Hazard Communication

Toxicological Information

The MSDS should also provide information on toxicity testing of the material or its components. This information is intended for medical professionals, occupational health and safety professionals, and toxicologists.

This information contains background data used to determine the hazards presented in the “Potential Health Effects” under the MSDS section Hazard Identification, such as:

Acute data
Subchronic data
Special studies such as epidemiology, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and neurotoxicity.
