Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation:
Adverse health effects from DMF vapors and spray mists in poorly ventilated areas may include irritation of the mucous membranes of the nose, throat, respiratory tract and symptoms of headache and nausea. The toxicological properties of the kit components have not been fully defined. Limit exposure to material.
Ingestion:
Sulfuric acid is corrosive and may cause severe burning pain, in the mouth, throat, and abdomen followed by vomiting and diarrhea. Asphyxia may occur from swelling of the throat. Perforation the esophagus and stomach may occur.
Skin Contact:
Skin contact with sulfuric acid may cause severe irritation and pain, burns and vesiculation.
Eye Contact:
Eye exposure to concentrated sulfuric acid may cause severe damage often leading to blindness Dilute solutions produce more transient effects from which recovery may be complete. Exposure to the mist may cause eye irritation.
Chronic Exposure:
No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Respiratory system disease.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Prompt action is essential.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Eye Contact:
In case of eye contact, immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Fire:
Not expected to be a fire hazard.
Explosion:
None identified.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Media suitable to extinguish the supporting or surrounding fire.
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.
Flush area with flooding amounts of water. (Use caution)
Store at 2 - 8C. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (vapors, liquid); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
Airborne Exposure Limits:
For Sulfuric Acid:
- OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) -
1 mg/m3 (TWA)
- ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV) -
1 mg/m3(TWA), 3 mg/m3 (STEL), A2 - suspected human carcinogen for sulfuric acid contained in strong inorganic acid mists.
N,N,-Dimethylformamide:
-OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL):
10 ppm (TWA) skin
-ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV):
10 ppm (TWA) skin, Group A4: not classifiable as a human carcinogen.
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, wear a supplied air, full-facepiece respirator, airlined hood, or full-facepiece self-contained breathing apparatus. Breathing air quality must meet the requirements of the OSHA respiratory protection standard (29CFR1910.134). This substance has questionable warning properties. Where respirators are required, you must have a written program covering the basic requirements in the OSHA respirator standard. These include training, fit testing, medical approval, cleaning, maintenance, cartridge change schedules, etc. See 29CFR1910.134 for details.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

Incompatibilities:
For Sulfuric Acid: Water, potassium chlorate, potassium perchlorate, potassium permanganate, sodium, lithium, bases, organic material, halogens, metal acetylides, oxides and hydrides, metals (yields hydrogen gas), strong oxidizing and reducing agents and many other reactive substances. For Dimethylformamide: Bromine, carbon tetrachloride, chromic anhydride, 2,5-dimethylpyrrole, phosphorus oxychloride, hexachlorobenzene, magnesium nitrate, methylene diisocyanate, phosphorus trioxide, triethyl aluminum, organic nitrates, acidic and alkaline materials, and other halogenated compounds.

For Tris: Copper, brass, aluminum, and oxidizing agents.
Conditions to Avoid:
Heat.
