4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

This material is a cholinesterase inhibitor. It can cause severe symptoms and death from respiratory arrest. (EPA, 1998)

4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary

Airway protection. Insure that a clear airway exists. Intubate the patients and aspirate the secretions with a large-bore suction device if necessary. Administer oxygen by mechanically assisted pulmonary ventilation if respiration is depressed. Improve tissue oxygenation as much as possible before administering atropine, so as to minimize the risk of ventricular fibrillation. In severe poisonings, it may be necessary to support pulmonary ventilation mechanically for several days. /Organophosphate pesticides/

8.3 Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE)

Eye/face protection

Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166. Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Skin protection

Wear impervious clothing. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

Respiratory protection

Wear dust mask when handling large quantities.

10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions

Liquid formulations may be flammable, if a flammable solvent is used. The solid may burn but is difficult to ignite.Organothiophosphates, such as FONOFOS, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides.

12.2 Persistence and degradability

Biodegradation is the major process for the loss of dyphonate in soil(1). Biodegradation of dyphonate is faster in dyphonate-treated soil than untreated soil(2,3). The major metabolite of biodegradation of dyphonate in dyphonate-treated soil is carbon dioxide with dyphonate-oxon, methyl phenyl sulfone and other unidentified polar products as minor metabolites(4).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

A BCF of less than 2 for dyphonate was measured using mosquito fish (Gambusia affinis)(1). A BCF of 300 has also been reported but with a 90% depuration within 14 days(2). According to a classification scheme(3), BCF values of <30 are low and from 100 to 1000 are high(SRC). Aquatic organisms readily metabolize this class of compounds(4) and organophosphates can be altered chemically(5) once released into the environment.

12.4 Mobility in soil

Koc values for dyphonate in soil vary widely and range from 68 to 5,128(1-6). According to a classification scheme(7), Koc values of 50 to 150 indicate high mobility and greater than 5,000 indicate immobile in soil. Laboratory and field leaching studies indicate that dyphonate has low to very low mobility in silt loam, sandy loam and organic soil, but is relatively mobile in quartz sand(8-10). The adsorption of dyphonate increases with decreasing temperature and increase in organic content, particularly humic acid and associated cation content of soil(11). A certain fraction of both dyphonate and its oxon metabolite form bound residues in soil and the latter fraction increases with time(12).

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

13.Disposal considerations

13.1 Disposal methods

Product

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.

Contaminated packaging

Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
