Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information - workers

Lysozyme may cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if inhaled; according to CLP regulation (EC1272/2008) Lysozyme is classified as Resp. Sens. 1, H334.

Therefore, Lysozyme is associated to an high hazard profile (i.e., category 1 and 2 carcinogens, potent category 3 carcinogens, category 1, 2 and 3 mutagens, very (acutely) toxic substances, strong corrosives, extreme/strong skin sensitizers and respiratory sensitizers) and a very high level of containment, automatic dosing/feeding to the process, and appropriate PPE are recommended in occupational settings in order to avoid exposure.

Additional information - General Population

Lysozyme may cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if inhaled; according to CLP regulation (EC1272/2008) Lysozyme is classified as Resp. Sens. 1, H334.

Therefore, Lysozyme is associated to a high hazard profile and exposure have to be avoided.
