[edit] Does this have a high or a low toxicity?
From the introduction:
"Benzyl alcohol is also a useful solvent due to its polarity, low toxicity, and low vapor pressure."
From "Health & safety":
"Benzyl alcohol is also known for its toxic effects including respiratory failure, vasodilation, hypotension, convulsions, and paralysis."
Does this need clarified (to be infants/neonates)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.58.65.75 (talk) 23:25, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
