4.First-aid measures

4.1 Description of necessary first-aid measures

General advice

Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

If inhaled

If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.

In case of skin contact

Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.

In case of eye contact

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.

If swallowed

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.

4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

The compound is toxic by oral exposure. (EPA, 1998)

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

VETERINARY: Injured capillaries cannot be mended, but other measures may save the animal. Restraint & handling should be minimized. A sedative or tranquilizer may be of assistance in restraint, calming ... and reducing locomotion, thus decr tissue oxygen demand. Oxygen may be given, but manual pumping of chest is not advisable. Dyspnea may be relieved by thoracentesis. Clotting factors should be provided in form of blood transfusion (20 mL/kg, 1/2 injected quickly). Warfarin should be antagonized with slow iv injection of vitamin K1. Dogs and cats are given 5 mg/kg. This dose is repeated for 2 more days, using im route. Larger animals are given 0.5 to 1 mg/kg, and oral vitamin K1 should be admin daily for 4-6 days. The vitamin will not evoke a sudden dramatic cure; but bleeding tendency will gradually abate as clotting factors begin to be synthesized ... Menadione (vitamin K3) is not as effective as vitamin K1 ... Residual defects such as lameness or CNS signs from localized hemorrhages may disappear with gradual resorption of extravasated blood. Liver damage may be compensated by regeneration of hepatic cells. /Warfarin/

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.

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: Using OECD 301B (CO2 evolution method), bromadiolone showed 0% degradation after the 28-day incubation period which classified the compound as not readily biodegradable(1). Bromadiolone was also found to be not readily biodegradable using OECD 301D (closed bottle method) where maximum degradation reached only 31%(1). Using OECD 302D (CO2 production measured as inorganic carbon in mixed micro-organism populations), bromadiolone degradation reached a maximum of only 2% which classified the compound as not inherently biodegradable(1).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

Using bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) and the OECD 305E method, bromadiolone was found to have a maximum BCF of 460 for whole fish(1). In a second study using channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), the whole fish BCF was 74 after 14 days(1). In both of these studies the BCF reliability was considered low due, in part, to high mortality in the exposed group of fish(1). A fish bioconcentration study with rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was performed, but it failed due to high mortalities of the fish(1). An estimated BCF range of 125 to >513 was calculated in fish for bromadiolone(SRC), using measured log Kow values of >5.0 at pH 4-5 and 4.07 at pH 7(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), the estimated BCF values and whole fish BCF value in Bluegill sunfish suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

In one laboratory soil adsorption study, bromadiolone was found to have Koc values ranging from 1563-1709 (mean of 1632)(1). In another sorption study using five different soil types, bromadiolone had Koc values ranging from 3530-41600 with three of the five values above 4000(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these Koc values suggest that bromadiolone adsorption is expected to range from low mobility in soil to being immobile in soil. Results of laboratory soil column leaching and aged leaching studies indicate that bromadiolone and any potential degradation products, even if released indirectly to soil in small quantities, are not likely to move through the soil profile(1).

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.
