Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.

Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.

SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound may include local irritation of the eyes skin and respiratory tract; dermatitis, gasping, coughing, substernal pain, extreme respiratory distress, lacrimation, central nervous system depression, skin irritation, acute gastrointestinal distress with pulmonary congestion and edema. It also may cause injury to the liver, kidneys and heart. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. It may also cause lacrimation. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes. (NTP, 1992)

1. FLUSH contaminating fumigants from the skin and eyes with copious amounts of water or saline for at least 15 minutes. Some fumigants are corrosive to the cornea and may cause BLINDNESS. Specialized medical treatment should be obtained promptly following removal of toxicant by copious flushing with clean water. Skin contamination may cause BLISTERING and deep chemical burns. Absorption of some fumigants across the skin may be sufficient to cause systemic poisoning in the absence of fumigant inhalation. For all these reasons, decontamination of eyes and skin must must be IMMEDIATE and THOROUGH. 2. REMOVE victims of fumigant inhalation to FRESH AIR immediately. Even though initial symptoms and signs are mild, keep the victim quiet, in a semi-reclining position. Minimum pohysical activity limits the likehood ofpulmonary edema. 3. If victim is not breathing, clear the airway of secretions and RESUSCITATE with positive pressure oxygen apparatus. If this is not available, use chest compression to sustain respiration. If victim is pulseless, employ cardiac resuscitation. 4. If PULMONARY EDEMA is evident, there are several measures available to sustain life. Medical judgement must be relied upon, however, in the management of each case. The following procedures are generally recommended: A. Put the victim in a SITTING position with a backrest. B. Use intermittent and/or continuous positive pressure OXYGEN to relieve hypoxemia. ... C. Slowly administer FUROSEMIDE, 40 mg, or SODIUM ETHACRYNATE, 50 mg, to reduce venous load by inducing diuresis. ... D. Morphine in small doses (5-10 mg), slowly, iv to allay anxiety and promote deeper respiratory excursions. E. Administer AMINOPHYLLINE (0.25-0.50 gm) slowly, iv. ... F. Digitalization may be considered, but there is a serious risk of arrhythmias in an anoxic and toxic myocardium. G. TRACHEOSTOMY may be necessary in some cases to facilitate aspiration of large amounts of pulmonary edema fluid. H. Epinephrine, atorpine, and expectorants are generally not helpful, and may complicate treatment. I. Watch for RECURRENT PULMONARY EDEMA, even up to 2 weeks after the initial episode. Limit victim's physical activity for at least 4 weeks. Severe physical weakness usually indicates persistent pulmonary injury. Serial pulmonary function testing may be useful in assessing recovery. 5. Combat SHOCK by placing victim in the Trendelenburg position and administering plasma, whole blood, and/or electrolyte and glucose solutions intravenously, with great care, to avoid pulmonary edema. Central venous pressure should be monitored continously. Vasopressor amines must be given with great caution, because of the irritability of the myocardium. 6. Control CONVULSIONS. Seizures are most likely to occur in poisonings by methyl bromide, hydrogen cyanide, acrylonitrile, phosphine, and carbon disulfide. ... Fumigant poisoning

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.

Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).

Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

AEROBIC: The reported half-lives for 1,3-dichloropropene (isomer not specified) were 12 days in Catlin silt loam soil and 54 days in Fuquay loamy sand soil(1). The major nonvolatile degradates isolated from the soils were cis/trans-3-chloroprop-2-en-1-ol (3-chloroallyl alcohol) and cis/trans-3-chloroprop-2-enoic acid (3-chloroacrylic acid)(1). Numerous naturally-occurring carboxylic acids were also identified as degradates(1). Twelve weeks after radiolabeled cis-1,3-dichloropropene was added to soil and stored in sealed containers, 19% remained in sandy loam and 10% remained in medium loam(2). After 20 weeks, 5% remained in sandy loam and 3% remained in the medium loam(2). The half-life of the dichloropropene was 3-4 weeks in sandy loam. The primary degradation product was cis-3-chloroallyl alcohol(2). It was possible that some of the parent compound was lost by volatilization(2). In another study, after intensive treatment of 10 soils with cis-1,3-dichloropropene, all soils were adapted and showed enhanced biodegradation of this compound(3). Cis- and trans-1,3-dichloropropene disappeared in sandy soils (15-20 deg C, closed containers) at a rate of 2.5-3%/day (with an avg half-life of 24 days) (4). The half-life of 1,3-dichloropropene (cis and trans isomers) in 13 aerobic soils at 20 deg C ranged from 6-17 days(5).

An estimated BCF of 8 was calculated for cis-1,3-dichloropropene(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.06(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

The calculated Freundlich adsorption coefficients (Kd) for 1,3-dichloropropene (isomers not specified) were 0.23 and 0.32 for loamy sand and sand soils, respectively(1); Kd was 0.49 and 1.09 for clay soils(1). The avg max Koc values were 20 for sand, 25 for loamy sand, and 41 and 42 for two clay soils(1). The avg Koc of cis-1,3-dichloropropene in 3 soils with organic carbon contents of 3.19, 10.4, and 55.1% was 27(2). According to a classification scheme(3), Koc values from 25 to 42 suggest that cis-1,3-dichloropropene is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). In 30-cm columns of sand, loamy sand, and Florida clay, 1,3-dichloropropene (isomers not specified) leached when more than 25 inches of water were applied(1); a total of 1.9% to 4.6% of the applied (unaged) radioactivity remained in the soils and 70% to 84% was found in the leachate(1). Aged (eg, 31 days) 1,3-dichloropropene (isomers not specified) residues were very mobile, with 25.6% to 32.0% of the applied radioactivity in the leachates of 30-cm columns of loamy sand soil(1). 1,3-Dichloropropene (isomers not specified) and the degradates 3-chloroallyl alcohol, chloroacrylic acid, and composite carboxylic acids (including acetic acid, oxalic acid, and propionic acid) were detected in both the leachates and the upper 2-cm soil segment extracts(1).
