What are the health effects of dichloroethane?
The presence of 1,2-dichloroethane in the environment does not always lead to exposure. You may be exposed to 1,2-dichloroethane by breathing or drinking the substance, or by skin contact with it.
There is limited information on the health effects of long term exposure to high levels of dichloroethane in humans. Some humans exposed to large amounts of this chemical over short periods of time have had nervous system effects including weakness, drowsiness, nausea, dizziness and loss of consciousness. Exposure to high concentrations of Dichloroethane DCE causes adverse effects on the liver, blood and immune system of laboratory animals. Taken together, the human and animal data suggest that long term human exposure to 1,2-DCE may increase the risk for changes in the blood, and for liver, immune system and nervous system toxicity.
