However when wet, it will produce burns to the skin.This product is <br />corrosive to all tissues contacted and upon inhalation, may cause irritation to <br />raucous membranes and respiratory tract.The dry material is irritating to the skin. <br />However when wet, it will produce burns to the skin. <br />Subchronic 1 Chronic There are no known or reported effects from repeated exposure except those <br />Toxicity: secondary to burns. <br />Reproductive and Calcium hypochlorite has been tested for teratogenicity in laboratory <br />Developmental Toxicity: animals. Results of this study have shown that calcium hypochlorite is not a <br />teratogen. <br />CALCIUM CHLORIDE Not known or reported to cause reproductive or <br />developmental toxicity. <br />Mutagenicity: Calcium hypochlorite has been tested in the Dominant lethal assay in male <br />mice, and it did not induce a dominant lethal response. Calcium hypochlorite <br />has been reported to produce mutagenic activity in two in vitro assays. It <br />has, however, been shown to lack the capability to produce mutations in <br />animals based on results from the micronucleus assay. In vitro assays <br />frequently are inappropriate to judge the mutagenic potential of bactericidal <br />chemicals due to a high degree of cellular toxicity. The concentration which <br />produces mutations in these in vitro assays is significantly greater than the <br />concentrations used for disinfection. Based on high cellular toxicity in in vitro <br />assays and the lack of mutagenicity in animals, the risk of genetic damage <br />to humans is judged not significant. <br />CALCIUM CHLORIDE This product was determined to be non-mutagenic in <br />the Ames assay. It was also shown to be non- <br />clastogenic in the chromosomal aberration test. <br />Carcinogenicity: This product is not known or reported to be carcinogenic by any reference <br />source including IARC, OSHA, NTP or EPA. One hundred mice were <br />exposed dermally 3 times a week for 18 months to a solution of calcium <br />hypochlorite. Histopathological examination failed to show an increased <br />incidence of tumors. IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) <br />reviewed studies conducted with several hypochlorite salts. IARC has <br />classified hypochlorite salts as having inadequate evidence for <br />carcinogenicity to humans and animals. IARC therefore considers <br />hypochlorite salts to be not classifiable as to their carcinogenicity to humans <br />(Group 3 Substance). <br />CALCIUM CHLORIDE This chemical is not known or reported to be <br />carcinogenic by any reference source including IARC, <br />OSHA, NTP, or EPA. <br />M1*01161 M FAtleelX•Tc]-liff-AN I ZIts] N-61-1 1191 <br />Overview: Highly toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms. <br />Pulsar Power Shock Granular <br />REVISION DATE: 05/26/2015 Page 10 of 14 <br />
