TANNIC ACID

Tannic acid is used as a mordant in dyeing, as a coagulant in rubber manufacture, and as a boiler feedwater additive; used in manufacturing gallic acid, pyrogallol, and ink; used for sizing paper and silk and printing fabrics; used in tanning and photography; used to treat wastewater; used to clarify beer and wine (Budavari, 1996; HSDB , 2000).
Suppositories have been used in the treatment of hemorrhoids (JEF Reynolds , 2000). Tannic acid was formerly used locally for sore throat and stomatitis and to harden nipples during nursing (Osol & Hoover, 1975). It was also formerly used in the treatment of extensive burns, orally as a antidiarrheal agent, and as an additive to barium sulfate enemas to improved radiological imaging of the colon (JEF Reynolds , 2000; HSDB , 2000).
It has historically been used internally as an astringent, hemostatic, and heavy metal antidote in veterinary medicine (Budavari, 1996).

SOURCES

Tannic acid is available medicinally as 5% tannic acid in a jelly base (Amertan - Lilly). Also known as Tannin, gallotannin and gallotannic acid, it is included in Universal Antidote, a preparation which should NOT be used. Acorns & beech nuts containing tannic acid may be dangerous when eaten in large quantities.

Martinek & Wolman (1955) investigated the average amount of tannins in coffee, tea and cocoa. A summary of their data is below.

Product	Average % tannins
Regular coffee	1.0-1.1
Instant coffee	4.1-4.3
Regular decaffeinated coffee	1.2
Instant decaffeinated coffee	3.8-6.7
Bulk tea	10.5-11.8
Tea bags	9.1-13.1
Instant tea	14.7
Bulk cocoa	2.5-4

ACORNS

Contain various polyhydroxyphenolic compounds known as tannins. The primary chemicals involved are tannic acid, gallic acid, and pyrogallol (Sandusky et al, 1977; Dollahite et al, 1962).
Concentration of total phenolics found in Arkansas plants of the following species (Basden & Dalvi, 1987):
% Range
Quercus alba 1.09 0.41 to 2.54
Quercus rubera 4.10 3.72 to 4.47
Quercus velutina 4.51 3.29 to 6.13

-CLINICAL EFFECTS

GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS

Acute ingestion of tannic acid may result in nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and hepatic necrosis if large amounts are absorbed. The minimal toxic or lethal dose is not well established in the literature. Severity of intoxication should be based on clinical findings.

-FIRST AID

FIRST AID AND PREHOSPITAL TREATMENT

ACTIVATED CHARCOAL

PREHOSPITAL ACTIVATED CHARCOAL ADMINISTRATION

Consider prehospital administration of activated charcoal as an aqueous slurry in patients with a potentially toxic ingestion who are awake and able to protect their airway. Activated charcoal is most effective when administered within one hour of ingestion. Administration in the prehospital setting has the potential to significantly decrease the time from toxin ingestion to activated charcoal administration, although it has not been shown to affect outcome (Alaspaa et al, 2005; Thakore & Murphy, 2002; Spiller & Rogers, 2002).

In patients who are at risk for the abrupt onset of seizures or mental status depression, activated charcoal should not be administered in the prehospital setting, due to the risk of aspiration in the event of spontaneous emesis.
The addition of flavoring agents (cola drinks, chocolate milk, cherry syrup) to activated charcoal improves the palatability for children and may facilitate successful administration (Guenther Skokan et al, 2001; Dagnone et al, 2002).

CHARCOAL DOSE

Use a minimum of 240 milliliters of water per 30 grams charcoal (FDA, 1985). Optimum dose not established; usual dose is 25 to 100 grams in adults and adolescents; 25 to 50 grams in children aged 1 to 12 years (or 0.5 to 1 gram/kilogram body weight) ; and 0.5 to 1 gram/kilogram in infants up to 1 year old (Chyka et al, 2005).

Routine use of a cathartic with activated charcoal is NOT recommended as there is no evidence that cathartics reduce drug absorption and cathartics are known to cause adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, electrolyte imbalances and occasionally hypotension (None Listed, 2004).

ADVERSE EFFECTS/CONTRAINDICATIONS

Complications: emesis, aspiration (Chyka et al, 2005). Aspiration may be complicated by acute respiratory failure, ARDS, bronchiolitis obliterans or chronic lung disease (Golej et al, 2001; Graff et al, 2002; Pollack et al, 1981; Harris & Filandrinos, 1993; Elliot et al, 1989; Rau et al, 1988; Golej et al, 2001; Graff et al, 2002). Refer to the ACTIVATED CHARCOAL/TREATMENT management for further information.
Contraindications: unprotected airway (increases risk/severity of aspiration) , nonfunctioning gastrointestinal tract, uncontrolled vomiting, and ingestion of most hydrocarbons (Chyka et al, 2005).

-RANGE OF TOXICITY

MINIMUM LETHAL EXPOSURE

ROUTE OF EXPOSURE

SUMMARY - Tannic acid was formerly used in the treatment of large burns and added to barium sulfate enemas (to improve radiological imaging) (JEF Reynolds , 2000).
Tannic acid has also been included in barium enemas in concentrations of 0.25 to 3 percent; however, there have been human deaths (5 children, 3 adults) reported from its therapeutic use in barium enemas. Death was due to hepatic necrosis (Arena, 1974).
This procedure (tannic acid in barium enema) is NOT recommended and absolutely should not be used in children or adults with hepatic disease.

ACUTE

ESTIMATED ACUTE LETHAL DOSE - For humans is 0.5 to 5 grams/kilogram (Arena & Drew, 1986).

ANIMAL DATA

LDLo (ORAL) RAT - 200 mg/kg (Lewis, 1996)
LDLo (Subcutaneous) RAT - 200 mg/kg (RTECS, 2000)
LDLo (PARENTERAL) RAT - 1400 mg/kg (RTECS, 2000)
LDLo (ORAL) MOUSE - 2,000 mg/kg (RTECS, 2000)
LDLo (Subcutaneous) MOUSE - 75 mg/kg (RTECS, 2000)
LDLo (IV) MOUSE - 10 mg/kg (RTECS, 2000)
LDLo (IV) GUINEA PIG - 40 mg/kg (RTECS, 2000)

MAXIMUM TOLERATED EXPOSURE

GENERAL/SUMMARY

Humans may ingest up to 1 gram/day in foods and drinks (Gosselin et al, 1984).
Very little is known about the concentration or orally administered amount of tannic acid needed to cause liver cell death (Janower et al, 1965).

ANIMAL DATA

Dogs who were given toxic doses of tannic acid developed liver toxicity with levels of 14.2 milligrams percent tannic acid (Lucke et al, 1963).

GENERAL INFORMATION

This section provides a compilation of chemical resistance information and test data for specific protective clothing products. Chemical resistance information includes both degradation resistance ratings and permeation resistance data. This information is designed to assist in the selection of appropriate protective clothing. Only data on specific products and manufacturers are included. Generic information or recommendations are not provided since significant differences can exist in the chemical resistance for apparent similar product types.
Specific product information is organized by general product type (gloves, garments, and footwear), material type, and manufacturer. The category 'garments' may include totally encapsulating suits, splash suits, as well as other items (e.g., coveralls, jackets, and aprons). Specific manufacturers should be contacted to determine the features of available styles/models.
In addition to chemical resistance information, there are many critical variables in the selection of protective clothing which cannot be represented in this summary of the literature. Some factors to be considered in choosing protective clothing include, but are not limited to: overall clothing integrity, physical hazard resistance, durability, human factors, ease of decontamination, and cost. Overall clothing integrity refers to a specific design's ability to offer consistent protection for all clothing-covered areas of the body. Physical hazards include resisting the effects of abrasion, cuts, tears, and punctures. Human factors entail effects on wearer mobility, visibility, and hearing for garments; dexterity, tactility, and grip for gloves; ankle support and weight for footwear; and, any effect of the clothing on the function of the wearer. There are several variations in the design for gloves, garments, and footwear that affect these factors. Protective clothing must properly be sized and correctly fit the wearer to ensure its proper use and function.
As required in the U.S.A., protective clothing should be selected based on a risk assessment of the workplace. This risk assessment must account for the identification of existing as well as potential hazards and involve the recommendation of protective clothing appropriate for the identified hazards. Therefore, the recommendations in this section should not be used as the sole basis for decisions on choice of protective clothing, but rather should be used as a tool by qualified occupational health and safety professionals or other technically qualified persons in conjunction with a review of all mitigating factors. Consult the OSHA PPE Standard (29 CFR 1910.132 - 1910.138) for regulations and additional guidance regarding the selection and use of protective clothing and equipment. For general information on protective clothing selection, refer to the "PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT - OSHA PUB 3077" document.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SELECTION

Determine the type of protective clothing item needed based on a risk assessment (e.g., gloves, garments, footwear).
For high risk situations, choose clothing that covers all parts of the body that may be exposed. In many cases, multiple clothing items will be required. Low risk situations may permit partial body protective clothing. Select protective clothing products that have reported chemical resistance data. High risk situations involving full body clothing or extended chemical contact often require permeation resistance data to determine the barrier effectiveness of materials used in the construction of clothing. Relatively low risk situations, where only splash or incidental exposure occur, may allow use of protective clothing based on degradation or penetration resistance data. Specifics on the interpretation of chemical resistance data are presented below.
Other factors must be considered in addition to chemical resistance. The selected chemical protective clothing item should offer the optimal combination of protection against identified hazards while allowing maximum function and comfort.

INTERPRETATION OF DEGRADATION RATINGS

Degradation refers to physical changes in a material as the result of chemical exposure. Degradation may become evident in visible changes, such as discoloration, swelling, delamination, deterioration, or disintegration. Degradation effects may also be measured by weight change or other changes in a material's physical properties (e.g., strength, elasticity, hardness).
Degradation resistance ratings are provided by manufacturers to rate the amount of degradation that occurs for a particular protective clothing material when contacted by a chemical. All degradation ratings are qualitative and include ratings, such as "EXCELLENT," "GOOD," "FAIR," "POOR," and "NOT RECOMMENDED." There is no standard test method for the measurement of chemical degradation resistance; therefore, manufacturer ratings may be based on different testing approaches. This makes comparison of degradation ratings between manufacturers unreliable.
The use of degradation resistance ratings alone to recommend protective clothing, particularly for high hazard situations, should be avoided. Degradation resistance testing does not directly assess the barrier quality of protective clothing, since materials can show relatively little degradation but still allow either permeation or penetration by a chemical. Degradation resistance ratings can be used to exclude protective clothing materials from consideration. Protective clothing materials with a "NOT RECOMMENDED" degradation resistance rating should never be used.
For some products, the rating "NO PENETRATION" is provided. This refers to penetration resistance test results that are based on a different procedure (American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard Test Method F 903). Penetration resistance testing involves placing a material sample in a test cell, exposing the exterior side of the material to a chemical, and then observing the interior side of the material for visible signs of liquid penetration. Part of the test is conducted at an elevated pressure. Test results are reported as pass (no penetration) or fail (penetration detected). Unlike degradation testing, penetration testing provides an assessment of protective clothing material barrier performance. Since penetration resistance testing examines only observable amounts of liquid penetration, permeation may still occur. The use of penetration resistance data must be restricted to liquid chemicals, and should be limited to scenarios where there is no reasonable vapor exposure hazard under the conditions of exposure.

INTERPRETATION OF PERMEATION DATA

Permeation is the process of chemical movement through a material on a molecular level. Permeation resistance refers to the ability of a material to retard or prevent chemical movement through it. Permeation may occur without any visible signs of degradation.
Permeation resistance is measured using a test cell which is divided into two halves by a protective clothing specimen. Chemical is placed on the challenge side, while the collection side is periodically monitored for permeating chemical. Permeation data were obtained in accordance with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard Test Method F 739 (Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Permeation by Liquids and Gases), unless stated otherwise. In the case of chemicals that are classified as warfare agents, the data were obtained in accordance with the Military Standard 282 (MIL-STD-282) (Military Standard, Filter Units, Protective Clothing, Gas-Mask Components, and Related Products: Performance Test Methods).
Permeation rate is the amount of chemical that passes through a material for a measured surface area per unit time. In this section, permeation rate is expressed in micrograms per square centimeter per minute (mcg/cm(2)/min). The reported permeation rate is either the steady-state rate or the maximum rate observed during testing. In some cases, very large permeation rates exceed measurement techniques and are reported as ">" (greater than) or "HIGH."
Breakthrough time is the elapsed time, in minutes, from the time the chemical comes in contact with the material exterior surface, to the time that chemical is detected on the interior surface. When no breakthrough is detected, the breakthrough time is report as ">" the testing period. If permeation breakthrough is rapid, results are reported as "<" (less than) the earlier sampling time or as "IMMEDIATELY" (which usually means breakthrough in less than 4 minutes).
The breakthrough time should exceed the expected use period of the selected protective clothing. Additionally, there are several other factors that must be taken into account to provide appropriate protection.
Permeation testing is usually conducted with full strength, undiluted chemical for the duration of the test period. Actual exposures may involve diluted chemical for short or intermittent exposure periods.
Permeation testing is usually conducted at room temperature. Permeation occurs faster at elevated temperatures (short breakthrough times and higher permeation rates) and slower at reduced temperatures (long breakthrough times and lower permeation rates).
Permeation resistance of mixtures cannot usually be determined on the basis of the individual chemicals making up the mixture. Synergistic effects may occur and result in more rapid permeation than accounted for by the individual mixture chemicals.
Permeation rates may be used to calculate potential wearer exposure; however, several assumptions must be made about the extent of exposure and condition of clothing wear. Furthermore, there are few chemicals with dermal exposure limits, making it difficult to determine an acceptable skin exposure level.

FIRE HAZARD

SUMMARY

Editor's Note: An ERG guide with information appropriate to this material does not exist.

FLAMMABILITY CLASSIFICATION

NFPA Flammability Rating for CAS1401-55-4 (NFPA, 2002):

Listed as: Tannic Acid
Flammability Rating: 1

(1) Slightly combustible. Materials that require considerable preheating before ignition can occur. This rating includes most ordinary combustible materials.

FIRE CONTROL/EXTINGUISHING AGENTS

Editor's Note: An ERG guide with information appropriate to this material does not exist.

NFPA Extinguishing Methods for CAS1401-55-4 (NFPA, 2002):

Listed as: Tannic Acid
Extinguishing Method(s): 2

2: "Water or foam may cause frothing" refers to a situation where materials with a flash point above 212 degrees F (100 degrees C) are burning. Potentially violent frothing can be dangerous to fire fighters near the burning liquid. However, when highly viscous liquids are burning, fire fighters can intentionally cause frothing on the liquid surface to prevent further introduction of oxygen.

REACTIVITY HAZARD

Aqueous solutions of tannic acid are unstable, decomposition occurs due to oxidation and mold and bacterial growth. Physical changes include precipitation, darkening in color and a disagreeable odor (Osol & Farrar, 1955).

Will produce insoluble precipitates with albumin, starch, gelatin, most alkaloidal and metallic salts. Tannins produce a bluish-black color or a precipitate with ferric salt (Budavari, 1989).

It is easily hydrolyzed by esterases (Harris et al, 1966).

Combustible when exposed to heat or flame (Sax & Lewis, 1989)

Decomposes at 210 to 215 degrees F mostly into pyrogallol and carbon dioxide (Budavari, 1989)
