ACUTE TOXICTTY TO FISH (FATHEAD MINNOW)
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:A mixturecontainingperfluorooctanesulfonatweh,ich may alsobe referredtoas PFOS, FC-95, oras a component ofFC-3041. (1Octanesulfoniaccid)(CAS # 2795-39-3).
Remarks: The 3M productionlotnumber was 2300. The testsample isFC3041 (cc809-1).Currentinformatioinndicatesitisa mixtureof6% PFOS, 36% diethyleneglycolbutylether,36.05% water,12% Sultonefoanier,9% sodium octylsulfate0,.55% sodium laurylsulfatea,nd 0.4% tolyltriazole.
The followingsummary appliesto a mixture with incompletely characterizecfconcentrations of impurities.Data may not accurately reflect the toxicityof the tluorochomical component of the testsample.
METHOD:
Method: Not given.
Type: Acute static
GLP: No
Year completed: 1981
Species: Pimephalespromelas
Supplier:ComniercialsupplierB,rady,NE.
Analyticalmonitoring: Temperature,pH, and DO.
Exposure period: 96-hours
Statisticmaelthods: LC5ovaluescalculatebdy moving averageanglemethod.
Test fishage: Juveniles
Length and weight: Average length 41 mm
Average weight 0.49g (wet)
Loading: 0.61g/L
Pretreatment: None
Test conditions:
Dilutionwater: Carbon-filterewdellwater,St.Paul,MN
Dilutionwater chemistry:
Hardness:
253 mg/L as CaC03
Alkalinity: 221 mg/L as CaC03
Lighting: Not given. Stock and testsolutionpreparation: The testmaterialwas added directltyo the dilutiownater on a weighvvolume basis. Concentrations dosing rate:Once. Stabilityof the testchemical solutions: Not noted. Exposure vessels: AJI-glastsanks(35x2Ox25 cm) containing16 L oftest solutions. Number of replicates:2 Number of fish per replicate:20. Number of concentrations: fiveplusa blank control
Waterchemistryduringthestudy: pH range (0-96houm): 7.9- 8.1(controelxposure) 7.8- 8.1(320 mg/L exposure)* Temperature range (0-96houm): 18 - 19 *C Dissolved oxygen range (0-96houm): 5.0- 9.2mg/L (controelxposure) 0.2 - 9.2 nig/L(320 mg/L exposure)* 320 nig/L(second highestconcentrabon)exposure values used because the highestconcentrationused resultedintotalmortalityby 48 hours.
RESULTS
Nominal concentrations: Blank control,87, 135, 210, 320, and 490 mg/L
Element values: 96-hour LCw = 240 (217 - 265) mg/L
Element values based on nominal concentrations
Remarks: Testingwas conducted on a mixtureas described inthe Test Substance Remarks field.The values reportedapplyto thatmixtureand not the fluorochemicalproportionalone.
CONCLUSIONS
The testsample 96-hour LC50 forfathead minnow was determined to be 240 mg/L witha 95% confidence intervalof217 to 265 mg/L.
