At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Tolerances for total residues of combined arsenic (calculated as As) in food are established as follows: (a) In edible tissues & in eggs of chickens & turkeys: 0.5 ppm in uncooked muscle tissue; 2 ppm in uncooked edible by-products; & 0.5 ppm in eggs. (b) In edible tissues of swine: 2 ppm in uncooked liver & kidney; 0.5 ppm in uncooked muscle tissue & by-products other than liver & kidney. /Arsenic/

Arsenic poisoning can be treated by chelation therapy, using chelating agents such as dimercaprol, EDTA or DMSA. Charcoal tablets may also be used for less severe cases. In addition, maintaining a diet high in sulfur helps eliminate arsenic from the body. (L20)

EVOLUTION OF DIMETHYLARSINE & TRIMETHYLARSINE FROM GRASSES TREATED WITH SODIUM ARSENITE, METHYLARSONIC ACID, DIMETHYLARSINIC ACID, OR PHENYLARSONIC ACID CONFIRMED THE IDEA OF NATURAL BIOMETHYLATION.

Strongly adsorbed to soil; fixed by Fe and Al hydrous oxides in soil. Sorption increases as size of clay fraction decreases.

DECR IN PHYTOTOXICITY IS A RESULT OF FIXATION...MAINLY BY IRON & ALUMINUM HYDROUS OXIDES IN THE SOIL.

NINETEEN SAMPLES REPRESENTING 13 VARIETIES OF RED & WHITE DOMESTIC TABLE WINES WERE ANALYZED FOR ARSENITE, ARSENATE, METHYLARSONIC ACID & DIMETHYLARSINIC ACID. THE CONCN OF ARSENITE RANGED FROM LESS THAN 1 TO 420 PPB, & THE CONCN OF ARSENATE RANGED FROM 1 TO 110 PPB. METHYLARSONIC ACID WAS BELOW LIMIT OF DETECTION OF 1 PPB.

The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol and by ingestion.

Arsenic and its metabolites disrupt ATP production through several mechanisms. At the level of the citric acid cycle, arsenic inhibits pyruvate dehydrogenase and by competing with phosphate it uncouples oxidative phosphorylation, thus inhibiting energy-linked reduction of NAD+, mitochondrial respiration, and ATP synthesis. Hydrogen peroxide production is also increased, which might form reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress. Arsenic's carginogenicity is influenced by the arsenical binding of tubulin, which results in aneuploidy, polyploidy and mitotic arrests. The binding of other arsenic protein targets may also cause altered DNA repair enzyme activity, altered DNA methylation patterns and cell proliferation. (T1, A17)

Cough. Sore throat.

Redness.

Abdominal pain. Diarrhoea. Vomiting.

Exposure to lower levels of arsenic can cause nausea and vomiting, decreased production of red and white blood cells, abnormal heart rhythm, damage to blood vessels, and a sensation of burn (T1).

Methylarsenic acid was evaluated for clastogenicity in groups of 20 male Long-Evans rats injected intraperitoneally with total dose levels of 0 or 500 mg/kg bw, in three equal increments at 2 day intervals. Blood and bone marrow samples were obtained from each rat at 1 and 30 days after treatment, for determination of chromosomal abnormalities. The treatment increased the frequency of 1 type of chromosomal aberration (gap/break) in bone marrow cells obtained on day 1, indicating that the test compound was positive for clastogenicity in rats under the conditions of this assay. Positive control treatment with a single intraperitoneal injection of 0.3 mg/kg triethylenemelamine produced a significant increase in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow cells collected on day 1; bone marrow cells collected from positive control rats on day 30 and blood cells collected on day 1 or 30 were similar to negative controls in frequency of chromosomal aberrations.

THE METABOLISM OF MAA TO INORGANIC ARSENIC IS THE MAIN MECHANISM OF HERBICIDE DEGRADATION... THE ASSOC OF HERBICIDAL BREAKDOWN WITH THE GENERAL MICROBIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY SUGGESTS THAT THE OXIDATION OF MAA /METHANEARSONIC ACID/ OCCURRED COINCIDENTALLY WITH THE METAB OF SOIL ORG MATTER. ON THE OTHER HAND, BOTH NORFOLK LOAMY SAND SAMPLES (WITH & WITHOUT ORGANIC MATTER ADDED) SHOWED AN INCREASED DSMA /DISODIUM SALT OF MAA/ DECOMPOSITION RELATIVE TO SOIL ORGANIC MATTER. THIS SUGGESTED AN ADAPTATION OF THE MICROBIAL POPULATION TO METABOLIZE THE METHYL CARBON OF MAA. /INVESTIGATORS/...EXAM THE DEGRADATION OF MSMA /MONOSODIUM SALT OF MAA/ ON 4 SOILS. THEY CONCLUDED THAT SOIL MICROORGANISMS APPEARED TO PLAY SOME ROLE IN THE DECOMPOSITION PROCESS. A FUNGUS, SEVERAL ACTINOMYCETES, & SEVERAL BACTERIA WERE ISOLATED USING SOIL ENRICHMENT TECHNIQUES. THE ORGANISMS DEGRADED 3, 13 OR 9, & 20% OF THE MSMA IN 11 DAYS, RESPECTIVELY. HOWEVER, IN THE ABSENCE OF AN ENERGY SOURCE, MICROBIAL METABOLISM OF THE ORGANIC ARSENICAL WAS NONEXISTENT. THE PRODUCTS OF METABOLISM WERE CARBON DIOXIDE & ARSENATE. NO ARSENITE COULD BE DETECTED.

Listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) generally known or suspected to cause serious health problems. The Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, directs EPA to set standards requiring major sources to sharply reduce routine emissions of toxic pollutants. EPA is required to establish and phase in specific performance based standards for all air emission sources that emit one or more of the listed pollutants. Methanearsonic acid is included on this list.

For the maximum protection of human health from the potential carcinogenic effects due to exposure of arsenic through ingestion of contaminated water & contaminated aquatic organisms, the ambient water concn should be zero based on the nonthreshold assumption for this chemical. However, zero level may not be attainable at the present time. Therefore, the levels which may result in incremental increase of cancer risk over the lifetime are estimated at 1X10-5, 1X10-6, & 1X10-7. The corresponding criteria are 22 ng/l, 2.2 ng/l, & .22 ng/l, respectively .... For consumption of aquatic organisms only, excluding consumption of water, the levels are 175 ng/ml, 17.5 ng/l, & 1.75 ng/l, respectively. /Arsenic/
