Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Linear alkylbenzenesulfonic acid is absorbed through the gills and body surface of fish (carp), distributed via blood to the various tissues and organs, transported to the hepatopancreas (liver for goldfish and others), and subsequently, via bile, eliminated with the feces. Linear alkylbenzenesulfonic acid
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
If material is on fire or involved in a fire: Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use "alcohol" foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical. Use water spray to knock-down vapors.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: May give off SO 3 , SO 2 and H 2 S (USCG, 1999)
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking liquid in sealable non-metallic containers. Cautiously neutralize remainder with sodium bicarbonate.
Environmental precautions
Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking liquid in sealable non-metallic containers. Cautiously neutralize remainder with sodium bicarbonate.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Water spill: Neutralize with agricultural lime (calcium oxide), crushed limestone (calcium carbonate), or sodium bicarbonate. If dissolved, apply activated carbon at ten times the spilled amount in region of 10 ppm or greater concn. Use mechanical dredges or lifts to remove immobilized masses of pollutants and precipitates.
