Hazard / Symptom
Hazard May cause harm to the unborn child. Possible risk of impaired fertility. Danger of cumulative effects. Possible risks of irreversible effects. Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.
The following applies to lead compounds in general Due to the poor absorbability via the gastrointestinal tract, only very high doses lead to acute cases of intoxication. After a latency period of several hours, metallic taste, nausea, vomiting, and colics occur, in many instances followed by shock. Chronic uptake causes peripheral muscular weakness ("drop-wrist"), anaemia, and central-nervous disorders. The information available suggests that an embryotoxic potential must be considered probable. Women of child-bearing age should not be exposed to the substance over longer periods of time (observe critical threshold).
