Trace quantities of impurities are also likely. *silica component may include respirable crystalline silica 2,000 mg/kg. Data considered includes: potassium hydroxide 273 mg/kg (rat), phosphoric acid 1530 mg/kg (rat), boric acid 466 mg B/kg (mouse) = 2668 mg/kg (mouse), ammonium nitrate 2217 mg/kg (rat). Dermal: Using LD50's for ingredients, the Acute Toxicity Estimate (ATE) (dermal) for the mixture is >2,000 mg/kg. Inhaled: Using LD50's for ingredients, the Acute Toxicity Estimate (ATE) (inhalation) for the mixture is >5mg/L/4h. Eye: The mixture is considered to be an eye irritant, because some of the ingredients (ammonium nitrate, sodium thiosulphate, urea) present are considered eye irritants in more concentrated form. *** Page 5 of 7 November 2023 Product Name: PermaWet NutraMix Skin: The mixture is considered to be a skin irritant, because some of the ingredients (sodium thiosulphate, urea) present are considered skin irritants in more concentrated form. Chronic Sensitisation: The mixture is not considered to be a contact sensitizer. Mutagenicity: No ingredient present at concentrations > 0.1% is considered a mutagen. Carcinogenicity: No ingredient present at concentrations > 0.1% is considered a carcinogen. Reproductive / Developmental: No ingredient present at concentrations >0.1% is considered a reproductive/developmental toxicant. Systemic: No ingredient present at concentrations > 1% is considered a target organ toxicant. Aggravation of existing conditions: None known. 12. Ecological Data Summary In all cases prevent run-off to drains, sewers and waterways. Supporting Data Aquatic: Using EC50's for ingredients, the calculated EC50 for the mixture is > 100 mg/L. Bioaccumulation: No data Degradability: No data Soil: No evidence of soil toxicity. Terrestrial vertebrate: No evidence of toxicity towards terrestrial vertebrates. Terrestrial invertebrate: No evidence of toxicity towards terrestrial invertebrates. Biocidal: no data Environmental effect levels: No data 13. Disposal Considerations Restrictions: There are no product-specific restrictions, however, local council and resource consent conditions may apply, including requirements of trade waste consents. Disposal method: Disposal of this product must comply with the Hazardous Substances (Disposal) Notice 2017 and the requirements of the Resource Management Act for which approval should be sought from the Regional Authority.
