SUMMARY
The acute toxicity ofH-24215 to unfed fingerling rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, was
determined in an unaerated, 96-hour, static test in accordance with the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) Guideline for Testing Chemicals: 203; the
European Economic Community 92/69 Annex V - Method C.I; and the United States
Environmental Protection Agency, Pesticide Assessment Guidelines Subdivision E, 72-1.
The study was conducted with 5 concentrations ofH-24215 and a dilution water control at a mean temperature of 11.8C (range of 11.6-12.1C). Test solutions were not renewed during the 96-hour exposure. Two replicate test chambers were used per test concentration with 10 fish in each chamber (20 fish per concentration). Fish in the water control averaged 2.8 cm in standard length and 0.21 g in wet weight, blotted dry, at test end.
Exposure of rainbow trout to mean, measured H-24215 concentrations of 554,1090,2280,4560, and 9360 mg/L resulted in 0,0,0,75, and 100% mortality, respectively, at the end of 96 hours. Mean, measured concentrations ranged from 87 to 94% of the nominal concentrations. No mortality or sublethal effects were seen in the water control fish. The highest mean, measured concentration causing no mortality at test end was 2280 mg/L. The lowest mean, measured concentration causing 100% mortality at test end was 9360 mg/L. Surviving fish exposed to 4560 mg/L exhibited effects such as swimming at the surface, labored respiration, dark
coloration, lethargy, and erratic swimming. There were no mortality or sublethal effects below 4560 mg/L. Mean, measured H-24215 concentrations were used for calculation ofLCso values.
Since H-24215 rsa 20% solution ofQIHBlin water, results are also expressed in terms of mean
measuredy|M||foncentrations.
The results are summarized as follows:

INTRODUCTION
The objective of this study was to assess the acute toxicity ofH-24215 to unfed fingerling rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, during an unaerated, static, 96-hour test.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A.
Test Substance
The test substance, H-24215, was supplied as a light coloredjiqu^ The test substance contains
99.4% H-24215 by analysis. H-24215 is a 20% solution ofJ|BB|^Ammonium
perfluorooctanoate) in water.
B.
Test Solution Preparation
Test substance solutions were prepared by direct addition of H-24215 to dilution water. All test
solutions, including the water control, were stirred for 30 minutes prior to use. Test substance solutions were clear and colorless and there was no insoluble material present.
C.
Dilution Water
;;*iyA
Dilution water'^riginatedfrom the Haskell Laboratory well which is 378-feet deep and is cased
and sealed into bedrock to prevent contamination. The hardness of the well water is adjusted to
approximately 110-140 mg/L as CaCOa by the flow-proportioned addition ofCaCh. The well
water is then aerated, passed through a green sand filter to remove iron, and filtered through 50-,
10-, and 5-fJi.m filters to remove particulates. The water is heated or chilled as appropriate and
distributed through aged polyvinyl chloride piping. The dilution water is analyzed twice yearly
for major anions and cations, metals, total organochlorine and organophosphate pesticides, and
polychlorinated biphenyls (Table 1). The dilution water meets OECD05 and ASTM^ criteria and
specifications.

D.
Test Organism Culture
Rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, were purchased from Thomas Fish Company, Anderson, California. The fish were held in a 272-L, circular, fiberglass holding tank (84-cm diameter, 49cm deep) for 25 days in continuously-flowing well water at Haskell Laboratory. During the
7-day period preceding the test, water temperatures ranged from 10.3 to 13.2C (mean 12.1C).
The fish were fed freshly-hatched, live brine shrimp (Prime Artemia me., Midvale, Utah) and AquaMax Starter Fingerling 300 5D03 (PMI Nutrition International, Inc.) twice daily on
weekdays and once daily on weekends and holidays. Sickness, injury, and abnormalities were

not present in fish in the holding tank nor in the fish used for testing. No mortality was seen during the 48 hours prior to use for testing. Fish were identified by labels on the holding tanks
and test chambers.
E.
Test Methods^'4^
Five nominal concentrations, and a dilution water control were used in this study. Nominal concentrations ofH-24215 of 625, 1250,2500, 5000, and 10,000 were chosen for the definitive test based on the results of a preliminary rangefinding study (see Results and Discussion). The dilution water control contained no solvent.
Test chambers were stainless steel aquaria [30 (length) x 14.5 (width) x 30 (height) cm] which held approximately 9 L of test solution (13-L maximum volume; 21.5-cm test solution depth). Two replicate test chambers were used per test concentration with 10 fish in each chamber (20 fish per concentration). Each chamber was covered with a glass plate to prevent fish from
escaping. Random numbers were used to assign test concentrations to the test chambers and
position of test concentrations in the water bath.
Rainbow trout used in this study were not fed approximately 29 hours prior to nor during the test, and were assigned to the test chambers using random numbers. Addition offish to the test solutions was initiated approximately 41 minutes after mixing of the test solutions was completed. Mortality and behavioral observations were made at test start, every 24 hours thereafter, and at test end. Dead fish were removed from the test chambers when observed.
Criteria for death were the absence ofopercular movement and lack of reaction to gentle
prodding. At test conclusion, all surviving fish were humanely sacrificed using MS222.
A recirculating water bath was used to maintain mean temperature in the test chambers during the 96-hour test at approximately 11.8C with a range of 11.6 to 12.1 C (Table 6). In addition, a
continuously-recording thermometer was used to check for temperature variation in 1 replicate of the dilution water control. A photoperiod of 16 hours light (approximately
199-450 Lux) and 8 hours darkness was employed which included 30 minutes of transitional
light (11-157 Lux) preceding and following the 16-hour light interval.
Dissolved oxygen, pH, and temperature were measured in all replicate chambers of the control
and test substance concentrations. These measurements were taken before fish were added at test start, every 24 hours'thereafter, and at test end or at total mortality in a concentration. Total
alkalinity, EDTA hardness, and conductivity of the water were measured before fish were added at the beginning of the test. Test solutions were not aerated during the test.

Sample Preparation and Chemical Analysis
1.
Sample Collection and Treatment
One sample plus a back-up sample of each test solution were received from each replicate test chamber including the controls on Day 0 of the definitive study. One unscheduled sample plus a
-11- Como-snv Sanm;:"!-. c"^"^'"" ^w^" TSCA C&7
back-up sample for A and B replicates was also received on Day 1 because of the total mortality in the 10,000 mg/L nominal test concentration. On Day 4, one sample plus a back-up sample of
each test solution, except the 10,000 mg/L, were received from each replicate test chamber including the controls.
Concentrations ofH-24215 were measured directly by high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). All scheduled samples were analyzed on the day of receipt. The Day 1 samples were stored refrigerated till Day 4. The Day 1 samples were analyzed on Day 4 together with the Day 4 samples.

Quantitation
The test substance, H-24215, was used as the reference standard. A stock solution of the reference standard, H-24215 was made in HLWW with a target concentration of 5000 mg/L. The calibration standards were prepared on each test day by diluting the H-24215 stock with HLWW to target 50 mg/L level. The 50 mg/L stock was used to obtain calibration standards by dilution with HLWW with concentrations ranging from 1.25 to 5 mg/L. Duplicate injections of test and calibration standard solutions were made and peak heights and areas were determined by
electronic integration.
The calibration curve was generated by regression analysis of the peak height or peak area data from chromatography of the calibration solutions. A typical calibration curve is shown in Figure

1. Data for test solutions were compared to the working curve to determine concentrations of H-24215. Representative chromatograms of a calibration standard solution, a test solution and a
control solution are presented in Figures 2 to 4, respectively.
The limit ofquantitation (LOQ) and limit of detection (LOD) were determined by calculating the signal to noise (S/N) ratios for selected chromatograms. Four chromatograms were examined for the S/N ratio. The LOD was calculated as the concentration equivalent to S/N ratio equal 3. The LOD was calculated as the concentration equivalent to S/N ratio equal 10.
G.
Statistical Analysis
The 96-hour LCso and 95% confidence interval was calculated by the moving average-angle method^ based on mean, measured H-24215 concentrations. The highest mean, measured concentration causing no mortality at test end and the lowest mean, measured concentration causing 100% mortality at test end were assessed by visual observation,

Test Solution Results
Mean, measured values of H-24215 ranged from 87 to 94 % of the targeted nominal concentrations (Table 2).
All measured values of H-24215 were within 1.5 times the lowest value for all replicates within a
concentration. These data indicate that H-24215 concentrations were maintained at acceptable levels throughout the definitive test.
Control solutions showed no detectable concentrations of H-24215.

Rangefinding Study
A static, rangefinding study with 5 fish per concentration was conducted using a dilution water
control and nominal concentrations of 50,100, 500, 1000, and 5000 mg/L. At the end of
96 hours, the respective mortality values were 0, 0,0,0,0 and 60%. Test substance solutions
were clear and colorless with no material present during the test.
2.
Definitive Study
Nominal concentrations of H-24215 for the definitive study were 625,1250,2500,5000, and 10,000 mg/L (10 fish per replicate, 2 replicate chambers per concentration). A dilution water control was used in this study. Mean, measured concentrations of H-24215 were 554,1090, 2280,4560, and 9360 mg/L, respectively. Control solutions showed no detectable concentrations of H-24215. All test substance solutions were clear and colorless with no insoluble material
present during the test.
Dilution water quality was acceptable based on OECD^ and ASTM^ criteria, and no quantifiable concentrations of pollutants and pesticides were present in the most recent semi
annual dilution water analysis (Table 1). All chemical and physical parameters for the definitive
test (Tables 3-6) were within expected ranges. Total alkalinity, EDTA hardness, and
conductivity of the dilution water control were 49 mg/L CaCOa, 122 mg/L CaC03,
240 /xmhos/cm, respectively. During the test, dissolved oxygen concentrations ranged from 7.5

to 11.2 mg/L, pH ranged from 7.1 to 7.2, and mean temperature was 11.8C with a range of 11.6 tol2.1C. At test conclusion, fish from the water control ranged from 2.5 to 3.2 cm in standard length (mean 2.8 cm) and 0.15 to 0.30 g in wet weight, blotted dry (mean 0.21 g). Standard length of the longest fish was not more than twice the length of the shortest fish in the control. Loading in the water control was 0.23 g/L at test conclusion. Data on daily mortality and sublethal effects are presented in Tables 7 and 8, respectively. No
mortality or sublethal effects were seen in the dilution water control fish. Surviving exposed to a
mean, measured H-24215 concentration of 4560 mg/L exhibited sublethal effects such as swimming at the surface, labored respiration, dark coloration, lethargy, and erratic swimming. There were no mortality or sublethal effects below 4560 mg/L. The highest mean, measured concentration causing no mortality at test end was 2280 mg/L. The lowest mean, measured
concentration causing 100% mortality at test end was 9360 mg/L.
A summary of the LC5o values and 95% confidence interval at specific time intervals is presented
in Table 9. The 96-hour LCso, based on mean, measured H-24215 concentrations, was
efMBHp 4001 mg/L with 95% confidence interval of 3327 to 4932 mg/L. Since H-24215 isa20%-,

" The test substance (H-24215) is a 20 % solution OQ----IP water.
b Mean, measured concentration was calculated as [(Day 0^+Day Oe)/2 + (Day 4A + Day 4B)/2]/2. Day 0 and Day 1 results were used to calculate the mean measured concentration for 10,000 mg/L dose level.
c Based on nominal H-24215 concentrations. d ND denotes none detected. The limit of detection for H-24215 was 1.6/tg/L.
c Total mortality was observed on Day 1. The concentrations of H-24215 in the samples submitted on Day 1 were
8470 mg/L and 8070 mg/L for replicates A and B, respectively.
