ACUTE TOXICITY TO AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES (DAPHNIA MAGNA)
TEST SUBSTANCE
ldenfity:A mixturecontainingperfluorooetanesulfonawthei,ch may alsobe referredtoas PFOS, FC-95, oras a component ofFC-203CE. (1Octanesulfoniaccid)(CAS # 2795-39-3).
Remarks: The 3M productonlotnumber was 519. The testsample isFC203CE (2/21/89)C.urrentinformatioinndicateistisa mixtureof 1.84% PFOS, 30% diethyleneglycolbutylether,60.23% water,2.56% Sultone foarner,3.1% sodium octylsulfate2,.1% polyoxyethylenemonooetylphenyl ether,0.12% sodium laurylsulfatea,nd 0.05% tolyltdazole.
The followingsummary appliesto a mixture with incompletely characterizeccloncentrationsof impudties. Data may not accurately mflectthe toxicityof the fluorochemicalcomponent of the testsample.
METHOD:

Analyticalmonitoring: Temperature,pH, and DO
Exposure period: 48-hours
Test organism age: <24 hours old
Statisticamlethod: Not given.
Test conditions:
Dilutionwater: Carbon-filterweedllwater
Dilutionwater chemistry:
Temperature: 20 OC
D.O.:
9.6 mg/L

8.0
Lighting: Not given.
Stock and testsolution preparation: The testmaterialwas added directly
tothe dilutiownater on a weight/volurnbeasis.
Concentration dosing rate:Daily
Exposure vessels: 250 mL Pyrex glassbeakers containing200 mL oftest
solutionand a water depth of6 cm.
Number of replicates:2
Number of daphnids per replicate:10
Number of concentrations: one plusa blankcontrol
Water chemistry during the study:
pH range (0-48hours):
8.0- 8.2(controelxposure) 7.9- 8.1(1000mg/L exposure) Temperature range (0-48 hours): 21 *C Dissolved oxygen range (0-48 hours): 8.5 - 9.6 mg/L (controlexposure) 6.8 - 9.6 mg/L (1000 mg/L exposure
RESULTS
Nominal concentrations: Bk controland 1000 rng/L
Element values: 48-hour EC50 = >1,000 mg/L
Element values based on nominal concentrations
Remarks: Testingwas conducted on a mixtureas describedinthe Test Substance Remarks field.The values reportedapplytothatmixtureand not the fluorochemicalproportionalone.
CONCLUSIONS
The testsubstance 48-hour EC50 was determined to be >1000 rng/L.
