Material Safety Data Sheet

Benedict's Reagent Qualitative Solution

ACC# 90749

Section 1 - Chemical Product and Company Identification

MSDS Name: Benedict's Reagent Qualitative Solution Catalog Numbers: S71369, S71369-1, S713691ND Synonyms: Benedict's Sugar Test Reagent. Company Identification: Fisher Scientific 1 Reagent Lane Fair Lawn, NJ 07410 For information, call: 201-796- Emergency Number: 201-796- For CHEMTREC assistance, call: 800-424- For International CHEMTREC assistance, call: 703-527-

Section 3 - Hazards Identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW

Appearance: clear light-blue liquid.

Warning! Harmful if swallowed. May cause allergic skin reaction. May cause blood abnormalities. May

cause severe eye and skin irritation with possible burns. May cause respiratory and digestive tract irritation and possible burns. May cause adverse reproductive effects. May cause liver and kidney damage. Target Organs: Blood, kidneys, liver.

Potential Health Effects Eye: May result in corneal injury. Contact with eyes may cause severe irritation, and possible eye burns. Contact with the eye may cause conjunctivitis, edema of the eyelids, and ulceration and turbidity of cornea. Skin: May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material. Contact with the skin may cause severe irritation and necrosis. May produce eczematoid contact dermatitis. Ingestion: Ingestion of large amounts of copper salts may cause bloody stools and vomit, low blood pressure, jaundice and coma. Ingestion of sodium citrate may produce alkalosis and may cause tetany or depress the heart by decreasing the calcium level of the blood. Ingestion may produce corrosion of the GI tract, vomiting, diarrhea, circulatory collapse, and death. Ingestion of copper compounds may produce systemic toxic effects to the kidney and liver and central nervous excitation followed by depression. Inhalation: Inhalation of fumes may cause metal fume fever, which is characterized by flu-like symptoms with metallic taste, fever, chills, cough, weakness, chest pain, muscle pain and increased white blood cell count. May produce local necrosis of the mucous membranes.

Chronic: Repeated exposure may cause sensitization dermatitis. Individuals with Wilson's disease are unable to metabolize copper. Thus, copper accumulates in various tissues and may result in liver, kidney, and brain damage. Chronic copper poisoning in man is recognized in the form of Wilson's disease. May cause allergic skin reaction in some individuals.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures

Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid immediately. Skin: Get medical aid immediately. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately. Inhalation: Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask. Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Extinguishing Media: Substance is nonflammable; use agent most appropriate to extinguish surrounding fire. Flash Point: Not available. Autoignition Temperature: Not available. Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available. Upper: Not available. NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 2; Flammability: 0; Instability: 1

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Absorb spill with inert material (e. vermiculite, sand or earth), then place in suitable container. Provide ventilation. Cover with dry earth, dry sand, or other non-combustible material followed with plastic sheet to minimize spreading and contact with water.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage

Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Storage: Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection

Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
