Reasonable contact with Flourish Excel (eyes, mucous membranes excluded)shouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't hold my nose over the Excel and inhale deeply, but it is relatively safe. I believe Brian is referring to contact with Flourish Excel as being non problematic.

I have also worked with glutaraldehyde. Any contact with glutaraldehyde would be a problem. It is a nasty chemical that should be neither inhaled or come in contact with skin.

Contact for humans isn't a problem so I would assume the plants and animals should be fine if you don't overdo it.
Remember, if you are dosing Excel to combat algae, you are over doing it! You have to over do it for the Excel to work. Watch your fish!
