Identified Uses
Sterilant. For professional use only. This product is intended to be used by professional nursing or technical staff trained in the reprocessing of medical devices for sterility. The packaged SYSTEM 1E Sterilant Concentrate consists of two parts: a liquid component (aka: PAA Concentrate Solution, Compartment A) and an ABC Builders powder (Compartment B), when mixed together, they form a SYSTEM 1E Sterilant Use Dilution which is a sterilant solution intended to be used in a SYSTEM 1E Processor for reprocessing endoscopes and other surgical instruments. The components of the sterilant are provided in a single sealed cup. Thus the operator is not in contact with the sterilant or its pre-mixed concentrates under normal use conditions.

First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
When symptoms occur: go into open air and ventilate suspected area. Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
Symptoms: Inhalation may cause immediate severe irritation progressing quickly to chemical burns.
Remove contaminated clothing. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 60 minutes. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Symptoms: Corrosive. Causes burns.
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing for at least 60 minutes. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
Symptoms: Causes serious eye damage.
Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
Symptoms: Swallowing a small quantity of this material will result in serious health hazard.
Immediate Medical Attention
Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire. Water spray, fog (flooding amounts).
Use of heavy stream of water may spread fire.
Flammable liquid and vapour. Heating may cause a fire. May cause fire or explosion; strong oxidizer. May form flammable/explosive vapour-air mixture. Heat may build pressure, rupturing closed containers, spreading fire and increasing risk of burns and injuries. Heating may cause an explosion. May cause or intensify fire; oxidizer. Contains an organic peroxide; keep away from incompatible materials.
Use water spray or fog for cooling exposed containers. In case of major fire and large quantities: Evacuate area. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion.
Firefighter Protection
Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Upon arrival at the scene, a first responder is expected to recognize the presence of dangerous goods, protect oneself and the public, secure the area, and call for the assistance of trained personnel as soon as conditions permit.
Do not allow product to spread into the environment.
Clean up spills immediately and dispose of waste safely. Dilute with water. Soak up diluted material with inert solids or flush with large amount of water.
Materials: inert solids
