4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedSYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound may include nausea, anorexia, vomiting, diarrhea, glossitis, dysphagia, enterocolitis, inflammatory lesions (with monilial overgrowth) in the anogenital region; edema, benign intracranial hypertension, anaphylaxis, anaphylactoid purpura, pericarditis, exacerbation of systemic lupus erythematosus, hemolytic anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia and eosinophilia. It can cause hypersensitivity reactions, such as rashes, urticaria, dermatitis, atrophic or hypertrophic glossitis, burning of the eyes, cheilosis, pruritus ani or vulvae, vaginitis and fever. Other symptoms of exposure to this type of compound include gastrointestinal disturbances with flatulence, drug fever, rise in blood urea and clinical deterioration in those with renal impairment. This class of compounds may also cause an overgrowth of resistant organisms (such as Candida species and other fungi) in the mouth and intestines, producing angular stomatitis, and rectal and vaginal irritation. It may also cause marked changes in the intestinal flora, resulting in multiplication of resistant organisms and deficiency of B vitamins. Staphylococcal enterocolitis may occur suddenly, often ending fatally. It may cause liver damage, especially in pregnancy. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition this compound emits very toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride and nitrogen oxides.

10.2 Chemical stabilitySTABLE IN AIR, BUT EXPOSURE TO STRONG SUNLIGHT CAUSES IT TO DARKEN. /OXYTETRACYCLINE DIHYDRATE/
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactionsOXYTETRACYCLINE HYDROCHLORIDE is sensitive to light. It may be unstable at temperatures above 25°C. It darkens on exposure to sunlight or to moist air above 90°C. Concentrated aqueous solutions at neutral pH hydrolyze on standing. This chemical undergoes hydrolysis in the presence of water. It may be incompatible with alkalis.

AEROBIC: Oxytetracycline in a soil and manure sample underwent 0% degradation after 180 days(1). Fifty percent degradation of oxytetracycline took place in an aerobic sediment slurry after 43.8 days(1). Oxytetracycline in soil was degraded to 17 and 39% of the initial concentrations of 60 and 600 mg, respectively, after 35 days and to 3 and 29% of the initial concentrations of 120 and 1200 mg/kg, respectively, after 100 days during manometric respirometry tests(2).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF of 0.12 was calculated for oxytetracycline(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.90(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soilKoc values measured for oxytetracycline were 42,506 in Askov sandy loam soil (1.6% organic carbon), 93,317 in Flakkebjerg sandy loam soil (1.1% organic carbon), 27,792 in Borris loamy sand (1.5% organic carbon), and 47,881 in Lundgaard sandy soil (1.4% organic carbon)(1,2,3,4). The Koc of oxytetracycline measured in manure (49% organic carbon) was 195(4,5). According to a classification scheme(6), this range of Koc values suggests that oxytetracycline is expected to have moderate to no mobility in soil. Based on a measured pKa value of 9.5 (tertiary amine)(5), oxytetracycline is expected to exist primarily as a cation in the environment and cations generally have lower mobility in soil than their neutral counterparts(7).
12.5 Other adverse effectsno data available
13.Disposal considerations 13.1 Disposal methods ProductThe 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 packagingContainers 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.
