Toxicity Ratings
An explanation of the toxicity ratings is given
in the following paragraphs:
U= Unknown. This designation is given to
substances which fall into one of the following
categories:
(a) No toxicity information could be found
in the literature and none was known to the
authors.
(b) Limited information based on animal ex-
periments was available but in the opinion of
the authors this information could not be ap-
plied to human exposures. In some cases this ;
information is mentioned so that the reader mav '
know that some experimental work has been
done.
(c) Published toxicity data were felt by the
authors to be of questionable validity.
0 = No Toxicity. This designation is given
to materials which fall into one of the following
categories:
(a) Materials which cause no harm under any
conditions of use.
(b) Materials which produce toxic effects on
humans only under the most unusual conditions
or by overwhelming dosage.
I = Slight Toxicity:
(a) Acute Local. Materials which on single
exposures lasting seconds, minutes or hours
cause only slight effects on the skin or mucous
membranes regardless of the extent of the
exposure.
(b) Acute Systemic. Materials which can be
absorbed into the body by inhalation, ingestion
or through the skin and which produce only
slight effects following single exposures lasting
seconds, tttinutes, or hours, or following inges-
tion of a single dose, regardless of the quantity
absorbed or the extent of exposure.
(c) Chronic Local. Materials which on con-
tinuous or repeated exposures extending over
periods of days, months, or years cause only
slight harm to the skin or mucous membranes.
The extent of exposure may be great or small.
(d) Chronic Systemic. Materials which can
be absorbed into the body by inhalation, inges-
tion or through the skin and which produce only
slight effects following continuous or repeated
exposures extending over days, months or years.
The extent of the exposure may be great or small.
In general, those substances classified as hav-
ing "slight toxicity" produce changes in the
human body which are readily reversible and
which will disappear following termination of
exposure, either with or without medical treat-
ment.
2 = htoderateToxicity:
(a) Acute Local. Materials which on single
exposure lasting seconds, minutes or hours
cause moderate effects on the skin or mucous
membranes. These effects may be the result of
intense exposure for a matter of seconds or
moderate exposure for a matter of hours.
(b) Acute Systemic. Materials which can be
absorbed into the body by inhalation, ingestion ,
or through the skin and which produce moderate
effects following single exposures lasting sec-
onds, minutes or hours, or following ingestion j
of a single dose.
(c) Chronic Local. Materials which on con-
tinuous or repeated exposures extending over
periods of days, months or years cause moderate
harm to the skin or mucous membranes.
(d) Chronic Systemic. Materials which can
be absorbed into the body by inhalation, inges-
tion or through the skin and which produce
moderate effects following continuous or re-
peated exposures extending over periods of
days. months or years.
Those substances classified as having "moder-
ate toxicity" may produce irreversible as well as
reversible changes in the human body. These
changes are not of such severity as to threaten
life or produce serious permanent physical
impairment.
3 = Severe Toxicity:
(a) Acute Local. Materials which on single
exposures lasting seconds or minutes cause in-
jury to skin or mucous membranes of suflicicnt
severity to threaten life or to cause permanent
physical impairment or disfigurement.
(b) Acute Systemic. Materials which can be
absorbed into the body by inhalation, ingestion
or through the skin and which can cause injury
of sufficient severity to threaten life following a
single exposure lasting seconds, minutes or
hours, or following ingestion of a single dose.
(c) Chronic Local. Materials which on con-
tinuous or repeated exposures extending over
periods of days, months or years can cause in-
jury to skin or mucous membranes of suflicient
severity to threaten life or to cause permanent
impairment, disfigurement or irreversible
change.
(d) Chronic Systemic. Materials which can
be absorbed into the body by inhalation, inges-
tion or through the skin and which can cause
death or serious physical impairment follou ing
continuous or repeated exposures to small
amounts extending over periods of days, months
or years. W
