Section 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful in contact with skin and if swallowed. May cause cancer.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material. Exposure may cause irritation characterized by redness, dryness, and inflammation. If absorbed, may cause symptoms similar to those for ingestion.
Ingestion:
Causes gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause central nervous system depression. May cause disturbed blood electrolyte balance. May be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of dust causes irritation of the nose and throat, coughing and sneezing. Causes irritation of the mucous membrane and upper respiratory tract.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause adverse reproductive effects. Laboratory experiments have resulted in mutagenic effects.
Prolonged exposure or exposure to high concentrations may cause eye damage.
Harmful in contact with skin and if swallowed. May cause cancer.

Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Ecotoxicity:
CAS# 57-13-6: If released to water, urea can degrade readily through biotic hydrolysis as demonstrated by various screening studies. The presence of naturally-occurring phytoplankton increases the degradation rate because phytoplankton use urea as a nitrogen source and because urea is decomposed by phytoplankton photosynthesis. In phytoplankton-rich waters, degradation occurs much faster in sunlight than in the dark. Abiotic hydrolysis of urea occurs very slowly in relation to biotic hydrolysis.
