Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
If inhaledFresh air, rest.
In case of skin contactRemove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
In case of eye contactFirst rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
If swallowedRinse mouth.
4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedSYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound may include irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Ingestion of large amounts may cause gastrointestinal distress and diarrhea. Exposure may also cause the formation of renal calcium oxalate calculi. There have been cases of allergic reaction with eczema, urticaria and asthma. The mucolytic effect of this compound might render the cervical mucus less permeable to spermatozoa. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may cause irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory tract. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessaryAll sources of vitamin C should be withdrawn and treatment for gastrointestinal symptoms provided, including antiemetics. If significant hemolysis occurs, intravenous hydration to maintain urine output should be administered. Monitoring renal function should be performed, and rarely, transfusion of packed red blood cells is required.
5.Fire-fighting measures 5.1 Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing mediaFires involving this material can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. A water spray may also be used.

8.2 Appropriate engineering controlsHandle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
8.3 Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE) Eye/face protectionSafety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166. Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin protectionWear impervious clothing. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
Respiratory protectionWear dust mask when handling large quantities.

10.2 Chemical stabilityStable to air when dry; impure preparation and in many natural products vitamin oxidizes on exposure to air and light. Aqueous solutions are rapidly oxidized by air, accelerated by alkalies, iron, copper
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactionsL-ASCORBIC ACID is a lactone. Reacts as a relatively strong reducing agent and decolorizes many dyes. Forms stable metal salts. Incompatible with oxidizers, dyes, alkalis, iron and copper. Also incompatible with ferric salts and salts of heavy metals, particularly copper, zinc and manganese .

12.Ecological information 12.1 Toxicity- Toxicity to fish: LC50 Species: /Oncorhynchus mykiss/ (Rainbow trout); Concentration: 1,020 mg/L for 96 hr /Conditions of bioassay not specified in source examined
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
AEROBIC: Using a mixed microbial consortia enriched from untreated sewage samples collected in the vicinity of a primary treatment plant in Delhi, India, L-ascorbic acid exhibited 36.7 mg/L BOD, suggesting moderate susceptibility to biodegradation(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for L-ascorbic acid(SRC), using a log Kow of -1.85(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soilThe Koc of L-ascorbic acid is estimated as 10(SRC), using a log Kow of -1.85(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that L-ascorbic acid is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The pKa of L-ascorbic acid is 4.70(4), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in the anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).
12.5 Other adverse effectsno data available
13.Disposal considerations 13.1 Disposal methods ProductThe material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Contaminated packagingContainers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
