Report Date: 10 June 1999 (in-life); 19 April 1999 (analytical). Study Year and GLP stats: 1997-1999 and GLP study Procedures: Groups of male and female rats (35/sex/group) were administered (daily oral intubation) PFOS at dose levels of 0,0.1,0.4, 1.6, and 3.2 mg/kg/day. Dosing started when the animals were = 70 days old. The male and female rats (Fy generation) were dosed for 42 days prior to mating. After mating, dosing continued in the mated females. throughout gestation. At day 10 of gestation, Caesarean section was done on 10 females/group to check for any effects in early gestation. The remaining 25 females/group were allow to deliver their liters. Dosing of the females continued during the 21-day lactation period. At weaning, 2 males and 2 females per litter were randomly selected for continuation on the study (Fy generation). Note: Because of post-natal effects at high doses (see below for details) only three groups of Fj animals continued the study, namely 0, 0.1 and 0.4 mg/kg/day. Daily dosing began in the Fy pups the day after weaning and continued throughout their

apparent sill-births and increased pup deaths during the first 24 to 72 hours after birth. Necropsy of dead pups revealed many had not nursed ~ no milk curd in the stomach.
Reflex and physical development (surface righting, pinna unfolding, eye opening,
acoustic startle reflex. air right reflex, pupil constriction) was not affected in the 0.1 &
0.4 mg/kg/day Fi pups. Some of these parameters were slightly delayed in the 1.6
mg/kg/day Fy pups and they were not evaluated at the high dose (3.2 mg/kg/day) as no
pups survived beyond four days post-natal.
Because of adverse effects in the higher two dose levels (1.6 & 3.2 mg/kg/day) Fi pups,
reduced survival and/or reduced growth, the decision was made, in conjunction with the
attending laboratory veterinarian, not to continue these two dose levels into the second
generation. It had been determined that dose of 1.6 mg/kg/day or higher produced
`compound toxicity. Continuance of these dose levels would not result in any additional
useful information and would subject the animals to unnecessary stress.
Death did not occur post-weaning in the Fy animals nor were there any compound related
clinical signs. The male and female Fy rats in the 0.4 mg/kg/day group had somewhat
reduced body weight and food consumption; at some points in time (weeks of growth) the
differences from controls were statistically significant. The appearance of extemal
evidence of sexual development (preputial separation in males & vaginal patency in
.
females) was not affected at either dose level. Also, the passive avoidance and water
maze testing did not reveal any differences in regard to leaming, short-term retention nor
long-term memory. Likewise, none of the mating or reproductive performance
measurements (parameters) were adversely affected inthe 0.1 & 0.4 mg/kg/day F, male
and female rats when they were mated and allowed to deliver litters. There were no
significant differences in regard to Fa pup survival or pup weights at weaning,
Conclusions: The results of the study indicated the following NOEL levels.
The Fy maternal and paternal NOEL is 0.1 mg/kg/day. [higher dose levels had reduced body weight and food consumption]
`The Fo reproductive NOEL is > 3.2 mg/kg/day. [no effect on reproductive performance even at highest dose level)
The F; post-natal NOEL is 0.4 mg/kg/day. (higher dose levels had reduced pup viability and growth]
`The Fy matemal and paternal NOEL is 0.1 mg/kg/day. (0.4 mg/kg/day animals had reduced body weight and food consumption]
The Fy reproductive NOEL is > 0.4 mg/kg/day. [no effect on reproductive performance at either 0.1 or 0.4 mg/kg/day]
`The F: post-natal NOEL is 0.4 mg/kg/day. [no important toxicological effect on pup survival or growth at either 0.1 or 0.4 mg/kg/day]

. Compound Level Samples: At the terminal sacrifice of the Fy males (after mating was completed), serum and liver samples were collected from 5 males in each of the dose groups. Serum samples were collected from 5 Fy females in all the dose groups except 3.2 mg/kg/day group at the terminal sacrifice the day after weaning the F liters. Liver samples were collected from the same Fo females and liver samples were also collected from the weaned Fy pups of the same dams. Analysis of the samples for PFOS (3M Analytical Report TOX012) yielded the following mean PFOS concentrations, Male Fo Serum: control - 0.024 ppm, 0.1 mg/kg/day ~ 10.5 ppm, 0.4 mg/kg/day -- 45.4 ppm, 1.6 mg/kg/day -- 152 ppm, 3.2 mg/kg/day - 273 ppm. Male Fo Liver: control - 0.665 ppm, 0.1 mg/kg/day - 84.9 ppm, 0.4 mg/kg/day - 176 ppm, 1.6 mg/kg/day - 323 ppm, 3.2 mg/kg/day ~ 1357 ppm. Female Fo Serum: control ~ 0.037 ppm, 0.1 mg/kg/day -- 5.28 ppm, 0.4 mg/kg/da~y 18.9 ppm, 1.6 mg/kg/day - 82.0 ppm. Female Fo Liver: control ~0.171 ppm, 0.1 mg/kg/day ~14.8 ppm, 0.4 mg/kg/day - 58.0 ppm, 1.6 mg/kg/day ~ 134 ppm. Pup Fy Liver: control - 0.051 ppm, 0.1 mg/kg/day~ 6.19 ppm, 0.4 mg/kg/day ~ 57.6 ppm, 1.6 mg/kg/day - 70.4 ppm. Note: Serum and liver reflect PFOS concentrations of Fo dams and Fi pups at the end of 21-day lactation, i.e. when the samples were collected. Compound levels at parturition when reduced pup survival was observed could differ and those are being measured in a follow-up PK study. Data Evaluation: A well conducted GLP study following established testing guidelines (OECD 416). Study evaluated reproductive parameters and post-natal pup evelopment including neurological parameters. The study established valid NOEL values.

B.8. Necropsy Observations (Summary - Table E18; Individual Data -
TableE34)
All necropsy observations in the F1 generation female rats were considered
unrelated to the test article because: 1) the observations occurred in rats in the
control group; and 2) the observation commonly occurs in this strain of rat.
These observations included rough and/or pitted cortex of the kidneys with
calculi in the Kidney and/or urinary bladder of two control group rats. One of
these rats also had a tan granular material in the renal cortex and thickened
walls of

B.9. Natural Delivery and Litter Observations (Summaries - Tables E19 and E20; Individual Data- Tables E35 through E38)
Pregnancy occurred in 22 (95.6%), 21 (84.0%) and 24 (96.0%) of the 23, 25 and 25 female rats assigned to cohabitation in the 0 (Vehicle), 0.1 and 0.4 mg/kg/day
dosage groups, respectively. All pregnant dams delivered litters. The gestation
index (the percentage of pregnant rats with live offspring) was comparable
across the three dosage groups.
The viability of the second generation offspring (F2 pups) was unaffected at the
highest dosage tested, 0.4 mg/kg/day. Small increases in the number of dams
with stillbom pups and in the number of pup deaths after DL 2 in the
0.4 mg/kg/day dosage group were not toxicologically important because: 1) the
values were not significantly different from the control group values; 2) the
average for live litter sizes delivered and surviving to DL 21 were greater than or
comparable to the control group values; and 3) neither the viability or lactation

Administration of the test article at dosages as high as 0.4 mg/kg/day did not adversely affect any other parameter evaluated at natural delivery or during the 21-day lactation period (duration of gestation, averages for implantations and live litter sizes, numbers of dams with all pups dying during lactation, viability and lactation indices, surviving pups per liter and pup sex ratios).
B.10. Clinical Observations from Birth to Day 21 Postpartum and Necropsy Observations (Summaries - Tables E21 and E22; Individual Data - Tables E39 and E40)
No clinical or necropsy observations were attributable to dosages of the test article as high as 0.4 mg/kg/day because: 1) the incidences were not dosagedcleipniecnadleonbts;eravnadt/ioorns2)itnhceluodbesderovnaeticoonntorcoclugrrroeudpinpuopnltyhoatnewaosr tnwoot npeusptsi.ngTohrese nursing, had decreased motor activity and was cold to the touch, one pup in each of the control and 0.4 mg/kg/day dosage groups that had a missing tip of tail and one 0.4 mg/kg/day dosage group pup that had an umbilical hema.
