Primary irritant effect:
on the skin: Corrosive effect on skin and mucous membranes.
on the eye: Strong corrosive effect.
Sensitization: No sensitizing effects known.
Subacute to chronic toxicity:
Nitric acid is a corrosive oxidizing acid. The liquid causes burns on contact. Eye contact may cause blindness. Vapors are irritating and cause upper respiratory irritation which may be severe. Corrosive to the teeth and digestive tract on ingestion. Dilute solutions have reduced effects.
Cerium salts increase the blood coagulation rate. Exposure to cerium salts may increase sensitivity to heat, itching and skin lesions. Large doses to experimental animals have caused writhing, ataxia, labored respiration, sedation, hypotension and death by cardiovascular collapse.
Additional toxicological information:
Swallowing will lead to a strong corrosive effect on mouth and throat and to the danger of perforation of esophagus and stomach.
