Fire: Combustible under specific conditions. Liquid formulations containing organic solventsmay be flammable. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.

Atrazine can affect when breathed in and by passing through the skin. It should be handled as a carcinogen-with extreme caution. Contact may irritate the eyes and skin. Atrazine may cause a skin allergy. If allergy develops, very low future exposures can cause itching and a skin rash. Exposure to very high levels may affect the nervous system.


Skin : Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Eyes : First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact

lenses if easily possible), and then take to a doctor. Inhalation : Refer for medical attention. Ingestion : Rinse mouth. Refer for medical attention. Note to physician : There is no specific antidote for Atrazine. If this product is

Ingested, induce emesis or lavage stomach. The use of an Aqueous slurry of activated may be considered. Antidote : Not applicable

Appearance : Light grey to white powder Melting Point : 173-175 degrees C. Density : 1.187 (20ºC) Water solubility : Very slightly soluble Other solubility : Readily soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide (183 g/litre), moderately Soluble in methanol (18 g/litre), diethyl ether (12 g/litre),

Chloroform (52 g/litre), and ethyl acetate (28 g/litre) PH value : 6-9 Flash point : >200ºF Ignition temperature : Not applicable Vapor Pressure : 0.04 mPa @ 20 ºC Partition Coefficient : 2.3404 Adsorption Coefficient: 100


Stability : Stable Conditions to Avoid : High or excessive temperatures Incompatibility : Acids or alkalies Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide, acetonitrile Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur


Contact with the skin : Cause a skin allergy Contact with the eyes : Irritate Acute Toxicity:- Oral LD50 (Rat) : 1075-1886 mg/kg Dermal LD50 (Rabbit) : >5000 mg/kg Chronic Toxicity: Some 40% of rats receiving oral doses of 20 mg/kg/day for 6 months died with signs of respiratory distress and paralysis of the limbs. Structural and chemical changes in the brain, heart, liver, lungs, kidney, ovaries, and endocrine organs were observed. Rats fed 5 or 25 mg/kg/day of atrazine for 6 months exhibited growth retardation. In a 2-year study with dogs, 7.5 mg/kg/day caused decreased food intake and increased heart and liver weights. At 75 mg/kg/day, there were decreases in food intake and body weight gain, increased adrenal weight, lowered blood cell counts, and occasional tremors or stiffness in the rear limbs. Reproductive effects: Dietary doses of atrazine given to rats on days 3,6 and 9 of gestation up to about 50 mg/kg/day caused no adverse reproductive effects.



Teratogenic effects: Atrazine does not appear to be Teratogenic. In mice, atrazine did not cause abnormalities in fetuses whose dams were given doses of 46.4 mg/kg/day during days 6 through 14 of gestation. Mutagenic effects: The weight of evidence from more than 50 studies indicates that atrazine is not mutagenic. Carcinogenic effects: Atrazine did not cause tumors when mice were given oral doses of 21.5 mg/kg/day from age 1 to 4 weeks, followed by dietary doses of 82 mg/kg for an additional 17 months. However, mammary tumors were observed in rats after lifetime administration of high doses of atrazine. Thus, available data regarding atrazine’s carcinogenic potential are inconclusive. Organ toxicity: Lethal doses of atrazine in test animals have caused congestion and/or hemorrhaging to the lungs, kidneys, liver, spleen, brain, and heart. Long-term consumption of high levels of atrazine has caused tremors, changes or organ weights, and damage to the liver heart.


Effects on birds: Atrazine is practically nontoxic to birds. The LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg in mallard ducks. At dietary doses of 5000 ppm, no effect was observed in bobwhite quail and ring-necked pheasants.

Effect of aquatic organisms: Atrazine is slightly toxic to fish and other aquatic life. Atrazine has a low level of bioaccumulation in fish. In whitefish, atrazine accumulates in the brain, gall bladder, liver, and gut.

Effect on other organisms: Atrazine is non-toxic to bees.

12. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION EYE EFFECTS: Practically non-irritating (rabbit)

SKIN EFFECTS: Non-irritating (rabbit)

DERMAL LD50: > 2,000 mg/kg (rabbit)

ORAL LD50: 53.4 mg/kg (rat)

INHALATION LC50: 0.8 mg/l (4 h) (rat)

SENSITIZATION: This product produces skin sensitization (allergic reaction) in laboratory animals, and may produce similar effecs in humans.

ACUTE EFFECTS FROM OVEREXPOSURE: Bifenthrin is moderately toxic if swallowed and has low dermal and inhalation toxicity. It is non-irritating to the skin and practically non-irritating to the eyes. Large doses of bifenthrin ingested by laboratory animals produced signs of toxicity including convulsions, tremors and bloody nasal discharge. Bifenthrin does not cause acute delayed neurotoxicity. Experience to date indicates that contact with bifenthrin may occasionally produce skin sensations such as rashes, numbing, burning or tingling. These sensations are reversible and usually subside within 12 hours.

CHRONIC EFFECTS FROM OVEREXPOSURE: In studies with laboratory animals, bifenthrin did not cause reproductive toxicity or teratogenicity. Tremors were associated with repeated exposure of laboratory animals to bifenthrin. In lifetime feeding studies conducted with rodents, a slight increase in the incidence of urinary bladder tumors at the highest dose in male mice was considered to be an equivocal response, not evidence of a clear compound-related effect. The overall absence of genotoxicity has been demonstrated in mutagenicity tests with bifenthrin.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION ENVIRONMENTAL DATA: Bifenthrin has moderate stability in the soil under aerobic conditions (half-life range from 65 - 125 days depending on soil type) and is stable at a wide range of pH values. Bifenthrin has a high Log Pow (>6.0), a high affinity for organic matter, and is not mobile in soil. Therefore, there is little potential for movement into ground water. There is the potential for bifenthrin to bioconcentrate (BCF = 11,750).

ECOTOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION: Bifenthrin is highly toxic to fish and aquatic arthropods and LC50 values range from 0.0038 to 17.8 µg/L. In general, the aquatic arthropods are the most sensitive species. Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the aquatic environment.

Bifenthrin had no effect on mollusks at its limit of water solubility. Bifenthrin is only slightly toxic to both

waterfowl and upland game birds (LD50 values range from 1,800 mg/kg to >2,150 mg/kg).

13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS DISPOSAL METHOD: Open dumping or burning of this material or its packaging is prohibited. If spilled material cannot be disposed of by use according to label instructions, an acceptable method of

disposal is to incinerate in accordance with local, state and national environmental laws, rules, standards

and regulations. However, because acceptable methods of disposal may vary by location and regulatory

Mild skin irritant (guinea pigs). NOEL for male rats 0.90, female rats 1.12 mg/kg daily. ADI (JMPR) 0.01 mg/kg. Chronic toxicity: In a two-year study in dogs buprofezin was administered orally in gelatin capsules at doses of 0, 2, 20 or 200 mg/kg bw/day. The NOAEL was 2 mg/kg bw/day. Increased liver weight (associated with enlargement of centrilobular hepatocytes and bile duct hyperplasia) was seen at higher doses. Reproductive effects: In reproductive effects study, the high-dose animals exhibited lower body weight gain compared to the controls; this was most pronounced in F1 and F2 males. Depressed weight gain was also seen at lower doses, especially in F1 animals the first weeks after weaning. Teratogenic effects: Teratogenic studies in rats at doses of buprofezin of 0, 50, 200 or 800 mg/kg bw/day and in rabbits at 0, 10, 50 or 250 mg/kg bw/day gave no indication of teratogenic potential. The NOAEL for maternal toxicity in both species was 50 mg/kg bw/day. Mutagenic effects: Buprofezin did not have mutagenic properties when tested in a number of in vitro and in vivo systems, which included assessment of gene mutations, DNA damage, and clastogenic effects. Carcinogenic effects: increased absolute and relative liver weight and an increased incidence of hepatocellular swelling (centrilobular and diffuse) and hepatocellular hyperplasia were seen in both sexes. It is concluded that the data does not indicate a carcinogenic potential. The noael is 20 ppm (male) equal to 1.82 mg buprofezin/kg bw/day.

1. CHEMICAL PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION Product Name: Chlorpyrifos Technical EPA Registration No: 33658-17 Active Ingredient: Chlorpyrifos Gharda Chemicals Limited Emergency Response Telephone Numbers 660 Newtown-Yardley Rd. For Spills Call: CHEMTREC: 1-(800)-424-9300 Newtown, PA 18940 For Medical Call : 1-(866)-359-5660 2. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS INGREDIENTS: (% w/w) PEL/TLV Chlorpyrifos (CAS Reg. No. 2921-88-2) 98.0 0.2 mg/m3 (skin) O,O-diethyl O-(3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridyl) phosphorothioate Other Ingredients 2.0 N/A Chemical Class: Organophosphate Insecticide 3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:

• EPA Signal Word: Warning • Cholinesterase inhibitor. • If ingested, may cause serious injury or death. • Harmful if absorbed through skin or inhaled • Prolonged exposure may cause skin irritation. Repeated exposure may cause skin

burns. • Extremely toxic to fish, aquatic organisms, and bees. • Burning can produce toxic, irritating gases.

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: Excessive exposure may produce organophosphate type cholinesterase inhibition. Signs and symptoms of excessive exposure may be headache, dizziness, incoordination, muscle twitching, tremors, nausea, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, sweating, pinpoint pupils, blurred vision, salivation, tearing, tightness in chest, excessive urination, and convulsions. Observations in animals include adrenal effects at high doses.


4. FIRST AID MEASURES IF SWALLOWED: Call poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by the poison control center or doctor. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration, preferably by mouth-to-mouth, if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. IF ON SKIN OR CLOTHING: Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. IF IN EYES: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advise. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Chlorpyrifos is a cholinesterase inhibitor. Initial treatment measures include removal of secretions, maintenance of a patent airway and, if necessary, artificial respiration. When cyanosis is relieved, atropine may be administered in large therapeutic doses, repeated as necessary to the point of tolerance. If symptoms warrant further treatment, protopam chloride (pralidoxime chloride, 2-PAM chloride) has shown utility as adjunctive therapy. Never use morphine. Continued absorption of the poison may occur, resulting in a fatal relapse after initial improvement in condition. Close supervision of the patient is indicated for at least 48 to 72 hours. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point: 189ºC (372ºF) Method Used: Pensky-Martens Flash Point Tester (Closed Cup) Flammability Limits: LFL: 189ºC (372ºF) UFL: 192ºC (378ºF) Extinguishing Media: Foam, CO2, Dry Chemical Fire & Explosion Precautions: Foam fire-extinguishing system is preferred because uncontrolled water can spread possible contamination. Toxic irritating gases can be formed. Rapid Decomposition above 320ºF to 392ºF (160ºC to 200ºC) can occur. Violent rupture of containers due to over pressurization may occur. Fire-Fighting Equipment: Use positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective equipment.


6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES IN CASE OF SPILLS OR LEAKS: Isolate the spill. Hold chlorpyrifos technical package, other cargo and vehicles involved. For emergency spill assistance call CHEMTREC (24-hour service): 1-800-424-9300. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Store and handle in accordance with all current regulations and standards. Subject to storage and handling regulations; Keep separated from incompatible substances. Keep in cool place away from heat. Do not store above 30° C (86° F). 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION EXPOSURE GUIDELINE(S): ACGIH TLV and OSHA PEL are 0.2 mg/m3 for chlorpyrifos, skin. PEL is in accord with those recommended by OSHA, as in the 1989 revision of PELs. A 'skin' notation following the exposure guideline refers to the potential for dermal absorption of the material. It is intended to alert the reader that inhalation may not be the only route of exposure and that measures to minimize dermal exposures should be considered. VENTILATION: Provide general and/or local exhaust ventilation to control airborne levels below the exposure guideline. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Atmospheric levels should be maintained below the exposure guideline. For most conditions, no respiratory protection should be needed; however, if handling at elevated temperatures without sufficient ventilation, use an approved air-purifying respirator. EYE/FACE PROTECTION: Use safety glasses. SKIN PROTECTION: Wear rubber gloves and protective clothing when handling; clean body-covering clothing should be sufficient for most conditions. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING AND STORAGE: See product label. This product may be fatal if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. Causes eye irritation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating or smoking. Avoid breathing dust.

Thermal Decomposition: Decomposes at 320ºF (160ºC). 10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY REACTIVITY: Stability: (CONDITIONS TO AVOID) Chlorpyrifos undergoes exothermic decomposition at approximately 266ºF (130ºC) which can lead to higher temperatures and violent decomposition if generated heat is not removed. Incompatibility: (SPECIFIC MATERIALS TO AVOID) Alkaline materials. Consult manufacturer for specific cases. Hazardous Decomposition: Under fire conditions, hydrogen chloride, ethyl sulfide, Diethyl sulfide and nitrogen oxides can be formed. Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur


11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION TOXICITY DATA: Acute oral toxicity (LD 50)

Rat 135-163 mg/kg b. wt. Rabbits 1000-2000 mg/Kg Guinea Pig: 504-mg/kg b. wt.

Acute dermal toxicity Rabbits 2000 mg/kg b. wt. Rat: > 2000 mg/kg b. wt

Acute inhalation toxicity (LC 50) Rats for 4 hrs: > 0.2 mg/liter Rats for 4-6 hrs. 0.2 mg/liter

EYE: May cause slight eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely. SKIN CONTACT: Prolonged exposure may cause skin irritation. Repeated exposure may cause skin burns. SKIN ABSORPTION: A single prolonged exposure may result in the material being absorbed in harmful amounts. INGESTION: Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be moderate. Small amounts that might be swallowed incidental to normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury. Swallowing larger amounts may cause serious injury, even death. Observations in animals include diarrhea and tremors due to cholinesterase depression. INHALATION: At room temperature, exposures to vapors are unlikely due to the low vapor pressure of chlorpyrifos. Higher temperatures may generate vapor levels sufficient to cause adverse effects. In tests to determine the acute LC50, no deaths occurred in rats exposed for 4 hours to vapors generated by passing air through heated, molten chlorpyrifos; the nominal concentration was 200 mg/m3. CARCINOGENICITY: Did not cause cancer in long-term animal studies. TERATOGENICITY: Birth defects are unlikely. Exposures having no effect on the mother should have no effect on the fetus. Did not cause birth defects in animals. Other effects were seen in the fetus only at doses which caused toxic effects to the mother. REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS: Chlorpyrifos did not interfere with fertility in reproduction studies in laboratory animals. Some evidence of toxicity to the offspring occurred, but only at a dose high enough to produce significant toxicity to the parent animals. MUTAGENICITY: Based on a majority of negative data and some equivocal or marginally positive results, chlorpyrifos is considered to have minimal mutagenic potential.
