An embrvotoxin is a chemical which causes damage to a developing embryo <br /> (i.e. within the first eight weeks of pregnancy in humans), but the damage does not propagate across <br /> generational lines. A teratogen is a chemical which causes damage to a developing fetus, but the damage does <br /> not propagate across generational lines. A reproductive to is any substance which interferes in any way with <br /> the reproductive process. <br /> MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Acute or chronic respiratory conditions may be <br /> aggravated by over-exposure to the components of this product. <br /> RECOMMENDATIONS TO PHYSICIANS: Administer oxygen, if necessary; treat symptoms; eliminate <br /> exposure. <br /> BIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE INDICES (BEIs): Currently, Biological Exposure Indices (BEls) are not applicable <br /> for the components of this gas mixture. <br /> 12.
