Product catalog summary
Manufacturer and Product Identity
Biomerica, Inc. manufactures Celiac Disease Kits, including Transglutaminase ELISA Kit (Code #7044), Antigliadin IgG ELISA Kit (Code #7040), and Antigliadin IgA ELISA Kit (Code #7042). Contact details include a phone number for emergencies: 800 535-5053.
Composition and Ingredients
The kits contain stable preparations with hazardous substances such as Sulfuric Acid (3.0%), Blood Components (<1%), Sodium Azide (<0.1%), and Bromo-nitro-dioxane (<1%).
Hazards Identification
Potential biohazards exist due to human serum components, requiring Biosafety Level 2 handling. Chemical hazards include Sodium Azide, which can form explosive compounds, and Bromo-nitro-dioxane, which is harmful if inhaled or ingested.
First Aid Measures
For skin contact, wash with soap and water. For eye contact, flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention. Inhalation requires fresh air and possibly oxygen. Ingestion requires rinsing the mouth and medical attention.
Fire and Explosion Data
Use chemical or water fire extinguishers. No unusual fire hazards are known, but concentrated Sulfuric Acid has a health rating of 3.
Accidental Spill Measures
Wear protective gear and contain spills. Neutralize Stop Solution spills with a dilute base and clean with disposable towels. Use a 10% bleach solution for calibrator spills.
Handling and Storage
Use personal protective equipment and avoid contact with skin or eyes. Store reagents at 2-8°C in designated refrigerators.
Exposure Control and Personal Protection
Wear laboratory coats, gloves, and safety glasses. Use self-contained breathing apparatus in case of fire.
Physical and Chemical Characteristics
The kits are mostly liquid, with some lyophilized components. They are non-flammable and have a pH range of 5.56-7.4, except for the highly acidic Stop Solution.
Stability and Reactivity
The kits are stable under normal conditions with no known hazardous decomposition products.
Toxicology Information
Potential biohazards exist, but no known sensitizing, carcinogenic, mutagenic, or teratogenic effects are reported.
Ecological Information
No known ecological hazards.
Disposal Considerations
Dispose of materials according to regional and national regulations.
Transportation Information
The kits are not restricted for road, sea, or air transport.
Regulatory Information
Classified according to EEC Directive 88/379. Specific risks and cautions are indicated for concentrated Sulfuric Acid.
Other Information
For research or in vitro diagnostic use only. Not for use on humans or animals. The information is provided without warranty, and users must comply with applicable laws and guidelines.

The kit components that are made with human serum are tested by a United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) licensed method and found to be non-reactive for HIV-1, HIV-2, Hepatitis B surface antigen and HCV. Because no test method can offer absolute assurance that these agents are absent, reagents should be handled at the Biosafety Level 2, as recommended for any potentially infectious human blood product, in the United States Center for Disease Control (USCDC) and National Institute of Health (USNIH) manual "Biosafety in Microbiological Laboratories", 1988. All bovine serum products used are derived from animals of US origin, processed in USDA licensed facilities Chemical Hazard: Wash Buffer, Serum Diluent and Calibrators in kits are formulated with Sodium Azide as a preservative. Concentrated Sodium Azide may react with copper and lead plumbing to form explosive metal azides. It may also react with acids to form explosive hydrazoic acid. If drain disposed, flush with large amounts of water to prevent azide build-up. Components also contain bromo-nitro-dioxane which is harmful by Page 1 of 4 Revision Date: 06Apr11 (Rev.2) F:\Approved Documents\Quality Docs\MSDS\Celiac Disease Kits.doc
