Risk of corneal clouding.
The following applies to aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbons in general: systemic effect:
narcosis, cardiovascular disorders. Toxic effect on liver, kidneys.
Dichloromethane is metabolized in the body producing carbon monoxide which increases
and sustains carboxyhemoglobin levels in the blood, reducing the oxygen-carrying capacity
of the blood.
To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not
been thoroughly investigated
