Toxicological
information
Inhalation
: Practically non-toxic in experiments conducted on animals Forane 134a, 32, 125. No rat mortality at 500000
ppm/4h. As with other volatile aliphatic halogenated compounds, with the accumulation of vapours and/or the inhalation of
large quantities, the product can cause: loss of consciousness and heart problems aggravated by stress and lack of oxygen;
risk of death.
Contact with skin
: Frostbite possible from splashes of liquefied gas.
Chronic toxicity
: Studies on extended inhalation in animals have not highlighted any sub-chronic toxic effect (rat/3 months/
Inhalation:50000ppm)
Specific effects
: Genotoxicity, according to experimental data available Forane 134a, 32, 125 NOT Genotoxic
Carcinogenic effect
: Forane 134a experiments on animals have not demonstrated a clear cancerogenous effect (rat /oral
inhalation)
Toxicity for reproduction
: Foetal development Forane 134a, 32, 125 according to available data there are no toxic effects
for foetal development. Fertility, according to available data for animals: Forane 134a no effect on fertility (mice/inhalation)
