5 In all cases of overexposure get medical atten-tion immediately. Take victim to a doctor or emergency treatment inhaled: Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance; then give artificial respira-tion, preferably by mouth-to-mouth, if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment swallowed: Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow. Do not induce vomitingunless told to by a poison control center or doctor. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious on skin or clothing: Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment in eyes: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye.

6 Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment TO PHYSICIANA luminum phosphide fumigants react with moisture from the air, water, acids andmany other liquids to release phosphine gas. Mild inhalation exposure causesmalaise (indefinite feeling of sickness), ringing of ears, fatigue, nausea, and pressurein the chest, which is relieved by removal to fresh air. Moderate poisoning causesweakness, vomiting, and pain just above the stomach, chest pain, diarrhea and dys-pnea (difficulty in breathing). Symptoms of severe poisoning may occur within a fewhours to several days, resulting in pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs) and may lead todizziness, cyanosis (blue or purple skin color), unconsciousness, and sufficient quantity, phosphine affects the liver, kidneys, lungs, nervous system, and cir-culatory system. Inhalation can cause lung edema (fluid in lungs) and hyperemia (excessof blood in a body part), small perivascular brain hemorrhages and brain edema (fluid inbrain).

7 Ingestion can cause lung and brain symptoms but damage to the viscera (bodyHOT LINE NUMBERHave the product container, label or Applicator s Manual with you when calling a poison control center or doctor, or going for 1-800-308-4856 FOR ASSISTANCE WITH HUMAN OR ANIMAL MEDICAL EMERGENCIES.

Phosphine poisoning may result in (1) pulmonaryedema, (2) liver elevated serum GOT, LDH and alkaline phosphatase, reduced prothrom-bin, hemorrhage and jaundice (yellow skin color) and (3) kidney hematuria (blood in urine)and anuria (abnormal lack of urination). Pathology is characteristic of hypoxia (oxygendeficiency in body tissue). Frequent exposure to concentrations above permissible levelsover a period of days or weeks may cause poisoning.

8 Treatment is following measures are suggested for use by the physicians in accordance withtheir own its milder forms, symptoms of poisoning may take some time (up to 24 hours) tomake their appearance and the following is suggested:1. Give complete rest for 1-2 days, during which the patient must be kept quiet and Should the patient suffer from vomiting or increased blood sugar, appropriate solu-tions should be administered. Treatment with oxygen breathing equipment is rec-ommended, as is the administration of cardiac and circulatory cases of severe poisoning (intensive care unit recommended):1. Where pulmonary edema is observed, steroid therapy should be considered andclose medical supervision is recommended. Blood transfusions may be In case of manifest pulmonary edema, venesection should be performed undervein pressure control. Heart glycosides ( ) (in case of hemocencentration,venesection may result in shock).

9 Upon progressive edema of lungs, immediateintubation with a constant removal of edema fluid and oxygen over-pressure res-piration, as well as measures required for shock treatment are recommended. Incase of kidney failure, extracorporeal hemodialysis is necessary. There is nospecific antidote known for this Mention should be made here of suicidal attempts by taking solid aluminumphosphide by the mouth. After swallowing, emptying of the stomach by vomiting,flushing of the stomach with diluted potassium permanganate solution or a solu-tion of magnesium peroxide until flushing liquid ceases to smell of carbide, is rec-ommended. Thereafter, apply medicinal INFORMATIONFUMITOXIN TABLETS and PELLETS are used to protect stored commodities fromdamage by insects. In limited areas, applications of FUMITOXIN may be made tocontrol burrowing vertebrate pests. For a list of approved burrowing rodent applica-tion sites see Section metal phosphide fumigants are acted upon by atmospheric moisture toproduce phosphine gas.

10 FUMITOXIN TABLETS and PELLETS contain aluminum phosphide (AlP) as their activeingredient and will liberate phosphine via the following chemical reaction:AlP + 3H2O ---> Al(OH)3+ PH3 Phosphine gas is highly toxic to insects, burrowing pests, humans, and other forms of ani-mal life. In addition to its toxic properties, the gas will corrode certain metals and may ignitespontaneously in air at concentrations above its lower flammable limit of v/v (18,000ppm). These hazards will be described in greater detail later on in this Applicator s also contains ammonium carbamate, which liberates ammonia and car-bon dioxide as follows:NH2C00NH4---> 2NH3+ CO2 These gases are essentially non-flammable and act as inerting agents to reduce prepared in two spherical shapes. The rounded TABLETS weighapproximately 3 grams and will release 1 gram of phosphine gas. They are about16mm in diameter. The PELLETS are about 10 mm in diameter, weigh gram and release gram of phosphine are provided in 21kg cases, contain 14 resealable, gas-tightflasks of 500 TABLETS each or 70 flasks of 100 TABLETS are provided in 21kg cases containing 14 resealable, gas-tightflasks of 1660 PELLETS each or 14 flasks of 2490 PELLETS exposure to air, FUMITOXIN PELLETS and TABLETS begin to react with atmos-pheric moisture to produce small quantities of phosphine gas.
