SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound include painless blanching or erythema, vomiting, collapse, coma, profuse sweating, intense thirst, nausea, diarrhea, cyanosis, hyperactivity, stupor, blood pressure fall, hyperpnea, abdominal pain, hemolysis, convulsions and pulmonary edema followed by pneumonia. Other symptoms include irritation of the skin with redness and edema, burns, irritation of the eyes, nose and pharynx, and corneal injury. Exposure can cause irritation of the mucous membranes and respiratory tract, and severe destruction of tissue (depending on the intensity and duration of exposure). Symptoms of exposure to a related compound include softening and whitening of the skin followed by the development of painful burns, headache, dizziness, rapid and difficult breathing and weakness. Ingestion of a related compound causes severe burns and internal damage. Chronic exposure may cause digestive disturbances, nervous disorders, skin eruptions, dermatitis, liver damage and kidney damage. Skin contact may result in redness, edema and burns. Eye contact may cause irritation and corneal injury. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may be harmful by ingestion. It is an irritant of the skin, eyes, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract. Prolonged contact may result in severe burns and destruction of tissue. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrogen chloride gas. (NTP, 1992)

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.

Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health, therefore utmost care must be taken.No data are available on this isomer but a mixture of trichlorophenols may cause irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory tract.These substances may cause acute metabolic effects resulting in damage in several organs notably CNS.Some technical products may contain highly toxic impurities including polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans.Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested.
