Composition / Information on Ingredients

Chemical Name: Streptavidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase
CAS Number: Streptavidin: 9013-20-1; Horseradish Peroxidase: 9003-99-0
Concentration: Solution, typically 0.1–1 mg/mL (refer to product label for exact concentrations)
Formulation: Aqueous buffer with stabilizers and possibly low concentrations of preservatives (e.g., sodium azide below 0.1%)
Impurities: No significant impurities subject to reporting
Additives: Stabilizing proteins and buffer salts characteristic for conjugate stability

First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms like coughing or respiratory distress persist.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water; use soap if available. Seek medical care for irritation.
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for at least 15 minutes, lifting eyelids. Consult a healthcare provider if irritation or redness remains.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Obtain medical advice if abnormal effects persist.
Symptoms and Effects: Usually minor irritation; rare cases of allergic response possible from protein-based reagents.

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical, as appropriate for surrounding materials
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: No special restrictions known
Special Hazards: Organic protein and buffer components may fuel combustion, generating nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide
Firefighter Protection: Use full protective gear and self-contained breathing apparatus
Hazardous Combustion Products: Smoke, toxic vapors like oxides of nitrogen and carbon

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Wear gloves, protective eyewear, and lab coat. Avoid inhaling vapors or contact with skin and eyes.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent runoff into sewers or water sources; contain spill with absorbent non-combustible material.
Cleanup Methods: Absorb with inert material such as paper towel or diatomaceous earth. Collect in a suitable chemical waste container. Rinse spill area with water and detergent.
Notification Requirements: No specific community notification required unless involved preservative triggers reporting thresholds (e.g., sodium azide).

Handling and Storage

Handling: Wear recommended protective equipment. Open containers in ventilated areas. Minimize exposure to airborne vapors or splashes.
Storage: Store at specified temperature (commonly 2–8°C, do not freeze unless recommended). Keep containers tightly closed. Separate from food and incompatible chemicals.
Incompatibilities: Strong oxidizers, acids, bases, and agents that degrade proteins.
Hygiene Practices: Wash hands after use; avoid eating, drinking, or smoking in laboratory areas.

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits for HRP or streptavidin; monitor for any included preservatives.
Engineering Controls: Use in fume hood or ventilated lab bench.
Personal Protection: Lab coat, disposable gloves (nitrile or equivalent), chemical safety goggles.
Respiratory Protection: Not typically required under normal lab use; employ mask if vapors or aerosols are generated.
Environmental Controls: Do not discharge into drains. Collect and treat contaminated waste.
Workplace Monitoring: Monitor procedures involving large volumes or frequent use for exposure risk.
