Excerpt from ERG Guide 128 [Flammable Liquids (Water-Immiscible)]:；CAUTION: The majority of these products have a very low flash point. Use of water spray when fighting fire may be inefficient. CAUTION: For mixtures containing alcohol or polar solvent, alcohol-resistant foam may be more effective.；SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam. If regular foam is ineffective or unavailable, use alcohol-resistant foam.；LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam. If regular foam is ineffective or unavailable, use alcohol-resistant foam. Avoid aiming straight or solid streams directly onto the product. If it can be done safely, move undamaged containers away from the area around the fire.；FIRE INVOLVING TANKS, RAIL TANK CARS OR HIGHWAY TANKS: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned master stream devices or monitor nozzles. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. For petroleum crude oil, do not spray water directly into a breached tank car. This can lead to a dangerous boil over. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks in direct contact with flames. For massive fire, use unmanned master stream devices or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdraw from area and let fire burn. (ERG, 2024)

1. Ventilate the area of spill or leak. 2. For small quantities, absorb on paper towels. Evaporate in safe place (such as fume hood). Allow sufficient time for evaporating vapors to completely clear the hood ductwork. Burn paper in suitable location away from combustible materials.

Excerpt from ERG Guide 128 [Flammable Liquids (Water-Immiscible)]:；ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. A vapor-suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers. Use clean, non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material.；LARGE SPILL: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Water spray may reduce vapor, but may not prevent ignition in closed spaces. (ERG, 2024)

Excerpt from ERG Guide 153 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Combustible)]:；ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Stop leak if you can do it without risk.

SRP: 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.

1. By absorbing it in vermiculite, dry sand, earth or a similar material and disposing in sealed containers in secured sanitary landfill. 2. By atomizing in a suitable combustion chamber equipped with an appropriate effluent gas cleaning device.

SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

The worker should immediately wash the skin when it becomes contaminated.

Work clothing that becomes wet or significantly contaminated should be removed or replaced.

SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. Contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.

PCC4azal embryonal carcinoma tumors were grown in strain 129 mice by sc transplantation. When palpable, the tumors were treated with a combination of retinoic acid and dimethylacetamide. In vitro, this embryonal carcinoma cell line shows minimal spontaneous differentiation and is exquistely sensitive to retinoic acid and/or dimethylacetamide induction of differentiation. Ten daily 20 ul intratumor injections of a solution of 10 mg retinoic acid per ml of dimethylacetamide resulted in nearly complete induction of morphological differentiation mainly into neuropithelial and glandular derivatives. Control tumors showed minor spontaneous differentiation. Differentiation was associated with decreased tumor growth rate, decreased mitotic index, decreased extent of necrosis, and increased survival time of the hosts. In 4 of 18 cases, long-term survival of the hosts was effected by a complete differentiation of the malignant embryonal carcinoma tumors into benign teratomas. Retinoic acid: dimethylacetamide was also effective in inducing differentiation with the same dosage and schedule when admin systemically, ie, ip or sc.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 9(SRC), determined from a log Kow of -0.77(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that N,N-dimethylacetamide is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of N,N-dimethylacetamide from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 1.31X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(4). The potential for volatilization of N,N-dimethylacetamide from dry soil surfaces may exist(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 2 mm Hg(5). N,N-Dimethylacetamide is expected to be biodegradable in soil based on aqueous screening tests(6,7).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 9(SRC), determined from a log Kow of -0.77(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that N,N- dimethylacetamide is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 1.31X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(6), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). N,N-Dimethylacetamide, present at 100 mg/l reached 28% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/l and the Japanese MITI test(7). N,N-Dimethylacetamide, present at 30 mg/l, reached 80% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 100 mg/l and the Japanese MITI test(7). In other studies, N,N-dimethylacetamide, present at 400 mg/l, reached 96% of its theoretical TOC in 5 days using industrial activated sludge(8). These results from laboratory studies suggest that N,N-dimethylacetamide will biodegrade in the aquatic environment(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), N,N-dimethylacetamide, which has a vapor pressure of 2 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere(SRC). Vapor-phase N,N-dimethylacetamide is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is 28 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.36X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3).

The determination of urinary N-monomethylacetamide in the end of shift urine sample was used to monitor exposure to dimethylacetamide. Five workers were observed followed for 4 consecutive weeks. Airborne dimethylacetamide appeared to account for the greatest amount of urinary N-monomethylacetamide detected and, at the exposure concentrations encountered (0.5 to 2 ppm), a relationship of 10 ppm urinary N-monomethylacetamide inhaled was observed. Interindividual variation was small and no evidence of build-up in N-monomethylacetamide urinary levels was seen in these subjects. Mean airborne dimethylacetamide concentrations were somewhat higher by the end of the week, but magnitude was such that the differences were not statistically significant. It is concluded that changes in dimethylacetamide exposures can be quantitatively reflected by urinary N-monomethylacetamide.

A study of occupational exposure to dimethylactamide was conducted using both biological and environmental monitoring techniques. Personal and area air samples were analyzed for dimethylacetamide at a facililty manufacturing prefabricated synthetic products. Spot urine samples were collected from eight exposed and four unexposed workers for 5 consecutive work days and on the following Monday. These were analyzed for N-methylacetamide, a dimethylacetamide metabolite. Area air dimethylacetamide concentrations were generally constant, ranging from 11.81 to 17.24 ppm with a mean of 14.74 ppm. Personal dimethylacetamide concentrations showed a wide variability. The concentrations were distributed log normally with arithmetic and geometric means of 14.0 and 6.0 ppm, respectively. Urinary N-methylacetamide concentrations were not correlated with personal air dimethylacetamide concentrations. Six of the exposed workers excreted about 18% of the inhaled dimethylacetamide dose, calculated as the 8 hr time weighted average exposure, as N-methylacetamide. The other two exposed workers excreted about 30 percent of the inhaled dose as N-methylacetamide. Urinary N-methylacetamide concentrations the Monday following exposure were negligible or had returned to their preexposure values. Based on these results the half life for urinary excretion of N-methylacetamide was calculated to be 16 hours. The authors conclude that for dimethylacetamide and similar substances that are easily absorbed through the skin, biological monitoring is superior to airborne exposure monitoring for determining total uptake and evaluating potential health risks.

the assessment of dimethylacetamide exposure can be accomplished through measurement of either dimethylacetamide, N-methylacetamide (NMAC), or acetamide. Urinary levels of NMAC have been shown to correlate with airborne exposure levels of dimethylacetamide. However, no information was located which showed a correlation between urinary NMAC levels & the onset of adverse health effects. Urine Reference Ranges: Normal- None detected; Exposed- BEI (sampling time is end of shift at the end of workweek, measured as N-methylacetamide): 30 mg/g creatinine; Toxic- Not established.

Liver Function Tests: Biochemical tests - Enzymes that reflect cholestasis: alkaline phosphatase (AP), 5'-nucleotidase (5'-NT) & leucine aminopeptidase (LAP); Enzymes that detect direct hepatic damage: aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) & gammma glutamyl Transpeptidase (GGTP); Clearance tests - indocyanine green, antipyrine test and serum bile acids.

The Koc of N,N-dimethylacetamide is estimated as 9(SRC), using a measured log Kow of -0.77(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that N,N-dimethylacetamide is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC).

ANALYSIS OF HUMAN URINE AFTER OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE TO DIMETHYLACETAMIDE SHOWS N-METHYLACETAMINE. /FROM TABLE/

Gas chromatographic analysis of the urine of rats which had received dimethylacetamide by the subcutaneous route indicated the presence of N-methyl-acetamide and acetamide. Both metabolites were also found ... in incubation mixtures of dimethylacetamide with rat liver homogenate. N-Methylacetamide was detected in the urine of human volunteers who had inhaled dimethylacetamide or absorbed dimethylacetamide vapor through the skin. Measurement of the amount of the metabolite N-methylacetamide excreted by individuals exposed to dimethylacetamide vapors with or without face masks which allowed the inhalation of air free of dimethylacetamide indicated that more dimethylacetamide was absorbed through the lung than through the skin. ... Only 2-10% of the amount of dimethylacetamide inhaled was recovered in the urine in the form of N-methylacetamide. It has been suggested that the major urinary metabolite of the analogous dimethylformamide is N-(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylformamide and not N-methylformamide, since the carbinolamide decomposes on the gas chromatography column (to N-methylformamide) but is relatively stable in aqueous solution. In analogy, it would be logical to assume that the N-methylacetamide found in the urine after exposure to dimethylacetamide really arose from chemical breakdown of N-(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylacetamide during the analytical process.

N,N-dimethylacetamide is metabolized by demethylation first to monomethyl derivatives and then to the parent acetamide.

/N,N-DIMETHYLACETAMIDE/ ... READILY ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN ... .

N,N-dimethylacetamide is rapidly absorbed through biological membranes.

No correlation between personal airborne exposure and excretion of mono-methylacetamide in urine was detected during a full workshift (5 days). Most (n = 6) workers studied (n = 8) excreted about 13% of the calculated inhaled dose as metabolite in urine.

DMAC is readily absorbed in man after oral, dermal, or inhalation exposure. ... About 2% of a dose of dimethylacetamide is recovered in the urine as MMAC /N-methylacetamide/ after inhalation; 10% is recovered after inhalation plus skin exposure. Exposure to 10 ppm of DMAC results in complete excretion of MMAC with in 30 hr. Maximal concns of 45 & 100 ppm (mg/L) of MMAC in the urine are found in subjects exposed both by inhalation & skin. In workers continuously exposed to DMAC vapor (inhalation plus skin) & subjected to DMAC airborne levels of 6-22 ppm ..., about 13.5% of the estimated dose is excreted as MMAC in the urine. Some workers may excrete about 30% of a dose as MMAC.
