4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedno data available
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary/SRP:/ 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/

AEROBIC: Guanidine at 100 mg/L achieved 0% of its theoretical BOD over a 2 week incubation period using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). Gaunidine was degraded when incubated in stream water samples obtained near 2 nitroguanidine pilot plant facilities following long lag periods(2). Complete gaunidine degradation in the water samples ranged from 20 days(lag period 11 days) to 68 days (lag period 52 days)(2). The rate of guanidine hydrochloride degradation was studied in soil samples maintained under aerobic conditions obtained from Fort Detrick, MD(3). Rapid degradation was observed for low initial concentrations of guanidine, but rates of degradation decreased with increasing nominal concentration. At an initial concn of 10 mg/kg, guanidine was 78% biodegraded after 10 days; however, at an initial concn of 400 mg/kg, guanidine was 62% biodegraded after 25 days(3).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialBCF values of <0.1 to 0.1 were measured for carp exposed to 2 and 20 ug/L of guanidine over a 6 week incubation period(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soilUsing a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of guanidine can be estimated to be 20(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that guanidine is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of guanidine is 12.5(3), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely as a cation in the environment(SRC). As a result, guanidine may have greater adsorption and less mobility than its estimated Koc value indicates since cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than neutral species(4).

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.
