11. TOXICOLOGICAL DATA
------------------------------------------------------------------------
---ACUTE TOXICOLOGY---
ORAL TOXICITY (RATS): Practically non-toxic (LD50: greater than 2000
mg/kg). ---Based on testing of similar products and/or the
components.
DERMAL TOXICITY (RABBITS): Practically non-toxic (LD50: greater than
2000 mg/kg). ---Based on testing of similar products and/or the
components.
INHALATION TOXICITY (RATS): Practically non-toxic (LC50: greater
than 5 mg/l). ---Based on testing of similar products and/or the
components.
EYE IRRITATION (RABBITS): Practically non-irritating. (Draize score:
greater than 6 but 15 or less). ---Based on testing of similar
products and/or the components.
SKIN IRRITATION (RABBITS): Practically non-irritating. (Primary
Irritation Index: greater than 0.5 but less than 3). ---Based
on testing of similar products and/or the components.
OTHER ACUTE TOXICITY DATA: Although an acute inhalation study was not
performed with this product, a variety of mineral and synthetic
oils, such as those in this product, have been tested. These
samples had virtually no effect other than a nonspecific
inflammatory response in the lung to the aerosolized mineral oil.
The presence of additives in other tested formulations (in
approximately the same amounts as in the present formulation) did
not alter the observed effects.
---SUBCHRONIC TOXICOLOGY (SUMMARY)---
No significant adverse effects were found in studies using repeated
dermal applications of similar formulations to the skin of
laboratory animals for 13 weeks at doses significantly higher
than those expected during normal industrial exposure. The
animals were evaluated extensively for effects of exposure
(hematology, serum chemistry, urinalysis, organ weights,
microscopic examination of tissues etc.).
---REPRODUCTIVE TOXICOLOGY (SUMMARY)---
No teratogenic effects would be expected from dermal exposure, based
on laboratory developmental toxicity studies of major components
in this formulation and/or materials of similar composition.
---CHRONIC TOXICOLOGY (SUMMARY)---
Repeated and/or prolonged exposure may cause irritation to the skin,
eyes or respiratory tract. Overexposure to oil mist may result

in oil droplet deposition and/or granuloma formation. For
