Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Treatment includes gastrointestinal decontamination with activated charcoal, supportive care, and monitoring of electrolytes and glucose. Pulmonary edema may be delayed up to 72 hours. Patients ingesting more than 5 mg/kg body weight should be admitted for observation.
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
If material on fire or involved in fire: Extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire (Material itself does not burn or burns with difficulty). Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Keep run-off water out of sewers and water sources. Naphthylthiourea
Specific hazards arising from the chemical

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic gases and toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides and carbon monoxide. Reacts with strong oxidants such as silver nitrate. This generates fire and explosion hazard.
Chemical stability
Stable on exposure to air and to sunlight.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
To fight fire use:/Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide.ANTU is incompatible with the following: Strong oxidizers, silver nitrate (NIOSH, 2016).
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Incompatibilities: Contact with strong oxidizers may cause fires and explosions.
Hazardous decomposition products
Hazardous decomposition products include: sulfur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, and carbon monoxide.

SECTION 12: Ecological information
Toxicity
- Toxicity to fish: no data available
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
Persistence and degradability
no data available
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 5.7 was calculated in fish for alpha-naphthylthiourea(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.65(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of alpha-naphthylthiourea can be estimated to be 3600(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that alpha-naphthylthiourea is expected to have slight mobility in soil. The pKa of alpha-naphthylthiourea is estimated as 9.47(3), indicating that this compound will exist partially in anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4).
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
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.
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.
