Extensive compilation of material safety information on methanol (Methyl alcohol) including in situ amelioration recommendations, and an extensive review of freshwater, saltwater, and animal toxicity testing. Interesting information: Binary reactants include strong oxidizers. Corrosive to lead and aluminum. No direct evidence of carcinogenicity, not mutagenic (from bioassay data). Because it is slowly eliminated, it should be considered as a cumulative poison. -- AATA
