Environmental Hazards: Protein-based material expected to degrade. No evidence of harm to soil or aquatic life under normal use.
Other Hazards: May cause allergic reaction in people with history of sensitivity to proteins or enzymes.
Chemical Name: Alpha Acetolactate Decarboxylase (protein component)
CAS Number: 9025-02-9
Concentration: Active enzyme protein ≥90%
Other Components: Residual process water, stabilizing agents (e.g., sodium chloride & buffer salts) ≤10%
Impurities: None with known relevance for safety
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, keep at rest, and seek medical advice if symptoms persist.
Skin Contact: Wash area thoroughly with mild soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes gently with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Lift eyelids. Seek medical attention if irritation continues.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, drink water to dilute, seek medical advice if feeling unwell.
Important Symptoms: Sneezing, mild itching, redness of skin/eyes, digestive upset if swallowed.
Specific Treatment: No known antidote. Supportive treatment based on symptoms.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: High pressure water jets may cause spattering
Specific Hazards: Organic dust may present slight fire hazard if dispersed in air. Combustion may generate carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides
Protective Equipment: Firefighters need self-contained breathing apparatus, protective clothing
Firefighting Procedures: Use standard methods for chemical fires. Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray. Minimize spread of runoff.
Personal Precautions: Avoid breathing dust. Ensure good ventilation. Wear personal protective equipment such as gloves and approved dust masks.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into sewers or surface waters. Sweep up spills to prevent unnecessary exposure.
Containment and Cleanup: Gather spilled solids using non-sparking tools, moisten to reduce dust, place in labeled containers for proper disposal.
Other Information: For large spills, contact emergency services and follow local regulations.
Handling: Use only with adequate ventilation. Use protective gear to avoid skin and eye contact. Avoid creating or inhaling dust. Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling product.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Clean work clothing routinely. Store away from food and beverages.
Storage Conditions: Keep container tightly closed, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Store between 2°C and 8°C for maximum shelf life.
Storage Incompatibilities: Strong acids, oxidizers, or bases may degrade enzyme activity.
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation in areas where dust formation occurs. Maintain eyewash stations and safety showers.
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits for this product.
Personal Protection: Safety glasses with side shields, lab coat or chemical-resistant apron, suitable gloves (nitrile or latex). Dust mask or approved respirator if dust formation likely.
Environmental Controls: Avoid release to the environment. Handle waste responsibly.
