Personal protective equipment
General Protective and Hygienic Measures:
The usual precautionary measures for handling chemicals should be followed.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Wear protective equipment (PPE) appropriate to the circumstances.
Do not eat, drink, smoke while working.
Provide appropriate ventilation.
Breathing Equipment:
Not anticipated for normal clinical environment.
In non-routine exposure conditions, where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate, use
respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US)
or CEN (EU).
Self-contained breathing apparatus should be available for emergency use.
Protection of Hands:
Wear impervious gloves if the potential exists for dermal contact.
Material of Gloves:
Latex, Latex / Nitrile or Nitrile Gloves.
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality
and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the
degradation.
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the mixture.
Penetration Time of Glove Material:
The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be
observed.
Eye Protection:
Wear safety glasses (ANSI Z87.1)
Body Protection:
If the risk assessment deems it necessary, wear protective coveralls to prevent contact with the body, due to the
splashing and spraying of liquid.
Limitation and Supervision of Exposure into the Environment: See also Section 7.
Additional Information about Design of Technical Systems: No further data; see Section 7.

Primary irritant effect:
By Inhalation: Inhaling small doses of aerosolized material would not be expected to result in symptoms.
By Ingestion:
Inadvertent ingestion of trace amounts of this material would not be expected to result in symptoms.
on the skin:
Material contains low concentration of components that are mild irritants or possible irritants.
It may have potential to cause mild irritation, however , moderate or severe irritation is not expected.
on the eyes: No irritation effects reported. However, the product should be considered as a potential irritant.
CMR effects (carcinogenity, mutagenicity and toxicity for reproduction):
Sensitization: The product can cause inflammation in people allergic to gadolinium and its compounds.
Germ Cell Mutagenicity:
GADOTERIDOL has not demonstrated a genotoxic activity in reverse mutation test up performed using
Salmonella bacteria T. and E. C., in a mutation assay on mouse lymphoma, in an in vitro cytogenetic assay
measuring chromosomal aberrations in ovarian cells hamster, nor in the in vivo micronucleus assay on mice at
doses of 5 mmol / kg.
Carcinogenicity: The GADOTERIDOL is not tested for carcinogenic properties.
Reproductive Toxicity:
The GADOTERIDOL didn't show teratogenic activity in rats when administered for 12-day gestation period at
doses 20 times higher than recommended for Human. An increase in spontaneous motor activity was observed
in infants. At high doses, the product has caused maternal toxicity and there was an increase of
postimplantation loss.
In rabbits, There was no evidence of teratogenic activity in rabbits at doses tested up to 1.5 mmol/kg or 840
mg/kg
In rabbits, doses 20 times higher than the maximum doses recommended for humans, and administered
intravenously for 13 days during gestation, have increased the incidence of miscarriages and premature births,
while, there was no evidence of reproductive effects in rats at doses up to 1.5 mmol/kg or 840 mg/kg.

Human data are not available. In studies with rats and dogs performed over a period of one month to doses
approximately 3 times higher than therapeutic effects were evident in kidney (eg, vacuolation of renal tubular
epithelium).
These effects are reversible. The product does not is mutagenic. Other health effects have not been fully
evaluated.

None of the ingredients is listed.
NTP (National Toxicology Program)
None of the ingredients is listed.
OSHA-Ca (Occupational Safety & Health Administration)
None of the ingredients is listed.
Additional toxicological information:
When this product is used clinically, patients with a history of renal or hepatic disease, seizure, asthma or
allergic respiratory diseases, and pregnant or breast feeding women are asked to inform their physician of
these conditions.
The GADOTERIDOL was classified by the FDA in the "Pregnancy Category C" because of the effects
observed in animals treated with very high doses intravenously. We recommended the clinical use during
pregnancy only when the benefit prevails over potential risk to the fetus.
It must be borne in mind that the doses administered for medical reasons are much higher than those due to
exposure in the workplace.
Any Eventual Delayed Effect after Prolonged Exposure:
Repeated and prolonged exposure to skin may cause skin irritation
