Eye contact: Gently rinse eyes for 15 minutes. Consult a physician. Move individuals into fresh air.

Inhalation: Move individual into fresh air. If breathing is difficult. oxygen may be given by qualified personnel. Seek immediate medical attention.

Ingestion:: Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Consult a physician.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: Irritating to eyes. May cause slight skin irritation. Central neNous system effects. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. May affect the liver. May affect the kidneys. May affect the blood. May affect the bone marrow. May affect respiration. May affect fertility or cause teratogenic effects.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: No data available.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable extinguishing media: Carbon dioxide. alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, or water spray.

Special hazards arising from the substance: 2-ethoxyethanol is flammable. It may be ignited by heat. sparks, or flames. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.

Advice for firefighters: Wear self-contained brathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

6.  ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions: Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapors.
