ToxicityHuman Health Effects
- The International Agency for Research on Cancer lists ethylbenzene as possibly carcinogenic.
- Exposure to high concentrations can cause people to become, dizzy, lightheaded, and to pass out.
- Chronic exposure through the air has been shown to cause hearing kidney damage in animals.
- Ethylbenzene is considered the most sever irritant of all of the benzene compounds.
- Direct skin exposure to liquid can cause first degree burns.
- Toxic to the central nervous system
- Irritant of mucous membranes and eyes
- Prolonged exposure to vapors may cause upper respiratory tract irritation, hematological (blood) disorders, and functional disorders
- Populations at higher risk of effects include people with pulmonary, liver, blood, kidney, and nervous system disorders as well as existing skin conditions.
- In a study, it was detected in 8 of 8 samples of mother's milk from around the United States.
Environmental Effects
- Moderate acute toxicity to algae, aquatic invertebrates, and fish.
- Low threat of bioconcentration in aquatic organisms
- Half-life: 55 hours in air; 5 days in seawater; 4 days in groundwater.
