Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
This material is extremely toxic; the probable oral lethal dose for humans is 5-50 mg/kg, or between 7 drops and 1 teaspoonful for a 150-lb person. It is a cholinesterase inhibitor. (EPA, 1998)
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
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: When applied at 5 ppm, the half-lives of phosphamidon in loam, loamy sand, and sand was approximately 6, 3, and <3 days, respectively(1,2). At an application rate of 1 ppm, the half-life in loam and silt was three to four weeks(1,2). No data on sterile controls were presented, and the pH of the soils studied were not reported.
Bioaccumulative potential
BCFs of <1 were measured for phosphamidon in zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) using OECD test guideline 305 in a continuous flow-through system operated for 168 hrs with test concns of 995.4 and 198.3 ug/l(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Bioconcentration of phosphamidon is unlikely due to its high water solubility(1), very low lipophilicity(1) and very rapid depuration(1,3).
Mobility in soil
The leaching behavior of phosphamidon in sand, loamy sand, loam, and silt soil in a 15 cm column was studied after 150 cm of rain applied(2). All the added phosphamidon leached through the sand and sandy loam soil, while most of the residue was in the lower third of the column(2). With the silt soil, residues were rather evenly distributed throughout the column and in the leachate, although the greatest fraction of residue was in the upper third of the column. In contrast with the good total recoveries in the other cases, recovery with the silt column was only 39%(2). According to a soil thin layer chromatography study with four soils, phosphamidon was very mobile (retardation factor (Rf) 0.91-0.92) in a silt loam (0.83% organic matter, pH 7.9), silt loam (0.72% organic matter, pH 6.6), and a fine sandy loam (0.52% organic matter, pH 8.8)(1). It was less mobile (Rf = 0.66) in a sandy loam (0.69% organic matter, pH 10.5)(1).
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.
