Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
SYMPTOMS: This compound is a primary irritant and sensitizer and can cause contact dermatitis. Irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory tract occurs. Ingestion of this compound may cause gastroenteritis, vomiting and gastric secretion of mucin. It may also cause abdominal burning, nausea, diarrhea and convulsions. Ingestion of large amounts can cause liver damage and gastrointestinal damage. Inhalation of this compound can lead to bronchial irritation, dizziness, and rapid and shallow breathing. Skin contact may cause an inflammatory reaction on the skin. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause allergic dermatitis. Eye contact may cause burns. Skin sensitization may also occur. Symptoms of exposure to this type of compound include intense irritation of all tissues, circulatory collapse, dysuria, hematuria, unconsciousness, tachycardia, pulmonary edema, bronchial pneumonia, abortion and irreversible renal damage. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may be harmful by ingestion or inhalation. It is a primary irritant and sensitizer. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke, irritating fumes and toxic fumes of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. (NTP, 1992)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Treatment is primarily supportive as there is no antidote. If mucosal burns are present, consider endoscopy to look for other ulcerations.

Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE)
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

SECTION 12: Ecological information
Toxicity
- Toxicity to fish: LC50 Oncorhynchus mykiss (Rainbow trout, juvenile approximately 2-3 months old) 61.5 mg/L/24 hr; 60.8 mg/L/48, 72, 96 hr; static, 15 +/-1 deg C, mean hardness 95 mg/L CaCO3, average fish loading density was 0.4 (0.3-0.5) g/L, within a bioassay test volume of 20 L.
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: At a concentration of 100 mg/L, isoeugenol (which is structurally similar to eugenol) was found to be readily biodegradable using a Manometric Respirometry Test (OECD Guideline 301F) in which isoeugenol reached 79% biodegradation after 28 days. The biodegradation started on day 2 and reached 79% at the end of the 10-day window period(1).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 20 was calculated in fish for eugenol(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.49(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of eugenol is estimated as 340(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.49(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these estimated Koc values suggest that eugenol is expected to have moderate to lowmobility in soil.
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
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.
