[Fire Fighting]

This is an organophosphate pesticide. Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Wear positive pressure breathing apparatus and special protective clothing. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing at the site. Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Fight fire from maximum distance. Dike fire control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material.Extinguish with dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, fog, or foam.
[Fire Potential]

Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily.
[Ingestion]

Seek medical assistance.
[Inhalation]

Move victim to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
[Skin]

Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin.
[Eyes]

Immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes.
[Storage]

Keep in a cool, dry, dark location in a tightly sealed container or cylinder. Keep away from incompatible materials, ignition sources and untrained individuals. Secure and label area. Protect containers/cylinders from physical damage.
[Handling]

All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood.
[Inhalation]

Dyspnea, rales, bronchorrhea, bronchospasm, or tachypnea may be noted. Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema may occur in severe cases. Chemical pneumonitis may be seen.
[Skin]

Sweating is a consistent but not universal sign.
[Eyes]

Constriction of the pupil, tearing, and blurred vision are common. Prolonged dialation of the pupils may occur in severe poisonings. Opsoclonus has been reported in one case. Salivation commonly occurs.
[Ingestion]

Vomiting, hypersalivation, diarrhea, fecal incontinence and abdominal pain may occur.
[Hazards]

This is an organophosphate pesticide. Some of these materials may burn but none of them ignite readily. Container may explode in heat of fire. Degraded by acids and alkalis.

[Personal Protection]

Workers. Must be given personal protective equipment comprising overalls made of a tight fabric or polyvinyl chloride, gloves and rubber boots. The eyes should be protected by goggles.
[Respirators]

Must wear a respirator with an activated-carbon gas filter cartridge affording protection for a determined number of hours.
[Exposure Effects]

Fever, low heart rate and abnormally low blood pressure, or rapid heart rate and elevated blood pressure may occur. Headache, dizziness, muscle spasms and profound weakness are common. Alterations of level of consciousness, anxiety, paralysis, seizures and coma may occur. Seizures may be more common in children.
