The text describes a container of refrigerated liquid oxygen with warnings and instructions for handling and usage. The container must be kept upright at all times and connections should not be forced. Oxygen is both cold and pressurized which can accelerate combustion and cause frostbite. Smoking is strictly prohibited as it can result in a fire. The container must only be used with equipment designed for oxygen service and adequate ventilation must be provided. The Material Safety Data Sheet should be followed and untrained personnel should not be allowed to access the container. Emergency personnel can use it for oxygen deficiency and resuscitation but its use on patients who have stopped breathing is not recommended unless with resuscitative equipment. Use on high concentrations of oxygen over a long duration could be harmful. The label also includes the company name and contact information, CAS number and complies with 21 CFR 207.3 (10).*
