Chemical Name LD50 Oral LD50 Dermal LC50 Inhalation.
Glycerin 12600 mg/kg ( Rat ) 21900 mg/kg ( Rat )
Methyl alcohol 5628 mg/kg ( Rat )15800 mg/kg ( Rabbit ) 64000 ppm ( Rat ) 4 h; 83.2 mg/L (Rat ) 4 h.
Silver bromide
Excessive absorption of silver compounds from chronic overexposure may result in argyria, a bluish-gray discoloration of the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes.
Methyl alcohol.
Prolonged and repeated exposure to high vapour concentrations,skin absorption or ingestion of methyl alcohol may result in visual disturbances, metabolic acidosis, headache, giddiness, nausea, insomnia, gastric disturbance, dizziness, and slow breathing. There have been several cases reported of blindness, coma and death due to the ingestion of methyl alcohol.
