Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
If inhaledIf breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.
In case of skin contactWash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.
In case of eye contactRinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.
If swallowedNever give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.
4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedMaterial may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through skin. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Material affects neural transmission. In sufficient concentrations, material may cause metabolic acidosis, respiratory arrest, and cardiac arrhythmias. (EPA, 1998)
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessaryPancuronium is a pharmacologic antidote and is recommended in severely poisoned human patients. Propranolol appears to block some of the cardiac toxicity (such as cardiac arrhythmias) of 4-aminopyridine. Seizures can be treated with diazepam. In severe cases, phenobarbital or phenytoin can be given, if no response to diazepam. In case of avitrol ingestion, general symptomatic and supportive treatment includes emesis, gastric lavage, activated charcoal, and cathartic sodium thiosulfate. Bicarbonate should be added tot he fluids to treat acidosis.

AEROBIC: 4-Aminopyridine, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). In a screening test, which utilized 5 mL garden soil suspensions with glucose, yeast extract and mineral salts, 4-aminopyridine completely degraded in greater than 170 days under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions(2). For flooded soils, 76.4 and 79.0% of the original radio labeled 4-aminopyridine was mineralized to CO2 within 60 days in a Fargo clay and Barnes sandy loam soil at 20°C and pHs of 7.7, and 7.4, respectively(3). In addition, only 6, 18 and 24% of the original radio labeled 4-aminopyridine was mineralized to CO2 within 60 days in a Barnes sandy loam, Towner loamy fine sand and Fargo clay at 20°C and pHs of 7.4, 7.2 and 7.7, respectively(3). An aerobic biological screening study, which utilized a 10 mg/L yeast extract and an Aeric Ochraqualf soil for inocula, indicated that 4-aminopyridine is not readily biodegradable(4); at 28°C and a pH of 7, less than 1% of an initial 14.6 ppm of 4-aminopyridine was mineralized in greater than 30 days as evidenced via the release of inorganic nitrogen(4). An acclimated aerobic soil grab sample study demonstrated slow biodegradation of 4-aminopyridine(5). 4-Aminopyridine was added to Fincastle silt loam (Aeric Ochraqualf) with a pH of 6.7 and incubated at 25°C(5); within 64 days, 6.1% of the available nitrogen was released to inorganic forms(5); sterilized controls lost 14.9% of the starting material to volatilization, but did not release inorganic nitrogen(5). Aerobic biotic half-lives of 4-aminopyridine in soil are reported to range between 3 and 32 months(6).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialBCF values of <0.2-0.6 (at 50 mg/L) and <1.8-7.2 (at 5 mg/L concentration) were measured in carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over an 8-week period for 4-aminopyridine(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF ranges suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
12.4 Mobility in soilUsing a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for 4-aminopyridine can be estimated to be 35(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 4-aminopyridine is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The pKa of 4-aminopyridine is 9.17(3), indicating that this compound will exist predominantly in cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). In addition, aromatic amines are expected to bind strongly to humus or organic matter in soils due to the high reactivity of the aromatic amino group(5,6), suggesting that mobility may be much lower in some soils(SRC).
