_______ Notebook Kos. E2251**.E26238,27^32)_____
As requested in your letter of 9/22/31 to L. J. Papa, the 2h blood samples submitted then have been analyzed for perfluorooctanoate (Cg) by the usual gas chromatographic method ZS-567. Results and sample identification are giver, in the attached table.

(a) Analysis as described in Lab Method ES-567 ("Determination of Perfluorooctanoic Acid in Blood, Gas Chromatographic Method", S. Stafford, k/3/ol), using the packed column GC analysis vith perfluorc-n-octanoic acid as calibration standard.
(b) Although the analysis is specifically for perfluorooctanoate (acid or salts), concentrations are given in ppm fluorine for comparison vith the results of total organic fluorine analyses. (ppm F = 0.668 x ppm perfluorooctanoic acid) Estimated uncertainty is _+ 10a relative standard deviation. The lover lir.it for ouantitatioi: is 0.007 Pe^/g. The detection limit is **. 0.00** UgF/f, out concentrations in that range cannot be veil quantitated and are reported as < 0.007- Kone detected (n.d.) is reported for samples with [Cg] ^ 0.001* ppm, vhich cannot be distinguished from reagent background.
