Emergency Overview: The microorganisms used in this product are BioSafety Class 1 microorganisms, as defined by the Centers for Disease Control as unlikely to cause disease in healthy humans or animals. However, persons with compromised immune systems should avoid contact with open wounds and/or breathing dust or mist from manufacturing processes. These organisms are susceptible to many commonly used antibiotics, and Alken-Murray is willing to supply antibiotic sensitivity information to any doctor or import health authority requesting it. Because surfactants are included, primary skin irritation under 29CFR 1910.1200 is considered possible, as is true of many shampoos that contain the same surfactants. Although bacterial cultures included in this product were grown in a sterile aqueous medium containing a variety of nutrients, including corn syrup solids, digests of soybean and/or skim milk, glucose or other sugars, vegetable oils, including olive oil, yeast extract, mineral salts, etc., the concentrations of these residual nutrients are believed to be below levels capable of triggering irritation. Potential Health Effects: |

Flash Point: NA Flammability Limits: NA Autoignition temp: NA Fire Extinguishing Media: Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical Special Fire-Fighting Information: None Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: None |
| For small spills, flush to waste treatment sewer (product is biodegradable). For large spills, contain and collect for reuse. |
| Store in cool dry place. Keep container closed when not in use. Avoid storage of product above 110 degrees F and keep from freezing. Keep out of direct sunlight. |

Environmental Fate: This product is not likely to bio-concentrate, if mixed with water. This product released directly or indirectly into the environment is not expected to have a significant impact. Environmental Toxicity: This material has a low potential to affect aquatic organisms, secondary waste treatment microorganisms, and the growth of some plants. Ammonia: Fish toxicity - 1600 µg/L 96 hour LC50 (mortality) common jollytail. Coconut-based surfactants including CAS 6178-40-0, CAS 68140-00-1 and CAS 9004-80-4 present low volatility and an aquatic LC50 of 0.2 to 59 mg/L and since the included bacteria use them as a food source, minimal environmental impact is expected. Low volatility, water soluble formula. Environmental Fate: This product is not likely to bio-concentrate,
if mixed with water. This product released directly or indirectly into
the environment is not expected to have a significant impact beyond typically
preventing fish from trapping air bubbles under their gills. Aquatic Ecotoxicity of Individual Ingredients: CAS# 2634-33-1, 1,2 benzisothiazolin-3-one (<1%) is VERY toxic to aquatic organisms (Fish, LC50, 4 days exposure = 1.0 - 3.3 ppm. Crustaceans (Daphnia magna) EC50 immobilization = 2 days exposure 0.85 ppm. CAS# 123-31-9, Hydroxyquinone (<0.1%): Rainbow Trout LC50 = 0.097 mg/L; 96H, Fathead Minnow LC50 = 0.1 - 0.18 mg/L, 96H, Hydroxyquinone will biodegrade easily.

| RCRA Hazard Class (if discarded): .Neat,, unused product is not considered a hazardous waste, according to RCRA regulations 40 CFR 261. For proper disposal of used materials, an assessment must be completed to determine the proper waste management options permissible under applicable rules, regulations and/or laws governing client's location. Use until less than 1 inch remains in the container. Disinfect container with a 1% sodium hypochlorite solution, triple rinse with clean water, pouring rinse water to sewer. Then remove or deface product label to avoid confusion if pail or drum is later refilled. Clean, empty containers should be recycled or disposed of through an approved waste management facility. |
