                               EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Not available.

Potential Health Effects
     Eye:
          Causes eye irritation.  Exposure to particulates or solution may
          cause conjunctivitis, ulceration, and corneal abnormalities.
     Skin:
          Causes irritation with burning pain, itching, and redness.
     Ingestion:
          May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
          diarrhea. May cause liver damage.
     Inhalation:
          Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause ulceration and
          perforation of the nasal septum if inhaled in excessive quantities.
     Chronic:
          May cause reproductive and fetal effects. Individuals with Wilson's
          disease are unable to metabolize copper.  Thus, copper accumulates
          in various tissues and may result in liver, kidney, and brain damage.

          unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by
          mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid.
     Inhalation:
          Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing,
          give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
          Get medical aid.
