AR ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH (FATHEAD MINNOW) TEST SUBSTANCE___________________ Identity: A mixture containing perfluorooctanesulfonate, which may also be referred to as PFOS, FC-95, or as a component of FC-3017. (1Octanesulfonic acid) (CAS # 2795-39-3). Remarks: The 3M production lot number was not noted. The test sample is FC-3017. Current information indicates FC-3017 is a mixture of 0.67% PFOS, 20% diethylene glycol butyl ether, 55.41% water, 21% ethylene glycol, 1.33% Hydroxy foamer, 1% sodium octyl sulfate, 0.5% polyoxyethylene monooctylphenyl ether, 0.04% sodium lauryl sulfate, and 0.05% tolyltraizole. The following summary applies to a mixture with incompletely characterized concentrations o f impurities. Data may not accurately reflect toxicity o f the fluorochemical component o f the test sample. METHOD:____________________________________________________ Method: OECD Guideline 203 Type: Acute static-renewal GLP: No Year completed: 1995 Species: Pimephales promelas Supplier: Aquatic Biosystems, Inc., Fort Collins, CO. Analytical monitoring: Temperature, pH, and DO. Exposure period: 96-hours Statistical methods: Not given. Test fish age: Juveniles (121 - 1 3 2 days) Length and weight: Average length = 23 mm Average weight = 0.0908 g (wet) Loading: 0.504 g/L Pretreatment: None Test conditions: Dilution water: Carbon-filtered well water Dilution water chemistry: Dissolved Oxygen: 8.4 mg/L pH: 8.4 Lighting: Not given. Stock and test solution preparation: The test material was added directly to the dilution water on a weight/volume basis and mixed well with a glass rod. Concentrations dosing rate: Once for the control, 1.0 and 10 mg/L exposures. Twice for the 100 mg/L exposure, and three times for the 1000 mg/L exposure. Stability of the test chemical solutions: Not noted. Exposure vessels: 2.0 L beakers containing 1.8 L test solution. 002799 Number o f replicates: 1 for 1,10, and 100 mg/L exposures, control and 1000 mg/L exposure were duplicate. Number o f fish per replicate: 10. Number o f concentrations: four plus a blank control W ater chem istry during the study: pH range (0-96 hours): 8.0 - 8.4 (control exposure) 7.7 - 8.4 (1000 mg/L exposure) Temperature range (0-96 hours): 17.8 - 19.9 C Dissolved oxygen range (0-96 hours): 6.5 - 8.4 mg/L (control exposure) 0.7 - 8.4 mg/L (1000 mg/L exposure) RESULTS Nominal concentrations: Blank control, 1,10,100, and 1000 mg/L Element values: 96-hour LC50 = >1000 mg/L Element values based on nominal concentrations Remarks: Testing was conducted on the mixture as described in the Test Substance Remarks field. The values reported apply to that mixture and not the fluorochemical proportion alone. CONCLUSIONS______________________________________________ The test sample 96-hour LC50 for fathead minnow was determined to be >1000 mg/L, the highest concentration tested. No mortality was observed at this concentration. Subm itter: 3M Company, Environmental Laboratory, P.O. Box 33331, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55133 DATA QUALITY______________________________________________ R eliability: Klimisch ranking = 3. Testing approach inconsistent among exposure concentrations, with a combination of static and static-renewal techniques used. Sample purity was not properly characterized and the study lacks analytical confirmation of the amount of fluorochemical proportion in the> solution.
