4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may be absorbed through the skin and may cause irritation. It is a positive animal carcinogen. When heated to decomposition this material emits toxic fumes of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides.
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 if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the 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. /Poisons A and B/

12.2 Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: 2-Aminoanthraquinone, present at 100 mg/L, reached 1% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
BCF values of 18-46 and 27-43 were measured in fish for 2-aminoanthraquinone using carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over a 6-week period to test chemical concentrations of 5 and 50 mg/L, respectively(1). According to a classification scheme(3), these BCF ranges suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Koc of 2-aminoanthraquinone is estimated as 4,300(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.31(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-aminoanthraquinone is expected to have slight mobility in soil.

13.Disposal considerations
13.1 Disposal methods
Product
The 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.
