Description of first aid measures
General advice:
First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection and use the recommended protective
clothing (chemical resistant gloves, splash protection). If potential for exposure exists refer to Section
8 for specific personal protective equipment.

Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call an emergency responder or
ambulance, then give artificial respiration; if by mouth to mouth use rescuer protection (pocket mask
etc). Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should
be administered by qualified personnel.

Skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap and plenty of water for 15-20
minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. Wash clothing before reuse.
Shoes and other leather items which cannot be decontaminated should be disposed of properly.

Eye contact: Hold eyes open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. Remove
contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eyes. Call a poison control
center or doctor for treatment advice. Suitable emergency eye wash facility should be immediately
available.

Ingestion: Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have person sip a
glass of water if able to swallow. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by the poison control
center or doctor. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:

Aside from the information found under Description of first aid measures (above) and Indication of
immediate medical attention and special treatment needed (below), any additional important
symptoms and effects are described in Section 11: Toxicology Information.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Notes to physician: Maintain adequate ventilation and oxygenation of the patient. May cause
asthma-like (reactive airways) symptoms. Bronchodilators, expectorants, antitussives and
corticosteroids may be of help. If hemolysis is suspected, monitor hemoglobin, hematocrit, plasma
free hemoglobin, and urinalysis. Whole blood or packed RBC transfusion may be required in severe
cases. Alkalinization of urine with bicarbonate may prevent renal damage. If burn is present, treat as
any thermal burn, after decontamination. No specific antidote. Treatment of exposure should be
directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. Have the Safety Data
Sheet, and if available, the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or
doctor, or going for treatment. Skin contact may aggravate preexisting dermatitis. Repeated
excessive exposure may aggravate preexisting lung disease.

5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media: Water fog or fine spray. Dry chemical fire extinguishers. Carbon
dioxide fire extinguishers. Foam. Alcohol resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred. General purpose
synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, but will be less effective.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: No data available

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Hazardous combustion products: During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition
to combustion products of varying composition which may be toxic and/or irritating. Combustion
products may include and are not limited to: Carbon monoxide. Carbon dioxide.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Container may rupture from gas generation in a fire
situation. Violent steam generation or eruption may occur upon application of direct water stream to
hot liquids. Dense smoke is produced when product burns.

Advice for firefighters

Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Consider
feasibility of a controlled burn to minimize environment damage. Foam fire extinguishing system is
preferred because uncontrolled water can spread possible contamination. Use water spray to cool fire
exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is out and danger of reignition has passed. Fight
fire from protected location or safe distance. Consider the use of unmanned hose holders or monitor
nozzles. Immediately withdraw all personnel from the area in case of rising sound from venting safety
device or discoloration of the container. Burning liquids may be extinguished by dilution with water.
Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire. Eliminate ignition sources. Move container from fire
area if this is possible without hazard. Burning liquids may be moved by flushing with water to protect
personnel and minimize property damage. Contain fire water run-off if possible. Fire water run-off, if
not contained, may cause environmental damage. Review the "Accidental Release Measures" and
the "Ecological Information" sections of this (M)SDS.

Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing

apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers,
boots, and gloves). Avoid contact with this material during fire fighting operations. If contact is likely,
change to full chemical resistant fire fighting clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus. If this is
not available, wear full chemical resistant clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus and fight
fire from a remote location. For protective equipment in post-fire or non-fire clean-up situations, refer
to the relevant sections.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Evacuate area. Refer
to section 7, Handling, for additional precautionary measures. Only trained and properly protected
personnel must be involved in clean-up operations. Keep upwind of spill. Ventilate area of leak or
spill. No smoking in area. Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spill or released vapor to avoid
fire or explosion. Vapor explosion hazard. Keep out of sewers. Use appropriate safety equipment.
For additional information, refer to Section 8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection.

Environmental precautions: Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or
groundwater. See Section 12, Ecological Information. Spills or discharge to natural waterways is likely
to kill aquatic organisms.

4/16
Product name: STARANE™ 200EC Herbicide Issue Date: 03.03.2020

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Contain spilled material if possible.
