Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Do not store near feed, food.

Norfolk loamy sand samples (with and without organic matter added) showed increased dsma decomposition relative to soil organic matter. this suggests adaptation of microbial population to metabolize methyl carbon of maa /methanearsonic acid/.
Leghorn hens (groups of 5) were fed a diet containing 200 ppm of the herbicide Angar 8100 (active principle disodium methylarsenate) for 30 days ... /until/ slaughter; a similar group was fed the same diet containing 2 g sunflower pectin. Considerable residues /were/ found in the former group, the level in tissue being 0.0250 mg/kg; however, addition of pectin to the diet produced a 30-80% decline, the level in tissue being 0.0047 mg/kg.
Type of clay mineral may be responsible for different fixation tendencies ... kaolinite removed much more dsma from soln than did vermiculite. smaller size fractions of augusta silt loam ... absorbed larger percentages of maa /methanearsonic acid/ present in solution.

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.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
