Administrative data
First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Not applicable.
Emergency measure - Eyes: Rinse immediately with plenty of water.
Emergency measure - Skin: Rinse with water.
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Not toxic after oral ingestion.
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: water, carbon dioxide, foam, dry powder
Product arising from burning: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide
Product determined by test: N
Protective equipment: The substance is a sugar molecule and will not yield NOx
products upon combustion. No special protection necessary,
just regular fire fighting equipment.
Accidental release measures
Emergency measures in case of spillage: Dam large quantities and pump them into a container. For the
remaining amount use absorbent material. Small quantities
can be flushed with plenty of water into the sewage system.
Handling and storage
Handling: Avoid eye contact. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately
with plenty of water.
Storage: Should be stored refridgerated (4-8°C in the dark). Avoid
temperatures >40 C to prevent a change of colour.
Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Polycanister 1 kg
Polycanister 10 kg
Polycanister 25 kg
Material of polycanisters: HD-polyethylene

Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery of intact substance after spill is not possible,
because of decomposition.
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Dilution with plenty of water, flush into sewage system
(contains only physiological and biodegradable compounds).
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Dilution with plenty of water, flush into sewage system
(contains only physiological and biodegradable compounds).
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Dilution with plenty of water, flush into sewage system
(contains only physiological and biodegradable compounds).
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery of intact substance after spill is not possible,
because of decomposition.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Dilution with plenty of water, flush into sewage system
(contains only physiological and biodegradable compounds).
