Notes
The media do not contain any raw materials of direct animal-origin or materials that have been produced using animal-origin components. Components have not been in contact with material of animal origin during processing and therefore pose no TSE risk
First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Assure fresh air breathing. Allow the victim to rest.
Remove affected clothing and wash all exposed skin area with mild soap and water, followed by warm water rinse.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Obtain medical attention if pain, blinking or redness persist.
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Obtain emergency medical attention.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Wash hands and other exposed areas with mild soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking and when leaving work. Provide good ventilation in process area to prevent formation of vapour.
Keep only in the original container in a cool place away from direct (sun)light. Keep container closed when not in use. After opening the container, the product can be safely used up to 7 days when sterile conditions are maintained and the products are stored at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Do not use after expiry date. Content cannot be re-sterilized.
Wash hands and other exposed areas with mild soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking and when leaving work.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety. Avoid all unnecessary exposure.
Wear protective gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to meet the specifications of EU-directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN374 derived from it.
Face shield and safety glasses. Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166 (EU).
Wear appropriate mask. Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Wear fire/flame resistant/retardant clothing. Complete suit protecting against chemicals, flame retardant antistatic protective clothing. The type of protection must be selected according to the concentration and volume of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
