Summary and Conclusions
The concentration o f ammonium perfluorooctanoate (APFO), measured as the perfluorooctanoate anion (PFOA), was determined in human serum samples collected during the Study DW04 using a selective, accurate, and reproducible analytical method developed byAdvion BioSciences, Inc., Ithaca, NY.
Human serum samples (0.025 xnL) were extracted by a liquid-liquid extraction procedure to isolate PFOA and the internal standard (9H-hexadecafluorononanoic add, 9H-HDFNA). Following reconstitution, sample extracts were analyzed by turbo ion spray liquid ctoomatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) in the negative ion mode.
A ll samples were successfully analyzed within one run. The lower limit o f quantitation was 0.05 pg/mL for PFO A The precision o f this assay (CV) as determined from the analysis o f quality control (QC) samples for PFOA was 4.11%.

1. IN TRO D U CTIO N
1.1. Study D escription and Objective
The objective o f this study was to determine die concentrations o f ammonium perfluorooctanoate (APFO), measured as the perfluorooctanoate anion (PFOA), in human serum sam ples collected during Study DW04. The study ID was generated by Advion BioSciences, Inc. (Advion) for internal tracking purposes. Human serum samples were analyzed using a selective liquid-liquid extraction, turbo ion spray liquid chromatography/ tandem m ass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) assay. The work described in this bioanalytical report was conducted in accordance with Advion standard operating procedures (SOP).
2. M ETH O D S
2.1. A nalytical P rocedure^)
PFOA concentrations were determined jh human serum according to the validated LC/MS/MS m ethod (1), Serum samples (0.025 mL) were extracted by a liquid-liquid extraction procedure to isolate the analyte and internal standard (IS) finm human serum. Following reconstitution, sample extracts were separated by reversed-phase chromatography on a 2 x 50 mm (5 pm) Betasil C column (ThermoHypersil-Keystone, Bellefonte, PA) w ith an initial mobile phase o f 45% Eluent B (90:10 methanol: 2 mM ammomum acetate) and 55% Eluent A (10:90 methanol:2 mM ammonium acetate). 9H-hexadeca0uorononanoic acid (9H-KDFNA) was used as the IS for PFOA. PFOA concentrations were determined by turbo ion spray liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) in the negative ion mode.
Following background subtraction (for calibration standards, QC samples, and zero samples), study sample concentrations were determined from a weighted (1/x2), quadratic regression o f peak area ratios (peak area o f PPQA/peak area o f 9H-HDFNA) versus nominal concentration ofnine calibration standards. The nominal concentrations o f the calibration standards were 0.05,0.1, 0.25, 0 .5 ,1 ,2 ,5 ,7 .5 and 10 fig/mL PFO A
The lqw er liirnt o f quantitation (LLQ) for this assay was 0.05 pg/mLPFOA. Quality control (QC) serum samples at three different concentrations (0.15,3, and 8 jig/m L PFOA) w ere analyzed in replicates o f three.
The acceptance criteria for calibration standards stipulated that at least three-fourths o f the calibration standards must remain on the calibration curve for each analytical run. Calibration standards may be rejected if they show deviations >15% from th en nominal concentration (20% at the LLQ).' The coefficient o f determination (r2) must be >0.98.
The acceptance criteria for the quality control samples stipulated that two-thirds o f the individual QC samples must be within 15% o fthe nominal concm tiation, and at least
Page 7 of 19

000140
one-half o f the replicates at each QC concentration must be w ithin 15% o fthe nominal concentration.
A summary o f the sample and assay information for Study DW 04 is given in Table 1. Trip blanks were prepared at Advion in advance o f the collection o f serum samples in this study. The trip blanks were prepared by adding control hum an serum to collection tubes. The purpose o f the trip blanks was as a precautionary means to m onitor fin potential contamination o f study samples during shipm ent
2.2. Assay Site
All samples were analyzed at Advion BioSciences, Inc., Ithaca, NY,
2.3. D ata Processing
The data were collected using turbo ion spray LC/MS/MS in the negative ion mode. Peak areas were integrated by the Applied BioSystems program MacQuan, version 1.6, residing on a Macintosh computer. Following peak area integration, the results tables to m MacQuan were saved as text files, which were used to perform background subtraction, using Excel 98, to correct for the presence o f PFOA in the control serum lots. Background-subtracted data were saved as MacQuan text files and uploaded to the Advion file server where a weighted (1/xz) quadratic regression was performed using the software package W atson (v 6.1.0.03, InnaPhase Corp., Philadelphia, PA). Concentration data were downloaded to m Watson with three significant figures!. Statistics were downloaded from Watson with three decimal places and rounded to three significant figures prior to reporting.
3. RESULTS
3.1. Assay Perform ance
The performance of the assay for PFOA as determined from the analysis o f QC samples is documented in Table 2. The intra-assay precision (CV) o f QC samples ranged from 3.14 to 4.11% for PFOA. There was no marked inaccuracy in the results from these Q samples; mean accuracy (RE) ranged from -10.7 to -6.33%.
The performance of daily calibration curves is documented in Table 3. There was no marked inaccuracy in the results from these standards; m ean accuracy ranged from -2.60 to 5.00%.

The slope, y-mtercept, and coefficient o f determination (r2) for the analytical run are presented in Table 4. The r2 value was 0.9958 for PFOA in human serum.
AD Advion personnel assigned to analyze samples for this project were required to successfully extract QC samples and calibration standards. Results o f the extraction were reviewed by a trained analyst against the pre-defined acceptance criteria for this assay. Results are maintained in the study records o f Advion.
Representative chromatograms from a PFOA control blank and zero sample are presented in Figures 1 and 2, respectively. Representative chromatograms from PFOA standards 1 and 9 are presented in Figures 3 and 4, respectively.
3.2. A nalytical R esults for Study DW04
PFOA concentrations in human serum from Study DW04 are presented in ta b le 5. A ll data were rounded to no less than three significant figures before reporting in Table 5. The two trip blanks are identified as subject numbers 98009 and 98010.
