TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
INHALATION:
Finely divided solid.
Avoid exposure to dust.
EYES:
No specific hazard known. May cause temporary irritation.
SKIN:
Low hazard for recommended handling.
INGESTION:
Expected to be a low ingestion hazard.
MUTAGENICITY:
Negative in the Ames test.
CARCINOGENICITY: No carcinogen or potential carcinogen, according to IARC
Monographs, NTP, OSHA(USA) regulation and EU Directive.
CHRONIC EFFECTS: In a study in rats by chronic inhalation exposure to a typical
toner, a mild to moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed
in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16mg/m³) exposure
group, and a minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in
22% of the animals in the middle (4mg/m³) exposure group. But
no pulmonary change was reported in the lowest (1mg/m³)
exposure group, the most relevant level to potential human
exposures.
