by Exposure:
Chronic Effects: Ingestion of diethylene glycol has caused central nervous system
depression, anuria, kidney and liver pathology and the formation of
urinary bladder stones has been reported for rodent species
Carcinogenicity: None
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
First Aid Procedures: In case of eye contact, hold eyelids open and wash with gentle stream
of water for at least 15 minutes preferably at eyewash fountain. Get
