The test substance was characterized by the sponsor prior to the initiation of this study. A certificate of analysis was provided. Although the characterization was not performed under Good Laboratory Practice Standards, the accuracy of the data is considered sufficient for the purposes o f this study. The reference substance is a commercially available material. The certificate o f analysis (COA) was provided by the supplier and the accuracy o f the data is considered sufficient for the purposes of this study. The stock test solutions were analyzed; however, the analysis was not performed in compliance with GLP. Analysis to confirm concentration and uniformity of the test solutions was not performed. This is believed not to affect the validity of the study because the test and reference substances were accurately measured and added to the test vessels. Study Director 'ufr William R.

Berti, Ph.D. 1.0 Summary Test System Telomer B 8-2 Alcohol was tested for toxicity towards activated sludge according to OECD Guideline 209 in the version dated 4-April-1984. For the determination of the toxic behavior of the test substance, activated sludge from the aeration tank of a municipal sewage treatment plant was exposed to the test substance at 100,320,1000,3200, and 10000 pg L"1nominal concentration. After 30 minutes of incubation period the inhibition o f the respiration rate of the activated sludge was determined in comparison to a test solution without any test substance. Findings Under the conditions of the test, the highest test concentration with 10000 pg test substance in 1 liter tapwater exhibited less than 20% inhibition o f the respiration rate, which is the detection imit of the system. Conclusions The EC50o f the test substance is estimated to be greater than 10000 pg L'1(10 mg L'1). 2.0 General Study Information Study Objectives The aim o f this study was the determination of the acute toxic behaviour o f Telomer B 8-2 Alcohol towards the microorganisms o f activated sludge according to OECD guideline 209 in the version o f April 4,1984. The objectives of this study were to determine the: Effect o f the test substance, Telomer B 8-2 Alcohol, on microorganisms from municipal sewage sludge and Suitable non-inhibitory concentrations of the test substance to be used in biodegradability tests . using a microbial inoculum and an artificial sewage feed and measuring the respiration rate o f the test system over a 30 minute time period under controlled laboratory conditions. The purpose o f the study was to assess the potential of the test substance to adversely affect aerobic municipal sewage treatment plants. Test System Justification The test system is outlined by the OECD guideline 209 and was requested by the submitter. yip. T010574842 Page 8 o f 27 DuPont EMSE Report No. 18-02 Study Personnel E.

Aldrich Chemical Co., Inc. 1001 West St. Paul Milwaukee, W I53233 USA Test Vehicle The test substance was dissolved in a stock solution o f ethanol at 10000, 3000, 1000, 300, and 100 mg L'1. 3.2.1.4 Application Information The test substance was added to the test vessels at the following concentrations: 10000,3200, 1000,320 and 100 fig L'1. 3.2.2 Biolosical System Secondary activated sludge from Wilmington, DE USA Publically Owned Treatment Works (POTW) was used as the microbial inoculum. The activated sludge was aerated and used within 24 h o f collection. The sludge was washed as follows: first centrifuge the sludge for about 10 min at approximately 10,000 m s'2and discard the supernatant. Resuspend the sludge in tap water, remove this by recentrifuging, and then repeat twice more. An aliquot of the final sludge suspension was weighed, dried and the ratio o f wet sludge to its dry weight determined. Based on this ratio, calculated amounts o f wet sludge were suspended in tap water to yield a concentration equivalent to about 2 to 4 g per liter (on dry weight basis). T010574842 Page 11 o f 27 DuPont EMSE Report No. 18-02 3.2.3 3.2.3.1 3.2.3.2 Physical System Test Units All test vessels are 300-mL Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) glass bottles for incubation and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) determinations. Test Conditions Test solutions were kept closed and not aerated during a 30-minute incubation period at room temperature. 3.3 3.4 3.4.1 Test Conduct Sufficient microbial solution for all the test vessels except the negative control was made. The microbial solution contained 32 mL o f synthetic sewage feed, 400 mL microbial inoculum (containing 2 to 4 g dry weight/L), and about 568 mL tap water to make one L. The microbial solution was aerated at about 0.5 to 1 liter per minute until used. The test was initiated with the first positive control by adding 300 mL of the microbial solution to the test vessel and the test vessel stoppered. Aeration was stopped. The test vessels were continuously stirred using a stir bar and stir plate. After approximately 15 minutes (an arbitrary but convenient interval) the above procedure was repeated, except that the solvent was added to the test vessel at the concentration that was used with the test substance (first solvent control) and the was test initiated by adding 300 mL of the microbial solution to the test vessel. The test vessel was immediately capped. Again, after approximately 15 minutes this procedure was repeated, this time with a known amount of the reference substance with no solvent first added to the test vessel and the test initiated by adding 300 mL of the microbial solution to the test vessel and capping it. The procedure was repeated at approximately 15-minute intervals with the reference substance and then the test substance in solvent to give a series of test vessels containing different concentrations of the test substance. The negative control (sec. 12.7) test was performed next and then the second solvent control was performed. The final flask was a second positive control, prepared exactly as the first. The test was conducted so that the reference and test substances were bracketed by the two controls, for example: 1. first positive control 2. first solvent control 3. reference substance (no solvent) at 3 concentrations 4. test substance (with solvent) at 5 concentrations 5. negative (abiotic) control at highest concentration of test substance 6. second solvent 7. second positive control Parameters Observed Analysis o f Test Systems The respiration rate of a well-mixed sample of each treatment was determined after exactly 30 minutes incubation time with no further aeration from the beginning o f the 30-minute incubation period once the microbial solution had been added to the test vessel. The oxygen T0105 74842 Page 12 o f 27 DuPont EMSE Report No. 18-02 3.4.2 3.5 3.5.1 concentration was measured with an oxygen electrode and recorded over a period of about 10 minutes. During measurement, the samples were continuously stirred with the built-in stirrer and measurements recorded using the attached printer. The rate o f rate o f oxygen consumption (in mg 0 2L"1h'1) was determined from the most linear part o f the respiration curve over a period o f about 10 minute. The water temperature was measured in the positive control medium at the start and the end o f the incubation period. Analysis o f the Test Substance Stock Solutions Concentrations o f the test substance stock solutions were estimated by GC/MS.

Hold 10 minutes 1 pL splitless injection Electron Ionization selected ion monitoring, acquiring m/z of 31, 69, 95, 131, 463 Result Analysis Resviration Rate The respiration rate was calculated from the recorder output as mg O2 L '1h"1over a 10 min period. This can be done by graphing mg 0 2L'1on the y-axis and time in hours on the x-axis, drawing the line o f best fit, and then determining the slope of the line. The slope of the line is the extent to which the y-axis changes for 1 unit o f change in the x-axis. Alternatively, the respiration rate can be calculated as follows: f 2 > -(5 > x 5 > ) iy -OE 2 where b = Respiration Rate n = pairs o f x and y values x = time in hours y = mg 0 2L '1at time = x The portion of the respiration curve over which the respiration rate is measured should be linear. T0105 74842 Page 13 o f 27 DuPont EMSE Report No. 18-02 3.5.2 Inhibitory effect The inhibitory effects was determined by comparing the rates at each concentration of either test or reference substance to the rates in the controls. The results are expressed as percentage o f the mean value o f the respiration rates o f the two controls according to: 2Rs *100= Percent inhibition ^ e l + &c2 where Rs = oxygen consumption rate at tested concentration of test substance Rci = oxygen consumption rate o f positive control 1 Rc2= oxygen consumption rate o f positive control 2 The 30-minute EC50 (Effective Concentration of the substance giving a calculated or interpolated inhibition of oxygen consumption of 50% compared with a blank control) and their 95%-confidence limits are calculated by standard statistical methods. If possible, the EC2oand the EC8o also will be calculated and reported for the test substance. The percent inhibition is calculated at each test concentration as above. For the test substance, the percent inhibition is plotted against concentration as a log-normal (or log-probability) graph and an EC50 value derived from the graph. For the reference substance, the percent inhibition is plotted against concentration as a normal-normal graph and an EC50 value derived directly from the graph. 3.6 Validity Criteria o f the Study The test results are valid if: *1 The two positive control respiration rates (PCRR) and the two solvent control respiration rates are within 15 percent o f each other: The EC50(30 minutes) of 3,5-dichlorophenol is in the accepted range of 5 to 30 mg L'1, which is determined by graphing the percent inhibition on the y-axis and the concentration of the reference substance at which that level o f inhibition was measured ! on the x-axis. The EC50 can be determined directly from the graph. 3.7 Protocol Deviations The test systems were not maintained at a temperature o f 23 2C. This did not affect the test, however, because the validity criteria o f the test were met, as stated in section 3.6. 4.0 Results and Discussion EC50 o f the test substance at 30 min was greater than 10000 pg test substance per liter EC2oo f the test substance at 30 min was greater than 10000 pg test substance per liter ECg0 of the test substance at 30 min was greater than 10000 pg test substance per liter T010574842 Page 14 o f 27 DuPont EMSE Report No. 18-02 The test substance showed no acute toxic effect towards the microbial inoculum (activated sludge) at an oxygen consumption inhibition level > 2 0 % at the highest concentration of 10000 pg L' 1 that was tested. ECso o f the reference substance at 30 min was 12 mg reference substance per liter, which was within the acceptable range of from 5 to 30 mg L The two positive control respiration rates were within 40% of each other and not within 15% as required for a valid test. The test is valid, however, because the reference substance has an ECso of 12 mg L '1, which is within the acceptable range. Additionally, if the first positive control values is not used to calculate the respiration inhibition because of the low temperature at which it was studied, the EC50 o f the reference substance would be 19 mg L *, which is also within the acceptable range. All microbial inoculum was refrigerated overnight and was not allowed to completely warm to room temperature prior to the start o f the experiment. This resulted in the temperature o f the first positive control o f 15.0C, which was signficantly lower than the temperature o f the second positive control solution of 20.2C. On the other hand, the respiration rates o f the two solvent control solutions, which were used to calculate the respiration inhibition of the test substance, were within 9% of each other. This is less than 15% as required for a valid test. Temperatures in the positive control medium at the beginning and end o f the incubation period were 15.0 and 20.2C, respectively. ' The concentrations o f the test substance stock solutions were determined to be 10910, 3450, 1284,320, and 100 mg L' 1 (Table 2). This compares favorably to the target concentrations of 10000, 3000, 1000, 300, and 100 mg L '1, respectively, for test substance in the stock solutions. 5.0 Conclusions The EC5oof the test substance is estimated to be greater than 10000 pg L 1(10 mg L ') The EC50 of the reference substance is 12 mg L"1 The test is valid.
