PINE OIL Chemwatch Material Safety Data Sheet Issue Date: 10-Dec-2007 CHEMWATCH 1272 XCA947TC Version No:5 CD 2008/4 Page 3 of 14 Section 4 - HAZARD IDENTIFICATION SWALLOWED » Swallowing of the liquid may cause aspiration of vomit into the lungs with the risk of haemorrhaging, pulmonary oedema, progressing to chemical pneumonitis; serious consequences may result. Signs and symptoms of chemical (aspiration) pneumonitis may include coughing, gasping, choking, burning of the mouth, difficult breathing, and bluish coloured skin (cyanosis). » Accidental ingestion of the material may be damaging to the health of the individual. » Terpenes and their oxygen-containing counterparts, the terpenoids, produce a variety of physiological effects. Pine oil monoterpenes, for example, produce a haemorrhagic gastritis characterised by stomach pain and bleeding and vomiting. Systemic effects of pine oils include weakness and central nervous depression, excitement, loss of balance, headache, with hypothermia and respiratory failure. » Central nervous system (CNS) depression may include nonspecific discomfort, symptoms of giddiness, headache, dizziness, nausea, anaesthetic effects, slowed reaction time, slurred speech and may progress to unconsciousness. Serious poisonings may result in respiratory depression and may be fatal. » Taken internally the essential oils exert a mild irritant effect on the mucous membranes of the mouth and digestive tract which induces a feeling of warmth and increases salivation. Excessive oral doses irritate the gastro-intestinal tract and may cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Occasional irritation of the urinary tract and aggravation of pre-existing inflammatory conditions have been reported. Other effects include dysuria, haematuria, unconsciousness and shallow respiration. Complications arising from ingestion of volatile oils include anuria, pulmonary oedema, and bronchial pneumonia. Central nervous system depression may lead to stupor and possible respiratory failure whilst central system stimulation may lead to excitement and convulsions. Pathologic findings include renal degeneration and intense congestion and oedema in the lungs, brain and gastric mucosa. Excretion takes place through the lungs, skin and kidneys. Most essential oils are reported to be ecbolic but abortions cannot be induced at safe doses. EYE » Although the liquid is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn). SKIN » Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either produces inflammation of the skin in a substantial number of individuals following direct contact, and/or produces significant inflammation when applied to the healthy intact skin of animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation being present twenty-four hours or more after the end of the exposure period. Skin irritation may also be present after prolonged or repeated exposure; this may result in a form of contact dermatitis (nonallergic). The dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema) which may progress to blistering (vesiculation), scaling and thickening of the epidermis. At the microscopic level there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer of the skin (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis. » Skin contact is not thought to have harmful health effects (as classified under EC Directives); the material may still produce health damage following entry through wounds, lesions or abrasions. » When applied to intact skin essential oils have an irritant and rubefacient action, causing first a sensation of warmth and smarting followed by mild local anesthesia. They have been used as counter-irritants and cutaneous stimulants in the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions and to relieve neuralgia and rheumatic pain. Care should be taken to avoid blistering. These oils may also produce sensitisation. » It is likely that older pine oils become irritants from the build up of peroxides of delta- 3-carene and limonene etc. » Entry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected. » Application of d-limonene produced moderate irritation to both intact and abraded skin. High purity d-limonene does not cause significant allergic reaction in guinea pigs; d-limonene, exposed to air for 2-months, sensitised the animals and it continued... PINE OIL Chemwatch Material Safety Data Sheet Issue Date: 10-Dec-2007 CHEMWATCH 1272 XCA947TC Version No:5 CD 2008/4 Page 4 of 14 Section 4 - HAZARD IDENTIFICATION is surmised that allergenic compounds are formed after prolonged air contact. In human patch testing, weak or moderate reactions (erythema, swelling) have been observed. Positive eczematous responses to purified limonene were observed in 5 of 16 previously sensitised to oil of turpentine. In one study, a 39-year old male immersed one hand in a jar of solvent, ensuring that inhalation exposure was minimal. After only few minutes of exposure, the subject experienced painful itching and burning. Itching decreased after the exposure but burning continued for 10 minutes. Swelling disappeared after 100 minutes. Six hours post-exposure, a purpuric eruption was observed; this persisted for several weeks. Blood concentrations during skin exposure were low compared to those during inhalation exposure. INHALED » Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be accompanied by narcosis, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack of coordination and vertigo. » Inhalation of aerosols (mists, fumes), generated by the material during the course of normal handling, may produce serious damage to the health of the individual. » Limited evidence or practical experience suggests that the material may produce irritation
