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

Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Poisons A and B

  • 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

12.2 Persistence and degradability

Octinoxate was found to be readily biodegradable using OECD Guideline 301 F (Ready Biodegradability: Manometric Respirometry Test) with a 78% degradation over a 28-day exposure period using a non-adapted activated sludge inoculum(1). Using guideline ISO 11734: Ultimate biodegradability in digested sludge, an initial octinoxate concentration of 136.1 mg/L was degraded by 67% over a 79-day exposure period under the anaerobic test conditions(1). Biological treatment of gray water containing an influent average octinoxate concentration of 15.5 ug/L reduced the average concentration to 7.9 ug/L under aerobic treatment, 3.80 ug/L under anaerobic treatment(2).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

Using OECD Guideline 305 (Bioconcentration: Flow-through Fish Test) and a 5-day exposure period, whole body BCF values of 433 and 174 were determined for octinoxate in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at respective concentrations of 70 ug/L and 700 ug/L(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of octinoxate can be estimated to be 8,600(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that octinoxate is expected to be immobile in soil.

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

SECTION 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.
