VI. Health Hazard Data
Exposure Limits: Skin-TLV 50ppm
Effects of Overexposure: Dry skin, stings eyes. Harmful if swallowed.
VII. Physiological Effects Summary
Acute:
Eyes: Irritant to eyes.
Skin: Will dry skin in concentrated forms.
Respiratory System: Not determined (avoid breathing mist).
Chronic: Exposure of rats by inhalation to 2-BE caused hemolysis, hemoglobinuria (blood in the urine) and a slight increase in liver weight. Other species, including man, were less sensitive or more resistant to hemolysis. The hemolytic effects in rats was transitory and/or reversible and not considered to be relevant to human health. Inhalation exposure of pregnant rabbits caused some lethality to the dam and fetus at 200ppm, but there were no effects at 100ppm and below. Inhalation exposure to pregnant rats caused irritancy to the dams and related fetotoxicity at 200 and 100ppm, but there were no effects at 50ppm and below. 2-BE did not cause birth defects in either study.
VIII. Precautions for Safe Handling
For general personal hygiene, wash hands thoroughly after handling material. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep from freezing. If frozen, thaw and agitate before use. Use in well ventilated area.
