St. Louis Nr. Jim Davis Roberts Building June 8, 1955 TOXICITY OF PYPRAUL 600 iW Animal toxicity screening teats on the subjeot com pound have been Initiated. Based on the composition of the fluid as compered to other Pydraul formu lations which have been subjected to animal tests, we do not expeat any significant tooclclty differences. The results obtained In previous studies lead to the conclusion that Pydraul Soo Is probably only slightly toxic from the standpoint of Ingestion of single doeca and should not present a hasard frost the standpoint of absorption through the unbroken skin. Continuous, prolonged Inhalation of vapors should be avoided and this should be easily accomplished due to the low volatility of the fluid at room temperatures and the proposed application for the fluid. Accidental con tact with eye tissues would result undoubtedly In moderetely sever* pain and Irritation but no per manent damage to the eyes. BPViSMB i Slmsr p. Wheeler HONS 095648
