Section 4. First Aid Measures
    Eye Contact        Check for and remove any contact lenses. Flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting    
    the upper and lower eyelids. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention. Seek medical attention in case of
    eye contact with a radioactive material.
    Skin Contact        In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Remove    
    contaminated clothing and shoes. Cold water may be used.Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes
    before reuse. Get medical attention.
    Serious Skin Contact        Wash with a disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream. Seek medical    
    attention in case of skin contact with a radioactive material.
    Inhalation        If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get    
    medical attention.
    Serious Inhalation        Evacuate the victim to a safe area as soon as possible. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or    
    waistband. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
    resuscitation. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
    resuscitation. Seek medical attention in case of inhalation of a radioactive material.
    Ingestion        Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an    
    unconscious person. If large quantities of this material are swallowed, call a physician immediately. Loosen tight
    clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
    Serious Ingestion        Not available.

Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
    Engineering Controls        Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below    
    recommended exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, fume or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to
    airborne contaminants below the exposure limit.
    Personal Protection        Splash goggles. Lab coat. Dust respirator. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent.    
    Gloves. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product.
    Personal Protection in Case of Splash goggles. Full suit. Dust respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should be used
    a Large Spill        to avoid inhalation of the product. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist    
    BEFORE handling this product.

Section 11. Toxicological Information
    Routes of Entry        Inhalation. Ingestion.    
    Toxicity to Animals        For Thorium Nitrate Anhydrous, (CAS number 13823-29-5):    
    Acute oral toxicity (LD50): 1760 mg/kg [Mouse].
    Chronic Effects on Humans May cause damage to the following organs: kidneys, lungs, bone marrow.
    Other Toxic Effects on        Hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of ingestion, of inhalation.    
    Humans
    Special Remarks on        Not available.    
    Toxicity to Animals
    Special Remarks on        May cause adverse reproductive effects. Thorium reproductive effects, if they occur, are likely to be mediated by    
    Chronic Effects on Humans        ionizing radiation.    
    Thorium is a suspected carcinogen. Thorium Nitrate emits radiation which could cause cancer, but no evidence
    of cancer has yet been found.
    May affect genetic material (mutagenic)
    Special Remarks on other        Acute Potential Health Effects:    
    Toxic Effects on Humans        Skin: Causes skin irritation with a rash, or burning feeling on contact.    
    Eyes: Causes eye irritation.
    Inhalation: It can irritate the respiratory tract (nose, throat).
    Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. It may cause nausea, vomiting, dizziness, abdominal cramps, ulceration
    or bleeding from the small intestine, bloody diarrhea, weakness, convulsions, general depression, headache,
    mental impairment.
    Chronic Potential Health Effects:
    Skin: May cause dermatitis.
    Ingestion and Inhalation: Repeated or prolonged exposure may affect the liver, kidneys, lungs, bone marrow. It
    may reduce the ability of the bone marrow to make blood cells. Prolonged or repeated inhalation may cause
    scarring of the lungs.
    Note: Thorium can accumulate in the bones, lungs and lymph system. Thorium that is absorbed into the body
    can remain for long periods of time and increase the risk of radiation induced cancer in tissues where it is
    retained.
