ABSTRACT
These pulmonary agents are hazardous through inhalation, skin and eye exposure, ingestion, and abraded skin (e.g., breaks in the skin or penetration of the skin by debris).
Exposure Hazards
Contact with agents produces eye and skin irritation at low levels. Lethal concentrations (LC50s) for inhalation of these agents are as low as
380 parts per million for a 10-min exposure.
