EXPOSURE TO DUST & FUMES MAY
CAUSE MOUTH, EYE & NOSE IRRITATION. PROLONGED OVEREXPOSURE TO
MANGANESE DUST/FUME AFFECTS THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. CHRONIC
OVEREXPOSURE CAN CAUSE MANGANESE POISONI NG. PROLONGED OVEREXPOSURE
TO IRON OXIDE FUME CAN CAUSE SIDEROSIS, OF NON PIGMENTATION OF THE
LUNG.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:SEE INGREDIENTS
Effects of Overexposure:OVER EXPOSURE TO DUST & FUMES MAY CAUSE MOUTH,
EYE & NOSE IRRITATION. PROLONGED/OVEREXPOSURE TO MANGANESE
DUST/FUME AFFECTS THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. CHRONIC/OVEREXPOSURE
CAN CAUSE MANGANESE POISONI NG. PROLONGED/OVEREXPOSURE TO IRON
OXIDE FUME CAN CAUSE SIDEROSIS, OF NON PIGMENTATION OF THE LUNG.
