== Safety == People can be exposed to MAPP gas or its substitutes in the workplace by inhaling the gas or skin/eye contact with the liquid. The [[Occupational Safety and Health Administration]] (OSHA) has set the [[Permissible exposure limit|legal limit]] for MAPP gas exposure in the workplace as 1000 ppm (1800 mg/m<sup>3</sup>) over an 8-hour workday. The [[National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health]] (NIOSH) has set a [[recommended exposure limit]] (REL) of 1000 ppm (1800 mg/m<sup>3</sup>) over an 8-hour workday and 1250 ppm (2250 mg/m<sup>3</sup>) for short-term exposure. At levels of 3400 ppm, 10% of the lower explosive limit, MAPP gas is [[IDLH|immediately dangerous to life and health]].<ref>{{Cite web|title = CDC β NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards β Methyl acetylene-propadiene mixture|url = https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npg/npgd0393.html|website = www.cdc.gov|access-date = 2015-11-20|archive-date = 2022-01-25|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20220125090908/https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npg/npgd0393.html|url-status = live}}</ref>
