Instant Chemical Hazards & Safety Data
Dr. Lawrence H. Keith
Chemical hazards, toxicity, safety, chemical protective clothing (CPC), and environmental analytical information on selected chemicals are provided for teachers, students, industrial hygienists, and people who may be exposed to them in schools, colleges, homes, or work places. The information here is necessarily brief; however, a thousand times more information than can be accommodated here is available from the Professional PC References / Windows tm Series . We welcome your comments and suggestions for additional chemical information that would help you. We'll try to update this information as time permits..
You may select information from lists of chemicals above. This information has been carefully gathered from many sources and compiled into several electronic publications to make its access more convenient. Information on these electronic publications may also be selected from lists of them above. Each is published by Instant Reference Sources, Inc. and Digital Liaisons in Austin, Texas. And, when you are finished browsing this information, I've provided a few useful links to other sources of chemical and safety information that you may visit.

Instant EPA's Pesticide Facts, published in 1994, provides information from EPA at a fraction of the cost of obtaining this data from EPA's on-line database. It contains information on trade names, use patterns, formulations, chemical and physical properties, toxicological acute and chronic effects, physiological, biochemical, and ecological effects and EPA contacts for over 200 pesticides (both chemical and biological types). We've added hyperlinked glosssaries of acronyns, abbreviations and technical terms to make it easier to use this comprehensive technical database.
