Divinyl Sulfone is Allowed in Permissible Levels

Divinyl Sulfone

Acute and chronic mammalian toxicity: Sulfur mustard is a vesicant or blistering agent that possesses strong alkylating and consequently demonstrates systemic toxicity in addition to it's effects on skin, eyes and respiratory tract (2). It's also considered a known human carcinogen (59-61). Some HD degradation products retain considerable toxicity including, in some cases, vesicant action. Examples include mustard and hemimustard-TDG aggragates, mustard sulfone and divinyl sulfone. In general compounds that have a 2-chloroethylsulfide moiety are alkylating agents that have vesicant action.

Find more information on DVS by googling MSDS Divinyl Sulfone and read the safety sheet.

How is this TOXIC blistering agent "okay" to inject into the human body?
