SRP: Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air quality; potential migration in air, soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations. If it is possible or reasonable use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational harm/injury/toxicity or environmental contamination.
Palytoxin stimulated a cation-dependent short-circuit current (Isc) in rat distal and proximal colon in a concentration-dependent fashion when applied to the mucosal surface of the tissue. The distal colon exhibited a higher sensitivity to the toxin. The palytoxin-induced Isc was blocked by vanadate but was resistant to ouabain or scilliroside, suggesting the conversion of a vanadate-sensitive H+/K+-ATPase into an electrogenic cation transporter. Cation substitution experiments with basolaterally depolarized tissues suggested an apparent permeability of the palytoxin-induced conductance of Na+>K+>Li+. Immunohistochemical control experiments confirmed the absence of the Na+/K+-ATPase in the apical membrane. Consequently, the pore-forming action of palytoxin is not restricted to Na+/K+-ATPase but is also observed with the colonic H+/K+-ATPase.
Red squill is a little-used rodenticide, consisting of the inner portions of a small cabbage plant grown in eastern Mediterranean countries. Its toxic properties have been known since ancient times and are probably due to cardiac glycosides. For several reasons, mammals other than rodents are unlikely to be poisoned: (1) red squill is intensely nauseant, so that animals which vomit (rodents do not) are unlikely to retain the poison; (2) the glycoside is not efficiently absorbed from the gut; and (3) absorbed glycoside is rapidly excreted. Injection of the glycosides leads to effects typical of digitalis: alterations in cardiac impulse conduction and arrhythmias.

Distension of the rat colon descendens in vitro by a hydrostatic gradient induced an increase in short-circuit current (Isc). In a mucosa-submucosa preparation containing the plexus submucosus, the increase in Isc was biphasic with a half-time of about 200 s for the spontaneous returning to the baseline. The time course was monophasic in a mucosa preparation without the plexus submucosus. The increase in Isc in the mucosa-submucosa preparation was inhibited by an inhibitor of phospholipase A2, quinacrine, and by indomethacin, tetrodotoxin or atropine; each of these compounds also abolished the second phase of the response. In contrast, only indomethacin was effective in reducing the increase in Isc in the mucosa preparation. In both preparations the response to distension was inhibited by scilliroside, by replacement of Cl- with gluconate, and by administration of frusemide or the chloride channel blocker, anthracene-9-carboxylic acid. The results indicate that distension induces chloride secretion by causing the release of prostaglandins, which act indirectly, i.e. mediated by the submucosal plexus, and directly at the epithelium.
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Scilliroside is a solid; a rodenticide that has been used since the 13th century. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: There are no data. ANIMAL STUDIES: A single sublethal dose 50 ug/rat brought about changes in cardiac physiology of bandicoot rats. Delayed myocardial repolarization and stress on cardiac tissues were noticed. Elevation of S-T segment above the isoelectric axis diagnostic of recent myocardial infarction was observed. It induced tachycardia. It is inferred that deaths may be due to delayed myocardial repolarization and tachycardia. Mammals, other than rodents, are unlikely to be poisoned. Injection of the glycosides leads to effects typical of digitalis: alterations in cardiac impulse conduction and arrhythmias.
It was estimated that 0.3 kg of scilliroside was released into the Rhine River following the Sandoz warehouse fire on November 1, 1986, in Schweizerhalle, Basel Switzerland. The compound was not detected at any of the four downstream sampling locations(1).
/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ A single sublethal dose of Vacor (1 mg/rat) or Silmurin (50 ug/rat) brought about dissimilar changes in cardiac physiology of bandicoot rats. Delayed myocardial repolarization and stress on cardiac tissues were noticed. Elevation of S-T segment above the isoelectric axis diagnostic of recent myocardial infarction was observed. Vacor and Silmurin induced differential changes in heartbeat; Vacor poisoning resulted in bradycardia, whereas Silmurin tachycardia. It is inferred that Vacor deaths may be due to bradycardia associated with atrioventricular block and that of Silmurin to delayed myocardial repolarization and tachycardia.
/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ The toxicity and efficacy of the acute rodenticide scilliroside was evaluated in the laboratory against the lesser bandicoot rat, Bandicota bengalensis. The acute oral LD50 and LD95 doses for males were 0.8 mg/kg and 2.5 mg/kg respectively, and for females were 0.5 mg/kg and 1.6 mg/kg, respectively. When caged bandicoots were given a choice between plain and poison baits, the optimum concentration of scilliroside was found to be 0.05%. Symptoms of poisoning appear from 22 to 34 min after feeding starts and the latency pattern indicated an abrupt ceasing to feed at these points. Death occurred from 2 hr to as long as 6 days after poisoning, following prolonged convulsive seizures. There appears to be aversion to scilliroside at all concentrations in food baits. Maximum mortality attained on free-choice feeding on scilliroside was 90%. Despite these disadvantages, the material may have merit as an alternative rodenticide to zinc phosphide where acute toxicants are to be used.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the capacity of specific anti-digoxin Fab fragments to bind to and neutralize scilliroside and proscillaridin in acute poisoning. Apparent affinity constants were determined with values of 2.6 10(8)M-1 for scilliroside and 3.8 10(7)M-1 for proscillaridin. These results are in accordance with a possible in-vivo neutralization of these toxins.
