Potential Health Effects: Minor skin or eye irritation with direct, extended contact; avoid ingestion or inhalation; unlikely to cause significant acute health effects in typical settings
Precautionary Statements: Avoid unnecessary contact with skin and eyes; use standard laboratory safety measures
Hazard Statements: Not considered hazardous by OSHA or EU regulation 1272/2008/EC
Other Hazards: Direct contact may cause mild transient irritation due to chemical nature of preservatives (e.g., DMSO)
Key Ingredients: Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), buffered saline solutions, human serum albumin or recombinant analogs (component lists may vary by catalog number)
Chemical Identity: DMSO: CAS 67-68-5, Albumin (human or recombinant): CAS varies by source
Concentration: DMSO (5%–10%); Albumin or synthetic proteins (1%–10%); other buffers and salts (0.1%–5%)
Impurities: Quality controlled to limit biologically significant contaminants; supplied sterile-filtration grade
Additional Notes: Free of animal-origin components unless labeled; check lot-specific certificates for exact composition profiles
Skin Contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water; remove contaminated clothing
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes cautiously with water for several minutes; seek medical attention for persistent irritation
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air; seek medical attention if symptoms persist
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water; do not induce vomiting; seek medical guidance
Signs/Symptoms: Mild irritation, redness, transient discomfort
Flammability: Non-flammable aqueous solution
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide as appropriate for the surrounding material
Hazardous Combustion Products: Limited; may emit carbon oxides or sulfur oxides if heated excessively
Special Protective Equipment: Standard fire-fighting gear; self-contained breathing apparatus as a precaution with large quantities
Explosion Data: Not explosive
Personal Protection: Use gloves, eye protection, and lab coats
Spill Containment: Stop leak if safe; absorb with inert material (e.g., paper towels, absorbent pads)
Clean-Up Procedure: Wipe up, place in closed container for disposal; disinfect spill area with suitable cleaner
Ventilation: Ensure adequate air circulation
Environmental Protection: Prevent large quantities from entering drains or open water sources
Handling Precautions: Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing; use in a controlled laboratory environment
Storage Conditions: Store between -20°C and -80°C or as specified; avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents; check for incompatibility before mixing with other chemicals
Instructions for Open Containers: Reseal tightly after use; label with date opened
Safe Transfer: Use pipettes or dispensers; minimize splash risk
Engineering Controls: Use biological safety cabinet or fume hood in case of aerosol risk
Eye Protection: Safety goggles or face shield
Glove Type: Nitrile or latex gloves
Clothing: Standard lab coat
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after handling; do not eat or drink in laboratory
Exposure Limits: DMSO: ACGIH TLV not established, follow institutional guidelines
Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow, clear liquid
Odor: Characteristic mild, related to DMSO
pH: 6.8–7.4
Melting Point/Freezing Point: Below -10°C (due to DMSO and buffer)
Boiling Point: Not applicable (aqueous solution)
