Alternative Names: 1,4-alpha-D-glucan glucanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.1
Intended Use: Industrial, food processing, laboratory applications
Manufacturer: Provided by supplier
Emergency Telephone: Local emergency services
Chemical Formula: Not applicable (protein preparation)
Classification: Sensitizer—may cause allergic reactions through inhalation or skin contact
Physical Hazards: Dust formation possible, respiratory tract irritation
Health Hazards: Prolonged exposure could trigger asthmatic symptoms, eye redness, skin irritation in sensitive individuals
Environmental Hazards: Not expected to pose a significant risk with proper industrial use, but should avoid uncontrolled release to water bodies
Main Ingredient: Amylase (enzyme, protein, CAS number varies with source)
Concentration: 90-100% (may contain inert stabilizers or carriers)
Other Ingredients: Stabilizers (e.g., sodium chloride, calcium chloride), preservative agents if formulated for storage
Impurities: Minimal, determined by manufacturing process controls
Inhalation: Move to fresh air, seek medical attention for persistent cough or difficulty breathing
Skin Contact: Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water, remove contaminated clothing
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, consult medical attention for persistent irritation
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, seek medical advice if significant symptoms develop
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or foam
Specific Hazards: May produce irritating smoke or toxic fumes (oxides of carbon and nitrogen) when burning
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus
Other Information: Avoid inhalation of smoke, remain upwind of fire site
Personal Precautions: Wear protective clothing, gloves, eye protection, and a dust mask or respirator
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains or surface water
Clean-up Methods: Contain spillage, collect spilt material with a damp cloth or absorbent material to minimize dust formation, dispose in sealed containers
Handling: Use with adequate ventilation, avoid creating dust, avoid breathing aerosols or dust, keep containers tightly sealed
Storage: Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials like acids or oxidizers, keep away from direct sunlight, do not freeze, label containers properly
Engineering Controls: Enclose processes or use local exhaust ventilation to reduce airborne concentrations
Personal Protective Equipment: Respiratory protection for dust exposure (e.g., N95 respirator), protective gloves (nitrile, latex), safety goggles or face shield, lab coat or protective clothing
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after handling, avoid eating or drinking in work areas, remove contaminated clothing before breaks
Physical State: Fine powder or liquid concentrate (depends on formulation)
Color: Off-white to yellowish
Odor: Mild, characteristic of proteins
pH (in solution): Typically 5.5–7.5
Solubility: Soluble in water; insoluble in organic solvents
Boiling Point: Not applicable (decomposes before boiling)
Melting Point: Not applicable (proteinaceous material)
Flash Point: Not applicable
