SECTION XI - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Liquid Tide formulas have a low order of toxicity. If ingested, it may be mildly irritating. It is expected to be
moderately emetic.
LD50 (oral, estimated): > 2g/kg
ED50 (emesis, estimated): ~ 0.5 g/kg
This mixture is considered to be a moderate irritant to eyes and a slight irritant to skin. Repeated inhalation of
aerosols may result in sensitization (skin prick test positive) to one or more enzyme proteins. For sensitized
persons, subsequent inhalation of aerosols may result in transient "hay-fever-like" symptoms (watery eyes and/or
nose, scratchy throat) and/or transient "asthma-like symptoms" [chest tightness and difficulty in breathing caused
by bronchoconstriction (narrowing of the airways)].
SECTION XII - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Based on ecotoxicity and fate data for the individual ingredients in this specific formulation and for related
consumer household cleaning product formulations, it is expected that this product would exhibit a non-hazardous
order of toxicity at relevant environmental concentrations.
SECTION XIII - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Waste Disposal Method: Disposal is to be performed in compliance with all Federal, state/provincial and local
regulations. Small or household quantities may be disposed of in refuse or in sewer. First check with your local
water treatment plant. For larger quantities, incineration is preferred. Do not landfill.
SECTION XIV - TRANSPORT INFORMATION
The finished product is non-hazardous under DOT.
