Hazard Rating:Least - 0 Slight - 1 Moderate - 2 High - 3
Extreme - 4
Inhalation:
May cause irritation to the nose, throat and respiratory tract. Breathing of
high vapor concentrations may cause CNS depression, evidenced by dizziness,
light-headedness, headache, nausea, drowsiness, and loss of coordination.
Continued inhalation may result in unconsciousness.
Eye Irritation:
May be irritating to the eyes causing a burning sensation, redness, swelling
and/or blurred vision.
Skin Contact:
May be irritating to the skin causing a burning sensation, redness and/or
swelling. Prolonged or repeated skin contact can cause defatting and drying
of the skin which may result in a burning sensation and a dried, cracked
appearance.
Ingestion:
This material may be harmful or fatal if swallowed. Ingestion may result in
vomiting; aspiration (breathing) of vomitus into lungs must be avoided as even
small quantities may result in aspiration pneumonitis.
Other Health Effects:
Carcinogenic in animal tests. Gasoline has been tested by API in a long-term
inhalation test in mice and rats. There was an increased incidence of liver
cancer in female mice. Male rats had a dose related increase in kidney
tumors. This effect was due to formation of alpha-2u-globulin in the rats.
This material is not formed in humans and is therefore not considered
relevant. It is probable that the material causes cancer in laboratory
animals. Material may adversely effect male reproductive performance based on
testing in laboratory animals.
This material and/or components may cause the following effects:
Developmental Toxicity, Genotoxicity, Immunotoxicity, Reproductive Toxicity
Primary Target Organs:
The following organs and/or organ systems may be damaged by overexposure to
this material and/or its components.
Cardiovascular System, Blood/Blood Forming Organs, Kidney, Liver
Signs and Symptoms:
Irritation as noted above. Aspiration pneumonitis may be evidenced by
coughing, labored breathing and cyanosis (bluish skin); in severe cases death
may occur. Damage to blood-forming organs may be evidenced by: a) easy
fatigability and pallor (RBC), b) decreased resistance to infection (WBC
effect), c) excessive bruising and bleeding (platelet effect). Kidney damage
may be indicated by changes in urine output or appearance, pain upon urination
or in the lower back or general edema (swelling from fluid retention). Liver
damage may be indicated by loss of appetite, jaundice (yellowish skin and eye
color), fatigue and sometimes pain and swelling in the upper right abdomen.
For additional health information, refer to section 11.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inhalation:
Move victim to fresh air and provide oxygen if breathing is difficult. Get
medical attention. If the victim has difficulty breathing or tightness of the
chest, is dizzy, vomiting or unresponsive, give 100% oxygen with rescue
breathing or CPR as required and transport to the nearest medical facility.
Skin:
Remove contaminated clothing. Flush with large amounts of water for at least
15 minutes and follow by washing with soap if available. If redness,
swelling, pain and/or blisters occur, transport to the nearest medical
facility for additional treatment.
Eye:
Flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. If redness,
burning, blurred vision or swelling persist, transport to nearest medical
facility for additional treatment.
Ingestion:
DO NOT take internally. Do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs
spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into
lungs. Get medical attention. In general no treatment is necessary unless
large quantities are swallowed, however, get medical advice. Have victim
rinse mouth out with water, then drink sips of water to remove taste from
mouth. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent
aspiration.
Note to Physician:
If more than 2.0ml/kg body weight has been ingested and vomiting has not
occurred, emesis should be induced with supervision. Keep victim's head below
hips to prevent aspiration. If symptons such as loss of gag reflex,
convulsions, or unconsciousness occur before emesis, gastric lavage using a
cuffed endotracheal tube should be considered.

non-motor fuel uses.
Handling:
Surfaces that are sufficiently hot may ignite liquid material. Material is
extremely flammable and heavier than air. Vapors may travel across the ground
and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger.
Keep containers closed when not in use. WARNING! The flow of gasoline
through the pump nozzle can produce static electricity, which may cause a
fire if gasoline is pumped into an ungrounded container. To avoid static
buildup, place approved container on the ground. Do not fill container in
vehicle or truck bed. Keep nozzle in contact with container while filling. Do
not use automatic pump handle (latch-open) device. Turn off all battery
operated portable electronic devices (examples include: cellular phones,
pagers and CD players) before operating gasoline pump. Use only with adequate
ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry place with adequate ventilation. Keep away from open
flames and high temperatures.
Keep liquid and vapor away from heat, sparks and flame. Extinguish pilot
lights, cigarettes and turn off other sources of ignition prior to use and
until all vapors have dissipated. Use explosion-proof ventilation to prevent
vapor accumulation while in use.

Carcinogenicity:
Gasoline has been tested by API in a long-term inhalation test in mice and
rats. There was an increased incidence of liver cancer in female mice. Male
rats had a dose related increase in kidney tumors. This effect was due to
formation of alpha-2u-globulin in the rats. This material is not formed in
humans and is therefore not considered relevant.
Carcinogenicity Classification
Gasoline (Conventional, CARB and RFG)
IARC: Possible Carcinogen (2B) ACGIH: A3 OSHA: Yes
Benzene
NTP: Yes IARC: Carcinogen (1) ACGIH: A1 OSHA: Yes
Ethyl Benzene
IARC: Possible Carcinogen (2B)
Naphthalene
ACGIH: A4
Toluene
IARC: Not Classifiable (3) ACGIH: A4
Carcinogenicity
Chronic inhalation of wholly vaporized gasoline produced kidney tumors in male
rats and liver tumors in female mice. The kidney tumors have been shown to
develop through a unique mechanism involving Alpha-2u globulin. This protein
is not present in humans making the kidney tumors irrelevant to potential
human health risks. Origin of the female mouse liver tumors is less
understood, leaving their significance for human risks uncertain. Prolonged
and repeated exposure to high concentrations (10s to 100s ppm) of benzene may
cause serious injury to blood-forming organs, is associated with anemia
(depletion of blood cells) and is linked to the later development of acute
myelogenous leukemia (AML) in humans. A recent chronic bioassay of
ethylbenzene by the NTP produced clear evidence of carcinogenicity in male
rats based on kidney tumor increase. Other animal tumors possibly associated
with ethylbenzene include testicular adenomas in male rats, kidney tumors in
female rats, lung tumors in male mice and liver tumors in female mice.
Toluene is not known to be mutagenic or carcinogenic although available human
and experimental animal data are limited and insufficient to assess
carcinogenic potential.
Cardiovascular System
While there is no evidence that workplace exposure to acceptable levels of
toluene vapors (e.g., the TLV) have produced cardiac effects in humans, high
concentrations may cause cardiac sensitization and sudden lethality has been
reported from habitual sniffing of solvents or glue. Animal studies have
confirmed the sensitizing effects. Sensitization may lead to fatal changes in
heart rhythms. Hypoxia or injection of adrenalin-like agents may enhance this
effect. Thickening of heart blood vessels has been reported in animals exposed
to xylene.
Developmental Toxicity
Daily exposure of pregnant rats to unleaded gasoline vapor at concentrations
up to 9000 ppm resulted in no detectable maternal or developmental toxicity.
Numerous studies of benzene in experimental animals have failed to detect
teratogenic effects (birth defects) even at doses of benzene toxic to the
mothers. There is some evidence of fetal toxicity, but not malformations, in
mice and rabbits exposed to 500 ppm and higher concentrations of benzene vapor
during gestation. Ethylbenzene caused birth defects in rats but not rabbits at
doses that produced toxic effects in the mothers. n-Hexane produced fetal
toxicity, reduced fetal weight, in mice at maternally toxic doses.
Developmental toxicity studies of xylenes showed embryolethal/toxic and
teratogenic effects with maternal toxicity. Many case studies involving abuse
during pregnancy implicate toluene as a developmental toxicant. Studies in
laboratory animals have shown developmental effects comparable to those
reported in humans, but the effects were generally associated with maternal
toxicity. Ethanol ingestion during pregnancy has been reported to cause birth
defects in some infants.
Genotoxicity
Unleaded gasoline was tested for genetic activity in tests using microbial
cells, cultured mammalian cells and rats (bone marrow) and was judged to be
negative in every case. Benzene has been shown to be non-mutagenic or weakly
mutagenic in a variety of in vitro (test tube) systems. It has, however, been
found to cause other types of chromosome damage (micronuclei, chromosome
breakage, non-dysjunctional events) in both laboratory animals and workers
exposed to high doses of benzene. These effects appear to be related to one
or more metabolites of benzene, possibly acting in combination. Benzene
metabolites can also bind to proteins forming detectable complexes (adducts).
There is limited evidence of binding to the genetic material (DNA) itself.
The relationship of these effects to the causation of leukemia or tumors in
experimental animals is unknown. Changes in chromosomes of lymphocytes have
been identified in some studies of humans exposed to styrene. The significance
of these changes is not known, and other such studies have produced negative
results. Chromosomal breaks have been reported in the bone marrow cells of
rats exposed to styrene by inhalation along with increased frequency of sister
chromatid exchanges in alveolar macrophages, bone marrow cells and
regenerating liver cells. Ethylbenzene was not mutagenic in a number of in
vitro procedures. Naphthalene was negative in Ames mutagenicity and rat cell
transformation assays. Cyclohexane and pseudocumene were also negative in Ames
testing. Toluene was negative in the Ames assay and negative for chromosomal
aberrations and sister-chromatid exchanges in human lymphocytes and in an in
vitro test using hamster cells. Mouse lymphoma test results for toluene were
inconclusive.
Blood/Blood Forming Organs
Prolonged and repeated exposure to high concentrations (10s to 100s ppm) of
benzene may cause serious injury to blood-forming organs and is associated
with anemia (depletion of blood cells). Repeated exposure of rabbits to high
cyclohexane vapor concentrations causes a slight increase in blood clotting
time. Blood effects were seen in rats following prolonged and repeated oral
exposure to a mixture of xylenes containing ethylbenzene.
Immunotoxicity
Various studies of workers exposed to high levels of benzene have found
impairment of both humoral (antibody) and cellular immunity, most notably a
decrease in levels of circulating leukocytes. Many of these exposures also
involve other solvents and chemicals. Animal studies with high benzene doses
have reported similar effects.
Kidney
Long-term inhalation of wholly vaporized gasoline caused increased kidney
weight and progressive nephropathy (tissue damage) in male rats. In rats
exposed orally to a xylene mixture also containing ethylbenzene, males
developed hyaline droplet changes and females showed evidence of early chronic
nephropathy. Intentional abuse of toluene vapors by 'glue-sniffers' has been
associated with damage to the kidneys.
Liver
Inhalation of gasoline vapor increased liver weights, urinary excretion of
ascorbic acid, and hepatic enzymeactivity in male rats. Liver weight increases
were seen in rats dosed orally for 90 days with a xylene mixture also
containing ethylbenzene. Reversible liver damage has been reported in persons
exposed to toluene by solvent abuse. Prolonged and repeated consumption of
ethanol has been shown to cause liver damage in animals and cirrhosis in
humans.
Neurotoxicity
Inhalation exposure to high n-hexane concentrations has resulted in peripheral
neuropathy in rodents and also in human workers. Rats receiving prolonged and
repeated exposure to high doses of xylene have shown hearing loss. Prolonged
and repeated exposures to high toluene concentrations (mixed solvent) have
resulted in hearing loss in laboratory animals. There have also been reports
of hearing damage in humans overexposed to toluene and other solvents,
however, these effects and their possible relationship to noise exposure
remain uncertain. Intentional inhalation ('glue-sniffing') and resulting
overexposure to toluene vapors has been linked to brain injury.
Reproductive Toxicity
Inhalation of high n-hexane concentrations resulted in testicular and
epididymal lesions in laboratory animals. Animal studies on benzene have shown
testicular effects and alteration in reproductive cycles.
Sensitization
Gasoline and component petroleum streams blended to produce it were tested in
animal studies and found not to cause skin sensitization.
Systemic Toxicity
Studies on n-hexane in laboratory animals have shown mild, transitory effects
on the spleen and blood (white blood cells) and evidence of nasal tract and
lung damage. Chronic exposure to vapors of a mixture containing 50%
pseudocumene (and possibly contaminated with benzene) caused decreased weight
gain and blood changes (lymphopenia and neutrophilia), liver, lung, spleen,
kidney, and bone marrow effects in rats. Repeated exposure to high vapor
concentrations of cyclohexane caused minor microscopic liver and kidney
changes in rabbits. Laboratory animals exposed to prolonged and repeated doses
of xylenes by various routes have shown effects in liver, kidneys, lungs,
spleen, heart, blood and adrenals. Persons on disulfiram (Antabuse(R)) therapy
should be aware that the ethyl alcohol in this product is hazardous to them
just as is alcohol from any source. Disulfiram reactions (vomiting, headache
and even collapse) may follow ingestion of small amounts of alcohol and have
also been described from skin contact
