SUMMARY
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential for H-24951, when administered by gavage, to be absorbed and to accumulate in a mammalian system. Two groups of 5 male Crl:CD(SD)IGSBR rats each were exposed to 1000 mg/kg/day of H-24951 for 10 consecutive days. Blood was collected from the orbital sinus of 5 rats (group I) approximately 2 hours after dosing on test days 1 and 5. Approximately 2 hours after the last dose, these rats were euthanized and blood, livers, and fat were collected. Blood was collected from the orbital sinus of the remaining 5 rats (group DI) on test days 13, 24, and 52. These rats were euthanized on test day 94 and blood, livers, and fat were collected. Body weights and clinical signs were recorded on each day of dosing and then weekly during the recovery period. Additionally, a negative control, deionized water, and 2 positive controls, H-24019 (10 mg/kg/day) and H-24020 (20 mg/kg/day), were tested as described for H-24951.
No deaths occurred. One rat dosed with the test substance, H-24951, exhibited nasal discharge
during the dosing period.
Comparison of body weights was complicated by the fact that there was a difference in age on test day 1 between the rats dosed with the test substance and those dosed with the positive controls or negative control. This difference resulted in differences in mean body weights on test day 1. Accounting for the age difference at study start and the expected rate of body weight gain, the mean body weights and mean body weight gains of the rats dosed with H-24951 were comparable to the negative control and equal to or greater than the positive controls.
The mean relative liver weight (liver/body weight) of rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951, was 29% higher at day 10 than the liver weight of the negative control rats. By day 94, the weights were similar. The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the positive control H-24019 was 38% higher at day 10 than the negative control group. The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the positive control H-24020 was 88% higher on day 10 than the negative control group. By day 94, the mean relative liver weights of rats dosed with H-24019 and H-24020 were similar to the negative control group.
A steady-state for fluorine levels in whole blood was not achieved during 10 consecutive days of dosing with 1000 mg/kg H-24951. An area under the curve (estimated to infinity) was calculated and normalized for fluorine content for the test substance and each positive control. The AUCDMF/D for the fluorine component of the test substance, H-24951, was 4.03xl02 compared to AUCINF/D values of 5.22xl05 and 8.15xl04 for H-24019 and H-24020, respectively.
The concentration of fluorine in the livers from rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951, was
19.85 jjtM equivalents on day 10 and 1.21 /iM equivalents on day 94. On day 10, mean /iM
equivalent concentrations of fluorine in the livers from rats dosed with the positive control materials were approximately 240-fold (H-24019) and 45-fold (H-24020) greater than the fluorine concentration in livers from rats treated with the test substance. By day 94, the

concentrations were approximately 1070x and 14x the fluorine concentration in rats treated with H-24951.
The fluorine concentration in the fat from rats dosed with the test substance was 20.94 /iM equivalents on day 10. On day 94, the concentration was 1.60 fiM equivalents. The fluorine
concentrations of the positive controls were approximately 9x or 3x higher than H-24951 on
day 10. By day 94, the pM equivalent concentration of fluorine in the fat from rats dosed with
the positive control H-24019 was approximately lOx higher than H-24951. There was no detectable fluorine by day 94 in the fat from rats dosed with H-24020.
The jiiM equivalents of fluorine in the liver and fat of animals dosed with the test substance were higher than levels in the blood.
Under the conditions of this study, there was minimal absorption and retention of fluorine in the blood in rats dosed with H-24951. Administration of the test substance to male rats for 10 consecutive days resulted in some absorption and retention of fluorine in the liver and fat. However, fluorine levels in blood and liver were significantly lower than levels in rats dosed with the positive control materials, H-24019 and H-24020. Some retention of fluorine in the fat was evident. Fluorine levels in fat from rats dosed with the test substance were lower than the levels in rats dosed with the positive control H-24019 and were slightly lower on day 10 than the levels in fat from rats dosed with the positive control H-24020, but higher on day 94. Liver weights were elevated in rats dosed with the test substance at the end of dosing but were similar to negative controls following the recovery period.

INTRODUCTION
The objective of this study was to define the potential of H-24951 to be absorbed and to bioaccumulate in a mammalian system, as indicated by analytical determination of total fluorine in blood, liver, and fat. The test substance was compared to 2 positive controls that were materials previously shown to bioaccumulate in mammals.
The daily dosage of 1000 mg/kg for the test substance was selected based on available toxicity data. The dosage of 1000 mg/kg was selected for the limit dosage for this project. The limit dosage of 1000 mg/kg was chosen for the study and was expected to produce less than a 10% difference in mean body weight over 10 days when compared to the negative control.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A.
Test Substance and Positive Controls
The test substance, H-24951, was supplied by the sponsor as a pale pink waxy solid. The positive controls, H-24019 and H-24020, were supplied by the sponsor as white solids. The test substance and positive controls appeared to be stable under the conditions of the study. No evidence of instability, such as a change in color or physical state, was observed.
B.
Test Species
Male Crl:CD(SD)IGS BR rats were received from Charles River Laboratories, Inc., Raleigh, North Carolina. The Crl:CD(SD)IGS BR rat was selected on the basis of extensive experience
with this strain and its suitability with respect to longevity, hardiness, sensitivity, and low
incidence of spontaneous diseases.
C. Animal Husbandry
1.
Housing Environment
Rats were housed singly in stainless steel, wire-mesh cages suspended above cage boards. Animal rooms were maintained on an approximate 12-hour light/dark cycle (fluorescent light) and at a temperature of 23 1C and a relative humidity of 50 10%.
2.
Feed and Water
Tap water was provided ad libitum. All rats were fed PMI Nutrition International, Inc. Certified Rodent LabDiet 5002 chow. The feed is guaranteed by the manufacturer to meet specified nutritional requirements and to be free of specified contaminants.

3.
Identification
___________________DuPont-6541
Each rat was assigned a unique identification number which was recorded on a card affixed to the cage. The last 3 digits of the number were tattooed on the tail of each rat.
4.
Animal Health Monitoring Program
As specified in the Haskell Laboratory animal health and environmental monitoring program, the following procedures are performed periodically to ensure that contaminant levels are below those that would be expected to impact the scientific integrity of the study:
Water samples are analyzed for total bacterial counts, and the presence of coliforms, lead,
and other contaminants.
Peed samples are analyzed for total bacterial, spore and fungal counts.
Samples from freshly washed cages and cage racks are analyzed to ensure adequate sanitation by the cagewashers.
Certified animal feed is used, guaranteed by the manufacturer to meet specified nutritional requirements and not to exceed stated maximum concentrations of key contaminants, including specified heavy metals, aflatoxin, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and organophosphates. The presence of these contaminants below the maximum concentration stated by the manufacturer would not be expected to impact the integrity of the study.
The animal health and environmental monitoring program is administered by the attending laboratory animal veterinarian. Evaluation of these data did not indicate any conditions that affected the validity of the study.
D.
Quarantine and Pretest
Upon arrival at Haskell Laboratory, the rats were removed from shipping cartons and quarantined for 6 days. The rats were weighed 3 times during the pretest period and examined daily for any clinically apparent signs of disease or injury. The rats were observed daily for mortality and signs of illness, injury, or abnormal behavior.
On the bases of acceptable body weight gains and freedom from clinically apparent signs of disease or injury, the rats were released from quarantine by the designee of the laboratory animal
veterinarian.

Assignment to Groups and Study Start
After the quarantine period, the rats were selected on the bases of adequate body weight gain and freedom from any clinical signs of disease or injury. The selected rats were arbitrarily assigned
to each group.
After assignment to groups, each rat was housed individually. The rats were 7or 8 weeks of age at the time of dosing. Dosing began on test day 1.
Rats that were not assigned to the study were released for other laboratory purposes, or were sacrificed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation and discarded without pathology evaluation.
G. Dosing Material Preparation and Administration
1.
Test Substance
H-24951 was heated in a 60-75C waterbath until liquefied and then stirred for at least 30 minutes until homogenous. The test substance was then aliquoted into 10 containers. On each day of dosing, one container was similarly heated and stirred.
The liquefied test substance was suspended in 0.5% aqueous methylcellulose. The amount of the suspension each rat received was based on the body weight collected on each day of dosing and the suspension concentration. The rats were dosed at a volume of 1 mL/100 g of body weight. The suspension was stirred on a magnetic stir plate at least 30 minutes before dosing and throughout the dosing procedure to maintain homogeneity.
2.
Positive Controls
It was necessary to dissolve H-24019 and H-24020 in acetone before suspending them in corn oil. The ratio of acetone to corn oil was 20:80. The amount each rat received was based on the body weight collected on each day of dosing and the suspension concentration. The rats were dosed at a volume of 1 mL/100 g of body weight. The dosing preparations were stirred on a magnetic stir plate throughout the dosing procedure to maintain homogeneity.

3.
Negative Controls
Deionized water was chosen as the negative control. The rats were dosed at a volume of 1 mL/100 g of body weight. These rats were dosed in a separate room from the rats dosed with the test substance or positive controls.
H. Body Weights All rats were weighed on each day of dosing and weekly during the recovery period.
I.
Mortality and Clinical Observations
Cage-site examinations to detect moribund or dead rats and abnormal behavior and appearance among rats were conducted at least once daily throughout the study. At every weighing, each rat was individually handled and examined for abnormal behavior and appearance.
J.
Collection and Analysis of Blood, Livers, and Fat
At time points selected for blood sampling other than sacrifice days, approximately 1 mL of blood was collected into EDTA tubes from the orbital sinus of each rat. Rats designated for sacrifice were euthanized by carbon dioxide anesthesia and exsanguination and blood, livers, and fat were collected according to the following schedules:

Sampling Time Test day 1 (2 hours post dosing) Test day 5 (2 hours post dosing) Test day 10 at sacrifice (2 hours post dosing) Test day 13 Test day 24 Test day 52 Test day 94
As much blood as possible was collected into EDTA tubes at sacrifice. The livers and fat were weighed. The fat weights were used only for the calculation of fluorine levels. The liver weights were used for the calculation of fluorine levels and for the calculation of liver weight relative to total body weight. The blood from all rats was refrigerated and the livers were frozen. The livers
and fat were appropriately packaged and shipped refrigerated to Jackson Laboratory, Deepwater, New Jersey where they were analyzed for total fluorine. The liver and fat samples remained frozen while shipped.
The total fluorine content of the samples was determined by using a Wickbold torch combustion method, followed by analysis with a fluoride ion selective electrode. The samples were decomposed or volatilized in the presence of wet oxygen and swept through an oxy-hydrogen

DuPont-6541
flame in a closed quartz apparatus. The combustion products were collected in an aqueous absorbing solution and analyzed with a fluoride ion selective electrode. Kinetic analysis of the data received (ppm F in each sample) was performed by Haskell Laboratory personnel for evaluation of fluorine biopersistence.
K. Treatment of Fluorine Data
Since the test substance and positive control materials had different toxicity profiles, it was not possible to administer a uniform mg/kg dose for all test materials. Properly conducted kinetic comparisons in situations with varied doses required the use of a normalized dose. The dosenormalization was conducted in /xmolar units to accommodate test material molecular weight differences and was adjusted to an arbitrary normalized dose of 0.1 mmoles/kg.
H-24019 and H-24020 were used as positive controls and a dosing diluent was used as the negative control. The percent of fluorine and molecular weight of the test substance and positive controls were used as provided by the sponsor. The measured total fluorine values were used as received (ppm F) from Jackson Laboratory. For the Wickbold torch method, the background fluorine level is 0.2 ppm. This is the limit of detection (LOD) of this method and was subtracted from each sample. The limit of quantification (LOQ) for this method is 0.5 ppm, and any values listed as less than 0.5 ppm were excluded from further treatment.
Since the dosages and molecular weight for positive controls and test material differed, the data were converted from a mass to a molar basis. In addition, the data were standardized to a single reference dose to allow comparison between compounds of differing fluorine content. The doses were first converted from a mg of test material basis to millimoles of fluorine. Raw fluoride ion data (ppm F) were then normalized to a 0.1 millimole dose of active component. Finally the molar dosage and normalized concentration were combined to yield the ^imolar (^.M) equivalents of active component in the tissue. Detailed calculations can be found in Appendix C. The j^M equivalents can be compared across compounds provided the considerations listed in Appendix C are observed.
Noncompartmental analysis was conducted on fluorine data derived from rats dosed with H-24951 and the positive controls using WinNonlin Version 3.1 software (Pharsight Corp, Mountain View, CA). WinNonlin software provided a means of computing derived
pharmacokinetic parameters from experimental data. All analysis was calculated using the ^M
equivalent in the data.
The maximum observed concentration in blood was Cmax (/xM equivalent). Biopersistence was assessed by quantifying terminal elimination blood half-life (Ti/4, days). The points included in determination of the Ti/, were selected manually and included only points after apparent log-linear elimination was achieved. Internal exposure was determined by calculating the blood areaunder-the-curve (AUC). AUC, which is simply the integral of blood concentration over time, is the most common means for expressing internal dose. With the calculated half-life, the AUC can
be extrapolated to infinity (AUCINF) to reflect the elimination of the compound. AUCINF

normalized to dose (AUCINF/D) can be used to compare the relative exposures of different
compounds and dosages.
L.
Statistical Methods
Descriptive statistics (e.g. mean, standard deviation) were used.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
A. In-Life Toxicology (Tables 1-2, Figure 1, Appendices A-B)
No deaths occurred. One rat dosed with the test substance, H-24951, exhibited black nasal discharge during the dosing period. Hair loss observed in one rat during the dosing period was considered spurious. A swollen mouth was observed during the dosing period in a negative control rat. One negative control rat exhibited black nasal discharge during the recovery period. A rat dosed with H-24019 exhibited red ocular discharge during the dosing period. Hair loss was observed in rats dosed with H-24019 and H-24020, and a wound was observed in a rat dosed with H-24020. Ocular discharge, dark eyes, comeal opacity, enophthalmus, and exophthalmus observed in several rats are considered a result of orbital sinus bleeding.
Comparison of body weights was complicated by the fact that there was a difference in age on test day 1 between the rats dosed with the test substance and those dosed with the positive controls or negative control. This difference resulted in differences in mean body weights on test day 1. The rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951, were older and heavier in weight than the positive and negative control rats. Accounting for the age difference at study start and the expected rate of body weight gain, the mean body weights and mean body weight gains of the rats dosed with H-24951 were comparable to the negative control and equal to or greater than the positive controls.
B.
Liver Weights
(Table 3, Figures 2, 3, and 7)
1.
Test Substance
The mean relative liver weight (liver/body weight) of rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951, was 29% higher at day 10 than the liver weight of the negative control group. The weights were similar by day 94.
2.
Positive Controls
The mean relative liver weights of rats dosed with one of the positive controls, H-24019, were similar on day 10 and day 94 to the liver weights of rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951.
The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the other positive control, H-24020, was 46% higher at day 10 than the liver weight of rats dosed with H-24951. By day 94, the weights were
similar.
The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24019 was 38% higher at day 10 than the negative control group. By day 94, the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24019
- 17- Company Sanitized. Does not contain TSCA CBI

was similar to the negative control group. The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24020 was 88% higher on day 10 than the negative control group. By day 94, the weights
were similar.
Therefore, the relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951, was elevated at the end of the 10-day dosing period. The mean relative liver weight by the end of recovery in rats dosed with the test substance was similar to the weights in rats dosed with the positive control materials, H-24019 and H-24020.
C. Fluorine Data (Tables 4-9, Figures 4-9, Appendices C-F)
1.
Factors Influencing Interpretation of Analysis
The data used in the kinetic analysis were derived from a limited screen, and therefore several caveats and considerations are important. A couple of considerations of particular importance are (1) a single dosage was used and kinetics may or may not be linear, (2) the kinetics apply only to blood, (3) steady-state may not have been achieved, and (4) the sample size is low and may impact calculation of the terminal half-life. A more complete list of considerations is shown in Appendix C.
2.
Positive Controls
The positive controls were H-24019 and H-24020. The H-24019 and H-24020 normalized pM
equivalents in rat blood continued to rise throughout the dosing period and may not have reached
steady-state (Figures 4A and 4B). The Cmax for H-24019 was 541.45 50.37 jiiM equivalents (Mean SD) with a terminal half-life of 42.2 days. The Cmax for H-24020 was 1043.08 54.57 /iM equivalents (Mean SD) with a terminal half-life of 15.1 days. For each of
the positive controls, blood was sampled at seven time points throughout the study, with only four of them occurring post-dose. The small sample size and analytical variability should be taken into account when using the derived terminal half-life for comparative purposes. The total internal exposure resulting from a normalized dose was described by AUCINF/D and was the
basis for comparison between positive controls and the test substance. The AUCINF/D for the
fluorine component was 5.22xl05 for H-24019 and 8.15xl04 for H-24020.
The concentrations of fluorine in the livers on day 10 from rats dosed with the positive control materials were 4802.15 and 866.67 jUM equivalents for H-24019 and H-24020, respectively. By day 94, the concentrations were 1292.92 and 17.10 jiiM equivalents.
The concentrations of fluorine in the fat on day 10 from rats dosed with the positive control
materials were 194.46 and 57.25 ^M equivalents for H-24019 and H-24020, respectively. By
day 94, the concentration of fluorine in the fat from rats dosed with H-24019 was 15.38 /xM equivalents. There was no detectable fluorine by day 94 in the fat from rats dosed with H-24020.

Test Substance
The H-24951 normalized fJtMequivalents in rat blood rose rapidly and did not reach steady-state
(Figure 4C). The Cmax for H-24951 was 1.43 0.20 pM equivalents (Mean SD) with a
terminal half-life of 46.1 days. Blood was sampled at seven time points throughout the study, with only four of them occurring post-dose. The small sample size and analytical variability
should be taken into account when using the derived terminal half-life for comparative purposes. The total internal exposure resulting from a normalized dose was described by AUCINF/D and
was the basis for comparison between H-24951 and the positive controls. The AUCINF/D for the fluorine component of H-24951 was 4.03 xl02 as compared to AUCINF/D values of 5.22xl05 and 8.15xl04 for H-24019 and H-24020, respectively.
Levels of total fluorine in livers from rats dosed with the test substance, H-24951, were lower than the levels in livers from rats dosed with the positive control materials. The total fluorine concentration in the liver from rats dosed with H-24951 was 19.85 /xM equivalents at day 10 and
1.21 /iM equivalents at day 94. For the positive control H-24019, the liver concentrations were
approximately 240x higher (day 10) and approximately 1070x higher (end of study) than H-24951. For H-24020, the liver concentrations were approximately 45x higher (end of dosing) and 14x higher (end of study) than H-24951.
Levels of total fluorine in fat from rats dosed with the test substance were generally lower than the levels in fat from rats dosed with the positive control materials. The fluorine concentration in the fat from rats dosed with the test substance was 20.94 /iM equivalents on day 10 and 1.60 /xM equivalents on day 94. The fluorine concentration in the fat from rats dosed with the positive
controls were approximately 9x or 3x higher than H-24951 on day 10. By day 94, the /iM
equivalent concentration of fluorine in the fat from rats dosed with the positive control H-24019 was approximately lOx higher than H-24951. There was no detectable fluorine by day 94 in the fat from rats dosed with H-24020.
The ^M equivalents of fluorine in the liver and fat of animals dosed with the test substance were
higher than levels in the blood.
CONCLUSIONS
Rats dosed for 10 consecutive days with 1000 mg/kg H-24951 exhibited no mortality or body weight effects. Clinical signs were observed, and liver weights were elevated at the end of dosing in rats dosed with the test substance. A steady-state for fluorine in the blood was not achieved during the 10-day dosing period with the test substance. Dose-adjusted areas under the curve (AUCINF/D) for positive controls, H-24019 and H-24020, were approximately 1300x and 200x the AUCINF/D for the test substance.
Under the conditions of this study, there was minimal absorption and retention of fluorine in the
blood following dosing with H-24951. Administration of the test substance, H-24951, to male
rats for 10 consecutive days resulted in some absorption and retention of fluorine in the liver and
k)
fat. However, levels in blood and liver in rats dosed with H-24951 were significantly lower than

the fluorine levels in rats dosed with the positive control materials, H-24019 and H-24020. Some retention of fluorine in the fat was evident. Fluorine levels in fat were significantly lower than levels in rats dosed with the positive control material H-24019 and were slightly lower on day 10 than the levels in fat from rats dosed with the positive control H-24020, but higher on day 94.

TERMS AND CALCULATIONS
Fluorine containing compound The % of formulation that is made up of fluorine containing components The molecular weight of the fluorine containing components (g/mole) The mg of formulation given per kg of animal body weight The % fluorine in the fluorine containing components of the formulation (weight basis) The molecular weight of fluorine g/mol
Compound Calculations:
Dose Active (mg/kg)
The mg of fluorine containing compound administered per kg of animal body weight.
= (% active/100) x Formulation Dose
Dose Active (mmole/kg)
The mmole of fluorine containing compound administered per kg of animal body weight
= dose [mg/kg] / Mol Wt Active [mg/mmol]
Dose F (mg/kg)
The mg Fluorine administered per kg of animal body weight = (% F in active/100) x Dose Active [mg/kg]
Dose F (mmol/kg)
The mmole of fluorine administered per kg of animal body weight = Dose F [mg/kg] / Mol Wt P [mg/mmol]
Molar Ratio (Active/F)
The moles of fluorine containing compound per mole of fluorine = Dose Active [mmol/kg] / Dose F [mmol/kg]
Formulation Dose Normalization Factor
The formulation dose that would be required to administer the amount of active needed to achieve the normalized dose
= (Normalized dose of Active [mmol/kg] / Dose Active [mmol/kg]) x Formulation Dose

TERMS AND CALCULATIONS
Individual Animal Measurement:
ppmF
The ppm fluoride measured
Individual Animal Calculations:
ppm F minus Bkg 0.2 ppm
ppmF
normalized to 0.1 mmol/kgDose
The ppm fluoride measured minus the background fluoride measured in control animal. In this case the value was established at 0.2 ppm.
The ppm fluoride minus background that would be expected if the active dose was 0.1 mmol/kg instead of the actual active dose. This
assumes linearity between administered dose and blood fluorine levels, but is needed because different doses of active were used in the study.
= (0.1 [mmol/kg] / Active dose [mmol/kg]) x (ppm F in blood
minus background)
/zmolar equivalents of active
The /xmolar [^mol/L] concentration of fluorine containing compound
based on the ppm fluorine normalized to 0.1 mmol/kg active dose. This assumes that all fluorine is derived from the fluorine-containing component in the formulation. Note: 1 ppm - 1 mg/L
= (Normalized ppm [mg/L] fluorine / Mol Wt F [mg/mmol]) x molar ratio active/F [mmol active/mmol F] x 1000 ^moVmmol

FACTORS INFLUENCING INTERPRETATION OF KINETIC ANALYSIS
Considerations:
- The data used for kinetic analysis was from a limited screen and extrapolation should be done cautiously.
- Sample size is low - Analytical data used without validation - Steady-state not reached - Terminal phase may not be reached - Some compounds are mixtures of fluorinated compounds - Different active and formulation doses were used - Different vehicles were used to deliver formulations - Each compound may have very different potency for producing toxicity
Assumptions: (May or may not be justified in all cases)
- Fluorine concentrations are linear with respect to dose - Analytical method is appropriate for all types of compounds - Elimination kinetics can be determined based on total fluorine rather than on concentrations of
individual components - Background Fluorine is 0.2 ppm - % F data is the % Fluorine of the active (Fluorine containing component(s) in the formulation) - Molecular weight is the molecular weight of the active component in the formulation
