HEALTH EFFECTS AND FIRST AID

• INHALATION
  • AMETHYST
    • ACUTE EXPOSURE: Exposure to a large concentration of air-bom dust of this material may cause mechanical irritation of the mucous membranes and respiratory tract.
    • CHRONIC EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged inhalation of air-bom dust of this material may cause scarring of the
      lungs(pulmonary fibrosis), with shortness of breath, chronic cough, and respiratory assisted heart failure. Prolonged exposure to talc can produce a mild symptomatic pneumoconiosis.
  • RESPIRABLE QUARTZ -A CARCINOGEN
    • ACUTE EXPOSURE: Exposure to high concentrations of respirable crystalline silica may cause physical discomfort of the upper respirator tract.
    • CHRONIC EXPOSURE: Inhalation of very high concentrations of finely divided respirable crystalline silica dust may cause a rapidly developing silicosis or cancer.
  • FIRST AID: Remove from exposure area to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration and get medical attention immediately. Keep person warm and at rest. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
• SKIN CONTACT
  • ACUTE EXPOSURE: Direct contact may cause dryness, or may cause mild irritation if an allergic predisposition exists.
  • CHRONIC EXPOSURE: Prolonged contact may cause dryness of the skin, or may cause mild irritation if an allergic predisposition exists.
  • FIRST AID: Apply comunon skin moisturizers to relieve dryness. Irritations are uncommon; however, if irritation or redness develops, seek medical attention. Broken skin can be cleansed with mild soap and water.
• EYE CONTACT
  • ACUTE EXPOSURE: Direct contact with dust may cause mechanical irritation of the eyes.
  • CHRONIC EXPOSURE: Repeated exposure may cause conjunctiva inflammation
  • FIRST AID: Wash eyes with large amounts of water or normal saline solution. If irritation or redness develops, seek medical attention.
• INGSTION
  • ACUTE EXPOSURE: This material is considered to be harmless and inert when ingested.
  • CHRONIC EXPOSURE: Repeated ingestion of large doses of talc for 13 and 10 successive days by rabbits and mice, respectively, revealed negative teratogen and carcinogenic results.
  • FIRST AID: Treat symptomatically and supportively. If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to prevent aspiration.
