Manufacturer Information: Company name, address, and emergency phone number found on shipping documents, supplied through supplier safety contacts or your procurement documentation
Restrictions on Use: Not intended for pharmaceutical or veterinary applications unless specially approved with validated documentation
GHS Classification: Not classified as a hazardous substance by OSHA, no major hazardous label required under GHS regulations
Primary Hazards: May cause mild irritation to eyes or skin; ingestion at standard nutritional dosages shows no acute health effects in healthy individuals; large-scale inhalation of dust can cause respiratory irritation
Label Elements: Not required for non-hazardous substances
Hazard Statements: No significant hazards identified in handling typical forms, though sensitive individuals may experience allergic responses or gastrointestinal discomfort
Precautionary Statements: Avoid dust formation, avoid inhalation or unnecessary contact with skin and eyes
Chemical Name: L-Carnitine Tartrate
Common Name: L-Carnitine Tartrate
Content: Typically over 97% active ingredient
Additives/Impurities: Small quantities of residual moisture may be present, intended to be negligible for food and supplement applications
Hazardous Components: No hazardous components present above threshold limits as per OSHA and GHS regulations
Inhalation: Remove exposed person to fresh air. Encourage slow breathing until symptoms subside. Medical intervention rarely required unless persistent discomfort arises.
Skin Contact: Rinse exposed skin thoroughly with water and mild soap. Seek medical advice if redness or discomfort increases.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes gently with plenty of water for minimum 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and continue rinsing. Medical evaluation recommended for ongoing irritation.
Ingestion: Drink water to dilute in the mouth. If large amounts ingested or symptoms arise, seek medical attention. No anticipated toxic effects at standard supplementing levels.
Potential Symptoms: Mild itching, stomach upset or minor respiratory discomfort from large dust exposure
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: None known for L-Carnitine Tartrate
Fire-Fighting Instructions: Use equipment suitable for the surrounding fire. Chemical itself does not typically burn easily, but packaging may ignite.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Possible release of carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides or other toxic vapors in case of fire
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Personal Precautions: Wear standard industrial dust protection including gloves and goggles; avoid accumulation of dust in enclosed spaces
Environmental Precautions: Prevent powder from entering storm drains or water courses in large quantities
Cleanup Methods: Sweep up spills using tools to avoid dispersing dust; place material in labeled containers for disposal; ventilate the area
Reporting: No specific regulatory requirement unless combined with other hazardous substances or large-scale loss
Handling: Minimize dust generation, keep containers tightly sealed, use in well-ventilated areas; avoid direct contact with skin or eyes
Storage: Store away from strong oxidizing agents or moisture-sensitive chemicals; keep in cool, dry, well-ventilated location; avoid excessive heat or freezing conditions
Hygiene Requirements: Wash hands after handling and before eating, drinking, or smoking; do not eat, drink or smoke in process areas
Packaging: Package integrity should be maintained to prevent contamination or product degradation; use original or approved secondary containers
Occupational Exposure Limits: No exposure limits established for this compound
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation to minimize airborne dust; process enclosures or closed handling recommended for bulk volumes
Personal Protective Equipment: Protective gloves and safety goggles recommended at minimum; dust mask required in locations where dust generation is likely
Other Protective Measures: Safety showers, eyewash stations accessible in the workplace
Physical State: White to off-white crystalline powder
Odor: Mild, characteristic of organic acids
pH: Aqueous solution is mildly acidic, commonly 3.0 - 4.0
Melting Point: Decomposes above 200°C
Solubility: Soluble in water, negligible solubility in most organic solvents
Boiling Point: Not applicable (decomposes before boiling)
Vapor Pressure: Negligible at room temperature
Density: 1.28–1.40 g/cm³
Partition Coefficient: Not determined
Flash Point: Not considered flammable under normal conditions
Explosive Properties: Not explosive, though dust can form combustible mixtures if airborne in sufficient concentration
Chemical Stability: Stable at standard temperatures and pressures in original packaging
Conditions to Avoid: Excessive moisture, high heat, direct sunlight; contact with oxidizing agents
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizers, acids or bases; reacts with moisture
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Thermal breakdown can release irritating or toxic gases including carbon oxides and nitrogen oxides
Polymerization: No risk of hazardous polymerization
Potential Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, skin or eye contact, ingestion
Acute Toxicity: Low toxicity by ingestion or inhalation in standard usage; high doses could lead to gastrointestinal upset such as diarrhea, stomach cramps
Chronic Effects: No definitive evidence linking standard consumption to chronic health conditions
Skin/Eye Irritation: Mild, resolves quickly with rinsing or removal of substance
Sensitization: Allergic reactions rare, mostly in sensitive individuals
Carcinogenicity/Mutagenicity: No data indicating carcinogenic or mutagenic risk documented in human studies
Reproductive Toxicity: Animal studies have not shown reproductive risk at standard supplement doses
Ecotoxicity: Not expected to cause adverse effects in aquatic or terrestrial organisms in small-scale accidental releases
Persistence and Degradability: Readily biodegradable by environmental microbes
Bioaccumulative Potential: Not bioaccumulative according to current research and partitioning coefficients
Mobility in Soil: Water soluble, likely to dilute quickly in soil and water
Other Adverse Effects: No evidence points to long-term environmental risks from controlled use and disposal
Disposal Methods: Collect non-reusable material in appropriate containers and dispose of according to municipal, state and local regulations; small quantities diluted in water can usually be disposed of in regular municipal waste
Packaging Disposal: Recycle or dispose of original containers and packaging as per local waste management guidance
Precautions: Avoid discharge into surface water, sanitation systems or uncontained landfills in bulk quantities; limit environmental exposure
UN Number: Not regulated as dangerous good
Proper Shipping Name: L-Carnitine Tartrate
Transport Hazard Class: Not classified as hazardous for any major international transport regulations including DOT, IATA, IMDG
