Composition / Information on Ingredients

Ingredient: Dehydrated mushroom slices or powder
Chemical Nature: 100% pure dehydrated mushroom of species specified (e.g., Agaricus bisporus, Lentinula edodes)
Physical State: Light brown to dark brown powder or slices
Impurities: May contain up to 2% natural debris (stems, soil trace)
Allergens: Mushroom protein, potential cross-contamination with nuts, milk, or soy during processing
Proprietary Ingredients: None detected; no added preservatives or chemicals

First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move individual to fresh air, seek medical attention if respiratory symptoms persist
Skin Contact: Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water, medical help if rash or irritation develops
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes under running water for several minutes, remove contact lenses, call physician if irritation persists
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, drink water, consult physician if allergic reaction or discomfort occurs
Most Important Symptoms: Sneezing, watery eyes, mild respiratory irritation, itchy or irritated skin in sensitive persons
Immediate Medical Attention/Special Treatment: Antihistamines for allergic reactions, treat symptoms as needed

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, foam, CO2
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: High-pressure jets (may spread product)
Fire Hazards: Combustible under strong heat, fine powder can form explosive dust clouds
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective clothing
Special Procedures: Use caution due to possibility of airborne powder and reduced visibility

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Avoid breathing dust, use protective gloves and eye protection
Spill Cleanup Methods: Vacuum or sweep spilled product, avoid making dust; dispose in closed container
Environmental Precautions: Prevent bulk release to water drains; collect debris for organic waste
Emergency Procedures: Isolate spill area, ventilate if indoors, inform relevant personnel
Disposal: Clean up residue thoroughly to avoid slips and microbial growth, discard in compliance with local regulations

Handling and Storage

Safe Handling: Avoid creating and breathing dust, wash hands before eating, refrain from direct contact if allergic to mushrooms
Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, keep tightly sealed to avoid moisture absorption
Incompatibles: Keep away from strong oxidizers, chemicals, and moisture
Handling Practices: Use utensils or gloves for bulk handling, minimize skin contact
Special Requirements: Check expiration date, discard product with signs of spoilage, mold, or unusual odor

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limits: Not established for natural mushroom
Engineering Controls: Adequate ventilation, localized exhaust if producing dust
Personal Protection: Dust mask/respirator for sensitive users or high-volume handling
Hand Protection: Gloves for allergy-prone individuals
Eye Protection: Safety goggles around airborne powder
Hygiene Measures: Wash thoroughly after handling, do not eat or drink at workstation
Other Protective Equipment: Apron or lab coat to prevent skin contact
