2 SSLER REAGENT Page 2 Effects of Overexposure Exposure Limits: Skin Contact: Contact with skin is irritating and may cause burns. may be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts with symptoms similar to ingestion. Eye Contact: Contact may burn or damage the eyes. Ingestion: Harmful or fatal if swallowed. May cause burns or the mouth and pharynx, abdominal pain, vomiting, bloody diarrhea. May be followed by a rapid and weak pulse, shallow breathing, paleness, exhaustion, tremors and collapse. can cause burns, but its hazardous effects are secondary to those of mercuric iodide. Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. Irritating to the nose and throat and respiratory system. Overxposure may cause coughing, difficulty in breathing and chest pains. Mercury can be absorbed through inhalation with symptoms similar to ingestion. Chronic Effects of Overexposure: Mercury build-up in the brain, liver and kidneys. Headache, shakes, loose teeth, loss of appetite, skin ulcerations, impaired memory.
