V. HANDLING PROTOCOL

Naphthalene is irritating to the eyes and skin, and is toxic if in- gested. Acute overexposure may cause dermatitis, headache, and nausea. Chronic overexposure causes renal shutdown and eye cataracts. This material is also sus- pected of causing neoplasms in rats. tected when working with naphthalene. Coveralls, gloves, eye and foot protection are necessary. Respiratory protection should be provided in areas where naphtha- lene dust may form. Dust type cannister or air-supplied masks are suitable. AN work should be conducted in well-ventilated areas. Although we did not encounter this problem, it is very possible to create a dust when handling solid naphthalene. Care should be taken to prevent this since high concentrations of naphthalene dust are explosive in air.

Thus, all personnel should be fully pro-

When the uniform mixture began to separate, it could be rehomogenized by treatment with the vortex mixer for 1 min.

3 . CONCLUSIONS

Naphthalene can be suspended in 0 . 5 % aqueous methyl cellulose, and the suspension remains visually homogeneous for a maximum of 1 min, if the dry chemical is first ground in a mortar and the naphthalene/methyl cel- lulose mixture is sonicated for 30 min. When the mixture separates, it can * be rehomogenized by treatment with the vortex mixer for 1 min.

B. CHRONIC LEVEL STUDIES - SFVEN-DAY, ROOM TEIQERATURE STABILITY IN CORN OIL AT A 4% DOSE LEVEL

1. SAMPLE PREPARATION AND STORAGE

Naphthalene ( 2 . 1 3 9 + 0.001 g) was placed in a 50-ml volumetric flask and diluted to the volume mark with corn oil (44 .357 - + 0.001 g). The chemical dissolved upon sonicating for 5 min to give a solution of 46 .00 - + 0 . 0 2 mg/g or 42 .78 - + 0 . 0 2 mg/d ( 4 . 2 9 % w/v or 4 . 6 0 % w/w).

As soon as the solution had been.prepared, eight accurately weighed 1 . 6 0 g aliquots were removed and sealed in separate 60-ml septum vials (Microsep F-138 gas chromatography septa with TeflonB film facing, from Canton Biomedical Products, Inc.; aluminum crimp seals from Wheaton Scientific Company, Inc.) . zero-time, samples and for storage at 1, 5 and 7 days, respectively.

Extracting solvent containing an internal reference standard was prepared by weighing 4 . 5 7 1 - + 0.0001 g of 1,2-bis(2-methoxyetho?cy)ethane,

To extract each sample aliquot, the septum vial was opened, 50 m l of the extracting solvent was added by volumetric pipette, and the vial im- mediately resealed. The corn oil/methanol-mixture was manually shaken for . 15 sec, sonicated 30 sec, and 10 m l of the resulting suspension was decanted into a 12-ml centrifuge tube and centrifuged for 5 min. A portion of the clear, methanolic supernatant solution ( 5 m l ) was then transferred to an 8 .5 ml septum vial for subsequent analysis by the gas chromatographic system outlined below:

3. QUALITY COhTROL PROTOCOLS

Analyses were performed in duplicate using 1,2-bis(2-methoxyethoxy)- ethane as an internal reference standard. Recovery studies were performed in duplicate at the same concentration level as the test samples. Gas chromato- graphic linearity was determined with standard solutions in methanol at 1.84, 1.38 and 0.72 mg/ml concentrations f o r the naphthalene and 5.06, 3.79, and 2 . 5 3 mg/ml for the internal reference. The least squares plot correlation coefficients were > 0.999 for both the test chemical and the internal refer- ence (effectively 1.0, linear). -

5 . CONCLUSION

Naphthalene is stable when dissolved in corn oil at a dose level of 4% and stored at room temperature for 7 days.

111. ANALYSIS PROTOCOL FOR USE BY BIOASSAYERS

A. BULK CHEMICAL

1. GENERAL PROTOCOL

The objective is to determine whether a given compound as received and stored is, and remains, identical to that received a n d analyzed by MRI.

The most efficient method for determining stability is to maintain a stable standard to be used for comparison with the stored bulk chemical. Therefore, when you receive the bulk shipment, remove standard samples of 1 g for solids or 2 m l for liquids for each testing tine.

Place each sample in a glass vial with a Teflon-lined top tightly closed and, if possible, sealed. Place samples in a freezer at -2OOC for- storage prior to analysis.

Remove a single stand2rd vial from the freezer approximately 4 hr prior to analysis. Perform analyses in tandem so that test sample results can be compared to the standard. Also compare the results obtained i n the MRI analytical reports. and your analyses. However, your standard and sample analyses should be identical to each other and identical to IRI data within expected variation limits.

Slight differences may occur between the MRI report

Vapor-phase chromatography (this report, Section I-B-1-d-System 2 ; 10% Carbowax 20 MTPA).

3. IDENTITY

Infrared spectroscopy (this report, Section I-B-2-b-(1)).

B. CHEMICAL/VEHICLE

Follow the analysis and extraction procedures described above in Sections 11-B-2 and 11-B-3 for the chronic level 7-day stability study.

IV. STORAGE CONDITIONS

Naphthalene should be stored in sealed containers at room tem- perature away from oxidizing materials and sources of ignition. The bulk material is stable for 2 weeks at temperatures of up to 60°C, indicating a stability of at least 24 weeks at room temperature (25OC). Naphthalene was also found to be stable for 7 days at 25OC when dissolved in corn oil at a dose level of 4%. Naphthalene dust forms an explosive mixture in air at high concentrations; therefore, care should be exercised when preparing to open storage vessels containing naphthalene.

*

V. HANDLING PROTOCOL

Naphthalene is irritating to the eyes and skin, and is toxic if ingested. Acute overexposure may cause dermatitis, headache, and nausea. Chronic overexposure causes renal shutdown and eye cataracts. This mate- rial is also suspected of causing neoplasms in rats. Thus, all personnel should be fully protected when working with naphthalene. Coveralls, gloves, eye and foot protection are necessary. provided in areas where naphthalene dust may form. air-supplied masks are suitable. ventilated areas. Although we did not encounter this problem, it is very possible to create a dust when handling solid naphthalene. be taken to prevent this since high concentrations of naphthalene dust are explosive in air.

Respiratory protection should be Dust type cannister or

AN work should be conducted in well-

Care should
