First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move affected person to fresh air, seek medical attention if symptoms such as coughing or difficulty breathing persist
Skin Contact: Wash area with water and mild soap, remove contaminated clothing, get medical help if irritation continues
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with plenty of water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, consult physician if irritation develops
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting, get medical help if large amounts swallowed or symptoms appear
Acute Symptoms: Gastrointestinal disturbance may include bloating or mild diarrhea if excessive amounts are consumed
Special Notes: No antidote required, treat symptoms supportively

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide
Specific Hazards: Combustible dust accumulation can present explosion risk, generate CO or CO2 if exposed to fire
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing
Special Procedures: Use water spray to cool unopened containers, avoid raising dust clouds, remain upwind of fire

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Wear dust mask and safety goggles, avoid creating airborne dust
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into sewers, surface water, and soil drains in bulk quantities
Cleanup Methods: Sweep up and shovel spilled material, place in suitable dust-tight containers for recovery or disposal, clean spill area with water to avoid slip hazard
Handling of Waste: Dispose recovered product according to local regulations
Reference to Other Sections: For personal protection refer to Section “Exposure Controls and Personal Protection”

Handling and Storage

Handling: Avoid generating dust, use adequate local exhaust ventilation, use personal protection when handling large quantities
Hygiene Practices: Keep hands clean, do not eat or drink in the work area, wash hands thoroughly after handling
Storage Conditions: Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area, keep packages tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents
Protect from: Excessive heat, direct sunlight, high humidity, water contact

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limits: Not established for isomaltulose, control dust below 10 mg/m3 (total nuisance dust)
Engineering Controls: Apply local exhaust ventilation to minimize dust exposure, provide adequate general ventilation
Respiratory Protection: Use dust mask if exposure risk exists, or when cleaning up spills
Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields if dust may contact eyes
Hand Protection: Wear disposable gloves if prolonged contact possible
Skin Protection: Protective clothing recommended for bulk handling
Environmental Exposure Controls: Use containment measures to prevent flood or bulk discharge into environment
