- RCRA Requirements: U179; As stipulated in 40 CFR 261.33, when N-nitrosopiperidine, as a commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate or an off-specification commercial chemical product or a manufacturing chemical intermediate, becomes a waste, it must be managed according to Federal and/or State hazardous waste regulations. Also defined as a hazardous waste is any residue, contaminated soil, water, or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill, into water or on dry land, of this waste. Generators of small quantities of this waste may qualify for partial exclusion from hazardous waste regulations (40 CFR 261.5).
- Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), N-nitrosopiperidine, which has a vapor pressure of 9.20X10-2 mm Hg at 20 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase N-nitrosopiperidine is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 5 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.6X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). N-Nitrosopiperidine has a UV absorption maximum of 337 nm in water(4), and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).
- Food Survey Values: 75 samples of traditionally produced pork bacon and 37 samples of 4 bacon-like products which were manufactured from turkey, beef, pork and turkey, and beef and turkey were analyzed for volatile nitrosamines following preparation. All products were purchased in the US at retail stores in Oregon, California, Washington, Maryland, and Massachusetts between September 1993 and December 1994.

N-Nitrosopiperidine is a disinfection byproduct of water treatment and in reaction of disinfectant nitrosamines with natural organic matter in surface water(3,4).
- Human Toxicity Excerpts: /ALTERNATIVE and IN VITRO TESTS/ In the present study, the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60, was used to characterize the apoptotic effects of N-nitrosamines, and to examine the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Apoptotic cells were identified by (i) chromatin condensation (ii) flow cytometry analysis and (iii) poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage. N-Nitrosopiperidine and N-nitrosodibutylamine induced morphological changes consistent with apoptotic events in HL-60 cells. Flow cytometry analysis showed that both N-nitrosamines induced apoptotic cell death in a concentration and time dependent-manner. It was observed that N-nitrosodibutylamine was stronger than N-nitrosopiperidine, since it induced a significant apoptotic cell death after 18 hr starting from...

- Natural Pollution Sources: No evidence was found that N-nitrosopiperidine has been detected as a natural product(SRC). The formation of nitrosamines in natural ecosystems in the presence of high concentrations of secondary amines and nitrite has been demonstrated(1). Nitrite concentrations may be high in localized areas in soil and food to effect nitrosation of piperidine(1).
- Atmospheric Concentrations: SOURCE DOMINATED: N-Nitrosopiperidine was detected at a range of 3.9 to 7.6 ug/cu m in air samples from a rubber vehicle sealing plant on February 16, 1994. Concentrations ranging from 1.35 to 10.17 ug/cu m were measured during a followup May 2-5, 1994 site visit(1). The compound was detected in 28% of 177 samples from 24 rubber manufacturing plants in France sampled from December 1992 to November 1995; the median concentration was 0.24 ug/cu m, maximum, 2.1 ug/cu m(2).

- Artificial Pollution Sources: N-Nitrosamines are formed by the interaction between amines and NOx or nitrites(1) which are used as additives(2). N-Nitrosopiperidine's inadvertent production as a disinfection byproduct of water treatment and in reaction of disinfectant nitrosamines with natural organic matter in surface water(3) may result in its direct release to the environment(SRC).

According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
- Volatilization from Water/Soil: The Henry's Law constant for N-nitrosopiperidine is 8.44X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that N-nitrosopiperidine is expected to be essentially nonvolatile from water surfaces(2). N-Nitrosopiperidine's Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may not occur(SRC). N-Nitrosopiperidine is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 9.20X10-2 mm Hg(3).

Monitor cardiac rhythm and treat arrhythmias if necessary. Start IV administration of D5W /SRP: "To keep open", minimal flow rate/. Use 0.9% saline (NS) or lactated Ringer's (LR) if signs of hypovolemia are present. For hypotension with signs of hypovolemia, administer fluid cautiously. If unresponsive to these measures, vasopressors may be helpful. Watch for signs of fluid overload ... . Treat seizures with diazepam or lorazepam ... .

- Shipment Methods and Regulations: PRECAUTIONS FOR "CARCINOGENS": When no regulations exist, the following procedure must be adopted. The carcinogen should be enclosed in a securely sealed, watertight container (primary container), which should be enclosed in a second, unbreakable, leakproof container that will withstand chem attack from the carcinogen (secondary container). The space between primary & secondary container should be filled with absorbent material, which would withstand chem attack from the carcinogen & is sufficient to absorb the entire contents of the primary container in the event of breakage or leakage. Each secondary container should then be enclosed in a strong outer box. The space between the secondary container & the outer box should be filled with an appropriate quantity of shock-absorbent materia...
- Environmental Abiotic Degradation: Nitrosamines are rapidly decomposed by photolysis and do not persist for a significant time in water illuminated in sunlight. Thus, it is unlikely that they will be present in high (greater than 1 mg/L) concentrations in surface waters. However, in the absence of light they can be expected to persist. /Nitrosamines/
- Probable Routes of Human Exposure: Occupational exposure to N-nitrosopiperidine may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where N-nitrosopiperidine is inadvertently produced(SRC). Workers can be exposed to nitrosamines via the air in the rubber and tire industry(1). Monitoring data indicate that the general population may be exposed to N-nitrosopiperidine via ingestion of food and drinking water(SRC). Limited data indicate that infants may be exposed to N-nitrosopiperidine via the use of rubber baby bottle nipples and pacifiers(SRC).
- Environmental Water Concentrations: SURFACE WATER: Concentrations of N-nitrosopiperidine in surface water samples at a water treatment plant and in three samples downstream (in order of decreasing distance from the plant) were 33.1, 59,8, 59,8, and 117.8 ng/L; location not specified(1).
- Other Environmental Concentrations: N-Nitrosopiperidine concentrations in various combustion smokes were as follows (ng/g): black pepper 45030; soy sauce 299; dried squid 516; pork vienna not detected; chicken 155, beef 147. It was not detected in semi-dried squid. Concentrations in combustion smokes of other non-food products were as follows (ng/g): mosquito repellent 405; hair 540; wood chips 21; rubber not detected; plastic not detected(1).
- Environmental Fate/Exposure Summary: N-Nitrosopiperidine is a disinfection byproduct of water treatment and also a byproduct in reaction of disinfectant nitrosamines with natural organic matter in surface water; these disinfectant processes may result in its direct release to the environment. N-Nitrosamines are formed by the interaction between amines and NOx or nitrites, which are used as additives. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 9.20X10-2 mm Hg at 20 °C indicates N-nitrosopiperidine will exist solely as a vapor in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase N-nitrosopiperidine will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 5 hours. N-Nitrosopiperidine has a UV absorption maximum of 337 nm in water; therefore this compound...
