<br /> sufficient human and aminal evidence,a human carcinogen(Croup 1)
<br /> Summary of Risks Prolonged stun contact or excessive unhalation of benzene vapor may cause headache weakness,appetite loss, and fatigue
<br /> The most unportant heslth hazuds are canccr(lcukenua)and bane marrow damage with injury to blood fornung tissue from chronic low-level
<br /> sure- Higher level exposures may emtaw the respaatory tract and cause central nervous system(CNS)depression
<br /> Ieal Coaditlotis Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure Exposure may worsen ailments of the heard lungs,liver,kidneys,blood,and CNS
<br /> et Orrggans.Blood,central nervous system,bone marrow,eyes,upper respiratory tract, and skin
<br /> Prlmar Entry Routes, Inhalations,skin contact_
<br /> Acute Effects=Symptoms of acute overexposure include trtitarion of the eyes,nose,and respuatory tract,breathlessness,euphoria,nausea,
<br /> drowsiness,headache,dizziness,and intoxication Severe exposure may lead to convulsions and unconsciousness Stun contact may cause a
<br /> drying Tash(dermautu)_
<br /> Chronic Effects Long-term chiorue exposure may result in many blood duordcrc ranging from aplastic anemia(an malothty to form blood cells)
<br /> to kuk anis_
<br /> FURST AID
<br /> Eyes:Gently lift the eyelids and flush un mediately and continuously with flooding amounts of water until transported to an emergency medical
<br /> facility Consult a physician immediately

<br /> After first a]d,get apppropriate In-plant,paramedic,or community meddlcal support
<br /> Physician's Note Evaluate chronic exposure with a CBC,peripheral smear,and rcucuk yte count for signs of myelotoxicaryry Follow up any
<br /> early indicators of leukemia with a bone marrow biopsy Urinary phenol conjugates may be used for biological monitoring of recent exposure
<br /> Acute management is primarily supportive for CNS depression

<br /> SpilVLeak.Deign and practice a benzene spill control and eowver neaseue plan(SCOP) Notify safety personnel,evacuate all unnecessary
<br /> personnel,eliminate all heat and ignition sources,and provide adequate ventilation.Cleanup personnel shouldprotect against vapor inhalatron,eye
<br /> contact.and skin absorption Absorb as much benzene as possible with an unit,noncombustible material For large spills,dike far ahead of spill
<br /> acid contain liquid Use nonsparking tools to place waste liquid or absorbent into closable containers for disposal keep waste out of confuied
<br /> spaces such as sewers,watersheds,and waterways because of explosion danger Follow applicable OSHA regulations(29 CFR 1910 120)
