4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedPoisonous; may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through the skin. Overexposure causes intense irritation and edema of the eyes, mucous membranes, respiratory tract, and skin. Prolonged exposure causes tissue destruction, chemical burns and residual scarring. The eyes may experience permanent damage. (USCG, 1999)
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 as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on 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. /Aldehydes and Related Compounds/

- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
PURE CULTURE: Pseudomonas CE1r, isolated from soil, degraded 2-chloroethanol via 2-chloroacetaldehyde and 2-chloroacetate to glycollic acid(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for chloroacetaldehyde(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 0.09(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for 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 chloroacetaldehyde can be estimated to be 1(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that chloroacetaldehyde is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
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.
