Pepper irritant = OC (Oleoresin Capsicum) as chemical derived from the fruit of plants in the Capsicum genus, including chilis. CS-Cartridges are recognizable by their yellow caps. Animals, especially dogs, show little reaction to CS. Other effects include shortness of breath, anxiety and contraction of the chest. When the irritant cloud hits a person’s face, it causes intense stinging of the eyes and tears, accompanied by convulsive closing of the eyes, depending on the concentration.
