Airway protection. Ensure 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.

12.2 Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Half-lives in turf grass soil and other soils of 5 and 15-40 days, respectively, have been reported for isoxathion(1). Isoxathion was added to fresh water inoculums from three ponds near Nagoya City, Japan and using the Handai biodegradation test method(2). Biodegradation rates were measured at different times over the years were as follows: Ara-ike (irrigation reservoir), June 1991 thru October 1992, 6-23% after 4-day incubation; Makinoga-oke (located in a park near a residential area and a golf course), July 1990 thru April 1991, 0-31% after 4-day incubation; Tatsuga-ike (boating pond in a park), July 1989-March 1992, 14-22% after 4-day incubation(2). In comparison to aniline which exhibited a biodegradation rate as high as 86%, this compound is not expected to biodegrade rapidly(2).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 150 was calculated for isoxathion(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.73(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). However, aquatic organisms readily metabolize this class of compounds(4) and organophosphates can be altered chemically(5) once released into the environment.
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Koc of isoxathion in turf grass soil is 14,568(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that isoxathion is expected to be immobile in soil. Rf (retention factor) values for isoxathion were reported as 0.63, 0.50, and 0.62, using three Japanese soils - Hiratsuka (sandy loam, 69.8% sand, 19.6% silt, 10.6% clay, 3.2% organic matter, pH 5.9), Tanashi (loam, 60.5% sand, 30.2% silt, 9.3% clay, 8.4% organic matter, pH 6.0), and Yasu (sandy loam, 56.6% sand, 29.9% silt, 1.56% clay, 1.8% organic matter, pH 4.9), respectively(3).
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.
