4First-aid measures

First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move the person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult or symptoms persist, call a POISON CENTER or doctor.
Skin: Take off contaminated clothing. Wash the skin with plenty of soap and water. If irritation or a rash develops, get medical advice.
Eyes: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do; continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists, get medical advice.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. Call a POISON CENTER or doctor if you feel unwell.

Most Important Symptoms And Effects

No specific symptoms are known. Pharmacologically active material: systemic effects consistent with its mechanism of action are possible after accidental injection, ingestion or absorption.

Likely Routes Of Exposure

Inhalation of dust, skin and eye contact when the vial is opened or the powder is weighed; ingestion through contaminated hands; accidental injection when reconstituted solutions are drawn into syringes.

5Fire-fighting measures

Fire Fighting Information: Combustible organic solid; finely divided powder may form dust clouds. Not flammable in the quantities supplied.

6Accidental release measures

Spill And Clean Up Procedures: Avoid dust formation. Dampen spilled powder with water, wipe up with absorbent material, place in a sealed container for disposal and clean the area with water and detergent.

7Handling and storage

Safe Handling: Open vials only in a clean area. Avoid generating or inhaling dust; weigh or reconstitute inside a ventilated enclosure when the full contents are handled as a dry powder. Reconstitute by adding diluent slowly to the vial wall; do not shake. Wash hands after handling.
Safe Storage: Store the sealed vial at the temperature stated in Section 9 (typically −20 °C for peptides, 2–8 °C for proteins), desiccated and protected from light. Allow the vial to reach room temperature before opening to avoid condensation. Reconstituted solutions: 2–8 °C, protected from light; use within the period established by your laboratory.
Storage Temperature: −20 °C (sealed vial), desiccated and protected from light; 2–8 °C acceptable for short periods
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents (Cayman) — methionine residue is oxidation-prone
