SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

Several direct acting mutagens were tested for mutagenic activity in adult Drosophila melanogaster when administered in feeding or as an injected dose. An inhibitor or cytochrome p450, 1-phenylimidazole, administered at concentrations of 2.5, 4 and 10 mmol, was not mutagenic in Drosophila. Methyl-p-toluenesulfonate applied orally was a weak mutagen. When administered simultaneously with 1-phenylimidazole, a concentration dependent increase was noted in mutagenic activity of methyl-p-toluenesulfonate. Following injection, mutagenesis by methyl-p-toluenesulfonate was considerable. Ethyl-p-toluenesulfonate demonstrated marginal mutagenesis in Drosophila when orally applied but was decidedly mutagenic on injection. Simultaneous treatment with 4 mmol 1-phenylimidazole and 1 mmole of ethyl-p-toluenesulfonate did not alter mutagenesis nor did treatment with diethylmaleate (glutathione depletion). Combined treatment with 2 mmol ethyl-p-toluenesulfonate and 2 mmol 1-phenylimidazole produced a statistically significant increase in mutagenesis. /It was concluded/ that weak mutagenesis by p-toluenesulfonates after feeding experiments compared to considerable effects after injection suggests metabolic deactivation in the gut.

The carcinogenic activity of 12 direct alkylating substances was tested in 535 BD rats. Local sarcomas were produced by the subcutaneous injections once a week of p-toluene sulfonic acid methylester. Only a jew tumors were observed following treatment with p-toluene sulfonic acid ethylester and p-toluenesulfonic acid butylester were not carcinogenic.
