About this file
This is a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for Cidex OPA Concentrate, a high-level disinfectant product manufactured by Advanced Sterilization Products Inc. The document details that this is a Category 3 flammable liquid containing 20% ethanol and 5.8% phthalaldehyde, with physical properties including a flash point of 90.0°F (32.2°C) and pH of 7.5. The product presents significant hazards including skin irritation, serious eye damage potential, allergic skin reaction risk, and high toxicity to aquatic life.
The SDS outlines comprehensive safety protocols including required personal protective equipment (chemical goggles, face shield, chemical-resistant gloves), storage requirements (well-ventilated area, 15-30°C), and specific emergency procedures for spills and exposure. Notable handling precautions include keeping away from heat/sparks/flames, using explosion-proof equipment, and taking measures against static discharge. The document provides detailed first aid measures, fire-fighting instructions, and disposal guidelines, including that used solution can be discarded down hospital drains per hospital policy while undiluted concentrate must be neutralized with glycine before disposal.

Causes serious eye damage. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. Permanent eye damage including blindness could result. Skin irritation. May cause redness and pain. Sensitization. May cause anaphylactic shock.
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Thermal burns: Flush with water immediately. While flushing, remove clothes which do not adhere to affected area. Call an ambulance. Continue flushing during transport to hospital. Keep victim under observation.
Symptoms may be delayed.
Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Water fog. Alcohol resistant foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash back. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed.
Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk.
Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.
Flammable liquid and vapor.
6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Avoid breathing mist/vapors. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.

7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only non-sparking tools. This product is miscible in water. Prevent product from entering drains.
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal. Following product recovery, flush area with water.
Small Spills: Absorb with earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers for later disposal. Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination.
Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Avoid release to the environment. Inform appropriate managerial or supervisory personnel of all environmental releases. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.
Do not handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight. When using do not smoke. Explosion-proof general and local exhaust ventilation. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Use non-sparking tools and explosion-proof equipment.
Do not get this material in contact with eyes. Avoid contact with skin and clothing. Avoid breathing mist/vapors. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid release to the environment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices.
Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Prevent electrostatic charge build-up by using common bonding and grounding techniques. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Store in tightly closed container. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep in an area equipped with sprinklers. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Recommended storage temperature: 15 - 30 °C.

General hygiene considerations
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Nitrile or butyl rubber gloves are recommended. Be aware that the liquid may penetrate the gloves. Frequent change is advisable. Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove supplier.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing. Use of an impervious apron is recommended.
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn.
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
When using do not smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace.
