4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedSYMPTOMS: This compound is a primary irritant and sensitizer and can cause contact dermatitis. Irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory tract occurs. Ingestion of this compound may cause gastroenteritis, vomiting and gastric secretion of mucin. It may also cause abdominal burning, nausea, diarrhea and convulsions. Ingestion of large amounts can cause liver damage and gastrointestinal damage. Inhalation of this compound can lead to bronchial irritation, dizziness, and rapid and shallow breathing. Skin contact may cause an inflammatory reaction on the skin. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause allergic dermatitis. Eye contact may cause burns. Skin sensitization may also occur. Symptoms of exposure to this type of compound include intense irritation of all tissues, circulatory collapse, dysuria, hematuria, unconsciousness, tachycardia, pulmonary edema, bronchial pneumonia, abortion and irreversible renal damage. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may be harmful by ingestion or inhalation. It is a primary irritant and sensitizer. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke, irritating fumes and toxic fumes of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessaryTreatment is primarily supportive as there is no antidote. If mucosal burns are present, consider endoscopy to look for other ulcerations.

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.

12.Ecological information 12.1 Toxicity- Toxicity to fish: LC50 Oncorhynchus mykiss (Rainbow trout, juvenile approximately 2-3 months old) 61.5 mg/L/24 hr; 60.8 mg/L/48, 72, 96 hr; static, 15 +/-1°C, mean hardness 95 mg/L CaCO3, average fish loading density was 0.4 (0.3-0.5) g/L, within a bioassay test volume of 20 L.
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
AEROBIC: At a concentration of 100 mg/L, isoeugenol (which is structurally similar to eugenol) was found to be readily biodegradable using a Manometric Respirometry Test (OECD Guideline 301F) in which isoeugenol reached 79% biodegradation after 28 days. The biodegradation started on day 2 and reached 79% at the end of the 10-day window period(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF of 20 was calculated in fish for eugenol(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.49(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 eugenol is estimated as 340(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.49(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these estimated Koc values suggest that eugenol is expected to have moderate to lowmobility in soil.
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.
