First Aid Measures

Ingestion
Rinse the mouth and dilute with milk or water. For smaller ingestions, oral irrigation and dilution may be all that is necessary. Emesis is not recommended, although spontaneous vomiting may occur. Administer activated charcoal and cathartic.
Inhalation
If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Keep person warm and quiet; seek immediate medical attention.
Skin
Remove clothing and wash skin, including hair.
Eyes
Irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of tepid water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling, lacrimation, or photophobia persist, the patient should be seen in a health care facility.

Handling and Storage

Storage
Store above 10F to prevent crystallizing. If allowed to crystallize, place in warm room 68F for several days to redissolve; mix well before reuse.
Handling
All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood.

Hazards Identification

Inhalation
Life-threatening effects include pulmonary edema and aspiration pneumonitis. Irritation occurs.
Skin
Commercial glyphosate formulations have caused erythema, piloerection, and contact dermatitis.
Ingestion
Common signs - nausea and vomiting; erythema of mucous membranes; epigastric pain.

Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Personal Protection
Long-sleeved shirt, long pants, chemical protective gloves. Goggles during mixing/pouring operations in which eye contact is likely to occur.
Respirators
Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator appropriate for exposure of concern.
Exposure Effects
Mental status changes may be seen late in the course of glyphosate poisoning.

Fire Fighting Measures

Fire Fighting
Water spray, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or any class b agent.

Accidental Release Measures

Small spills/leaks
Evacuate area and ventilate. Wear protective equipment. If required, use an inert absrobent. Sweep up and place in an appropriate container for disposal. Wash contaminated surfaces.

Stability and Reactivity

Stability
Stable up to 5 years under normal conditions.
