This study was conducted in compliance with United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) regulations 21 CFR Part 58, with the exceptions in the bulleted list below. Exceptions to GLP compliance:
0 There were two study directors in this study. This study was designed as two separate studies. The in-life phase was considered to end after teratological examination and shipment of specimens. The analytical study was considered to start at the receipt of these specimens for analysis. This resulted in having two separate study directors, one for each phase of the same study. However, since the technical performance of each phase was entirely separate, no effect is expected from this exception.
0 Stability not determined for test and control articles under all conditions of administration.
0 Characterizations of all analytical reference materials have not been completed at this time. An amendment to this report will be issued when characterizations have been completed for all reference materials with the exception of PFOSEA. A characterization of PFOSEA will not be completed as all the material was consumed during the analytical phase of the study.
0 There were no expiration dates on the reagentlsolutions bottle per 21 CFR Part 58.83.
0 The electronic data systems have not been validated and there is not an electronic audit trail of corrections currently available (21 CFR Part 58.130 (e)). Hardcopies of chromatograms will be Considered as the original raw data.

Introduction and Purpose
Analytical Report: FACT TOX-097 LRN-U2452
The purpose of the analytical study is to provide semi-quantitative or qualitative determination of PFOS, PFOSA, PFOSAA, PFOSEA and N-EtFOSE in sera samples and liver samples collected from pregnant rabbits exposed orally to N-EtFOSE. The study was initiated on 18 September 1998.
lest System
The test system were timed-pregnant female New Zealand White [Hra: (NZW)SPF] Rabbits received from Covance Research Products Inc. The individual body weights of the female rabbits
ranged from 2.9to 4.2kg;the rabbits were approximately five to six months of age at the time of study assignment (Argus Study ##418-010).
Table 1 summarizes the number of female rabbits in each group. Group I consisted of control female rabbits that were administered 0.0 mg/kg/day in 2%)Tween@80 (vehicle). Group II through
Group V female rabbits were administered 0.1, 1 .O,2.5,or 3.75mg of N-EtFOSE per kg of body weightlday in 2% Tween@80.Serum and liver samples were collected on day 21 of presumed
gestation. Additionally, female rabbits were Caesarean-sectioned and pooled fetal tissue(s) taken from the rabbits. Details of the in-life phase of the study arie presented in the Argus Laboratory final report, "Oral (Stomach Tube) Developmental Toxicity Study of N-EtFOSE in Rabbits, M18010."

Specimen Collection and Analysis
In the analytical study reported here, 19 liver specimens, 19 sera specimens and 19 pooled fetal tissues were collected from 19 presumed pregnant female rabbits at the end of the in-life phase of Argus Study M18-010 and sent to the 3M Environmental Laboratory to be extracted and analyzed for perfluorooctanesulfonate(PFOS), perfluorooctanesulfonamide (PFOSA), perfluorooctanesulfonamido(ethy1)acetate(PFOSAA), N-ethyl perfluorooctanesulfonamidoethyl alcohol (N-EtFOSE), and perfluorooctanesulfonylethylamide (PFOSEA). Only non-quantitative screening data is provided for PFOSAA and N-EtFOSE determination in liver and sera samples.
Blood specimens were centrifuged within one hour of collection. Serum was then harvested and stored in a freezer set to maintain specimens at -70" until shipped to the 3M Environmental Laboratory. Liver specimens collected from each animal were flash frozen in liquid nitrogen then stored in a freezer set to maintain specimens at -70C until shipped to the 3M Environmental Laboratory. Pooled fetal tissues (per litter, fetuses and placenta) were collected then stored in a freezer set to maintain specimens at -70C until shipped to the 3M Environmental Laboratory. (Note: Although fetal and placenta tissues were collected at the same time as liver and serum, results from these analyses will not be included in this report. A separate report may be issued for fetal tissue data.)
Sera and liver samples were extracted beginning on 16 October 1998. Liver samples were homogenized prior to the extraction procedure. Sample extracts were analyzed beginning 17 October 1998 using high-pressure liquid chromatography-electrospray/tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ES/MS/MS) in the multiple reaction monitoring. Analytical details are included in this report.
Specimen Receipt and Maintenance
The 3M Environmental Laboratory received serum, liver, fetuses and placenta specimens for the in-life phase of this study FACT TOX-097 on 23 September 1998 from Argus Research Laboratories. All specimens were received frozen on dry ice and were immediately transferred to storage at -20C fl0"C.
Control matrices used in liver and sera analyses performed during TOX-097 were obtained from commercial sources and are presented in Appendix A (see Table 5). Samples analyzed at the 3M
Environmental Laboratory will be maintained for a maximurn period of 10 years and will be stored
at the laboratory at -20C *lOC.

Method Summaries
Analytical Report: FACT TOX-097 LRN-U2452
Following is a brief description of the methods used during this analytical study by the 3M Environmental Laboratory. Copies of the methods used in this study are located in Appendix C.
As the present study progressed, more advanced methods evolved and earlier methods listed in the protocol were not used. It was determined that applying a 1/X weighting to the curve improved the method accuracy at the low end of the curve. The original data sets were reworked utilizing the improved practice. These changes only improved the effectiveness of the method. Amendments to the protocol were written to cover method changes. A copy of protocol amendments and method deviations are presented in Appendix B (Table 6) of this report.

Data Summary, Analyses, and Results
Analytical Report: FACT TOX-097 LRN-U2452
Summary of Quality Control Analyses Results
0 Linearity: The coefficient of determination (rz)of the extracted standard curve was 20.980 except for the determination of PFOSAA. Acceptable curves could not be derived from the analysis of some data sets. All PFOSAA data should be regarded as non-qualitative screening data only.
0 Calibration Standards: Quantitation of the compounds was based on linear regression analysis (l/x weighted) of a single or of two extracted matrix curves bracketing each group of samples. High or low points on the curve may have been deactivated to provide a better linear fit over the curve range most appropriate to the data. Low curve points with peak areas less than two times that of the extraction blanks were deactivated to disqualify a data range that may have been significantly affected by background levels of the analyte. Occasionally, a single mid-range curve point that was an obvious outlier may have been deactivated. Quantitation of the compounds was based on the response of one specific product ion using the multiple reaction monitoring mode of the instrument (see Appendix C, Analytical Methods).
0 Limits of Quantitation (LOQ): The LOQ is equal to the lowest acceptable standard in the calibration curve (defined as a standard within k30% of the theoretical value), and is at least two times the analyte peak area detected in the extraction blanks.
0 Blanks: All blanks were below the lower limit of quantitation for the compounds of interest, except as noted in Appendix B (see table 6).
0 Precision: Precision was not specifically determined within this study, but has been characterized to be better than *30% for this method.
0 Matrix Spikes: Matrix spikes and matrix spike duplicates were extracted with each set of samples and analyzed during analytical runs at the 3M Environmental Laboratory. Rabbit sera and liver from control animals were spiked prior to extraction. All target analytes were spiked approximatelt 250 ng/mL or 250 ng/g.
Sera spikes for PFOS, PFOSA, PFOSAA, and PFOSEA were within &30% of expected values. Spike recoveries studies for N-EtFOSE were dramatically higher than expected, with an average recovery of 196%. The N-EtFOSE data shall be regarded as non-qualitative screening data only.
Liver spikes for PFOS, PFOSA, PFOSAA, and PFOSEA were within &30% of expected values. Spike recoveries studies for N-EtFOSE were within *50%. The N-EtFOSE data shall be regarded as non-qualitative screening data only.
0 Surrogates: The surrogate (THPFOS) was added to all samples and standards prior to extraction. THPFOS was not used for quantitation, but was used to monitor for gross instrument failure. The surrogate response of each analytical run was monitored to determine
that it did not vary more than *50% from the mean within each analytical run. No problems
were observed with these data.

Statement of Data Quality
It is not possible to verify true recovery of endogenous anailyte from tissues without radio labeled reference material. The only measurement of accuracy available at this time, matrix spike studies, indicates the data are quantitative to k30% or greater with the exception of PFOSAA and N-EtFOSE. The PFOSAA and N-EtFOSE data shall be regarded as non-qualitative screening data only.
Summary of Sample Results
Samples from Dosed Animals: In general, PFOS, PFOSA, PFOSAA and N-EtFOSE levels found in the sera and liver of the test animals increased with dose group. PFOSEA was not detected in sera or liver samples of dosed animals. Detailed sample data tables are presented in Appendices D and E.
Statistical Methods and Calculations
Statistical methods were limited to the calculation of means and standard deviations. See Appendix F for example calculations used to generate the liver and serum sample data in FACTTOX-097.
Statement of Conclusion
Under the conditions of the present studies, PFOS, PFOSA, PFOSAA and N-EtFOSE were observed in the sera and liver of rabbits dosed with the N-EitFOSE during the in-life phase of the study.

4.0 - EWEIUMENTAOLverview
Tissues from animals dosed as desaibed in Argus Research Laboratories Protocol #418-010are received for analysis of fluorine compounds. Mated female rabbits were dosed on Day 7 of
presumed gestation, with administration continuing through Day 20. At Day 21, serum and liver
samples, as well as fetuses and placenta, were taken from rabbits in the toxicokinetic portion of
the study. At Day 29 for the rabbits remaining in the study, samples of serum and liver were taken, as well as fetuses and placenta.
At the discretion of the Study Director, a series of analytical tests will be performed on select tissues. Initially, all liver samples will be analyzed for PF:OS by Electrospray/mass spectrometry ( E S M S ) . On the basis of findings from these analyses, additional samples may be evaluated. If additional analysis is performed, a protocol amendment will be written to add the matrices and methods to the protocol.
For analysis performed by the 3M Environmental Laboratory, the methods listed in the analytical methods section will be used. At the discretion of the StudyDirector, select analysis may be 1fwformed by a contract laboratory where competencehas been demonstrated, using validated analytical methods. If a contract laboratory is used, the methods and data provided to the Study . Director will be identified in the final report.

In each place a high solvent blank was analyzed, additional solvent blanks or method blanks
were analyzed immediately following the high blank. This second injectionwas below the

injection of a high standard from a previous run. For this reason,more than one blank is
typically analyzed prior to the start of a calibration curve. These second and third, etc. blanks

2.0 SUMMARYOF METHOD 2.1 This method describes the procedure for extracting potassium perfluorooctanesulfonate
(PFOS)or other fluomchemical surfactants from serum, or other fluids, using an ion pairing reagent and methyl-teri-butyl ether (MtBE).In this method, seven fluorochemicalswere extracted: PFOS,PFOSA,PFOSAA, EtlFOSE-OH, PFOSEA, M556,and surrogate standard (see 3.0 Definitions). An ion patiring reagent is added to the sample and the analyte ion pair is partitioned into MtBE. The MtBE extract is removed and put onto a nitrogenevaporator until dry. Each extract is reconstituted in 1.O
mL of methanol, then filtered through a 3 cc plastic syringe attached to a 0.2 p nylon filter into glass autovials. 2.2 These sample extracts are analyzed following method ETS-8-5.1 or other appropriate methods.

2.0 SUMMARYOF METHOD
2.1 This method describes the procedure for extracting potassium perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) or other fluorochemical surfactants from liver, or other tissues, using an ion pairing reagent and methyl-tert-butyl ether (MtBE). In this method, seven fluorochemicals can be extracted: PFOS, PFOSA, PFOSAA, EtFOSE-OH,.P-FOSEA,M556,and surrogate
standard. An ion pairing reagent is added to the sample and the malyte ion pair is
partitioned into MtBE. The MtBE extract is transfim-edto a centrifugetube and put onto a
nitrogen evaporator until dry. Each extract is reconstituted in 1.O mL methanol then
filtered through a 3 cc plastic syringe attached to a 0.2 pmnylon filter into glass autovials.
2.2 These sample extracts are analyzed following method ETS-8-7.0 or other appropriate methods.

2.0 SUMMARY OF METHOD
2.1 This method describes the analysis of fluorochemical surfactants extracted from serum or other fluids, using HPLC-electrospray/mass spectrometry, or similar system as appropriate. The analysis is perfonned by monitoring a single ion characteristic of a particular fluorochemical, such as the perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) anion, m/z= 499. Additionally, samples may be analyzed using a tandem mass spectrometer to fbrther verify the identity of a compound by detecting daughter ions of the parent ion.
3.0 DEFINITIONS
3.1 Atmospheric Pressure Ionization (API): The Micrornass Quattro 11 triple quadrupole systems allow for various methods of ionization by utilizing various sources, probes, and
interfaces. These include but are not limited to: Elecmspray Ionization @SI), Atmospheric
Pressure chemical Ionization (APcI), Thennospray, etc:. The ionization process in these techniques occurs at atmosphericpressure (Le., not under a vacuum).
3.2 Electrospray Ionization (ES,ESI): a method of ionization performed at atmospheric pressure, whereby ions in solution are transfmed to the gas phase via tiny charged droplets.
These charged droplets are produced by the application of a strong electrical field.
3.3 Mass Spectrometry, Mass Spectrometer (MS), Tandem Mass Spectrometer (MS/MS):
The MI Quattro 11triple quadrupole systems are equipped with quadrupolemass selective detectors. Ions are selectively discriminated by mass to charge ratio ( d z )and subsequently detected. A single MS may be employed for ion detection or a series @ I S M S ) for more
specific frajpentation information.
3.4 Conventional vs. Zspray probe interface: The latest models of Micromass Quattro I1 triple quadrupole systems (post 1998)utilize a "Z-spray" conformation. The spray emitted from a probe is orthogonal to the cone aperture. In the conventional conformation it is aimed directly at the cone aperture, after passing through a tortuous pathway in the counter electrode. Though the configuration is different, the methods of operation, cleaning, and maintenance are the same. However, Z-spray components and conventional components are
not compatible with one another, but only with similar :systems(i.e., :Z-spraycomponents are
compatible with some other Z-spray systems, etc.)
3.5 Mass Lynx Software: System software designed for the specific opcxation of these Quattro
11triple quadrupole systems. Currently MassLynx has 'Windows95 and WindowsNT 4.0 versions. All versions are similar. For more details see the manuaI specific to the instrument (Micromass Quattro 11triple quadrupoleMassLynx or bdasslynx NT User's Guide).
4.0 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS 4.1 Health and Safety Warnings:
4.1.1 Use caution with the voltage cables for the probe. When engaged, the probe employs a voltage of approximately 5000 Volts.
4.1.2 When handling samples or solventswear appropriateprotective gloves, eyewear, and clothing.

11.0 CALIBRATIONAND STANDARDIZATION 11.1 Analyze the extracted matrix standards prior to and following each set of extracts. T h e
average of two standard curves will be plotted by linear regression (y = my + b), weighted
l/x,not forced through zero, using MassLyw or other suitable software.
11.2 If the curve does not meet requirements, perform rouline maintenance or reextract the standard curve (if necessary) and reanalyze.
11.3 For purposes of accuracy when quantitating low levels of analyte, it may be necessary to use the low end of the calibration curve rather than the fiJ1 range ofthe standard curve. Example: when attempting to quantitate approximate:ly 10 ppb of analyte, generate a calibration curve consisting of the standards from 5 ppb to 100ppb rather than the full range of the curve (5 ppb to 1000ppb). This will reduce inaccuracy attributed to linear regression weighting of high concentration standards.

2.0 SUMMARY OFMETHOD
2.1 This method describes the analysis of fluorochemicalsurfactants extracted from liver using HPLC-electrospray/mass spectrometry, or similar system as appropriate. The analysis is performed by monitoring a single ion characteristic of a particular fluorochemical, such as
the perfluorooctanesulfonate(PFOS)anion,m/z = 499. Additionally, samples may be
analyzed using a tandem mass spectrometer to furlher verify the identity of a compound by detecting daughter ions of the selected parent ion.
3.0 DEFINITIONS
3.1 Atmospheric Pressure Ionization (MI):The Micromass Quattro 11triple quadrupole systems allow for variousmethods of ionization by utilizing v a r i o i ~sources, probes, and
interfaces. These include but are not limited to: Elecb-ospray Ioniration @SI), Atmospheric
Pressurechemical Ionization (APcI),Thermospray, atc. The ionization process in these techniques occurs at atmospheric pressure (i.e. not under a vacuum).
3.2 Electrospray Ionization (ES,ESI): a method of iorlization performed at atmospheric
pressure, whereby ions in solution are transferred to the gas phase via tiny charged droplets. These charged droplets are produced by the application of a strong electrical field.
3.3 Mass Spectrometry,Mass Spectrometer (MS),Tandem Mass Spectrometer (MS/MS): The API Quattro II triple quadrupole mass spectromc:tex is equipped with two quadrupole mass selectivedetectors and a collision cell. Ionsm:selectively discriminated by mass to charge ratio ( d z )and subsequently detected. A sinpJe MS may be employed for ion detectionor an ion may be selected in the first quadrupole, hgmented in the collision cell, and these fragmentsmay be analyzed in the second quadrupole.
3.4 Conventional vs. Z-spray probe interface: The latest models of Micromass Quattro I1 triple quadrupole (post 1998)utilize a "Z-spray" conformation. Tiespray emitted fiom a probe is orthogonal to the cone aperture. In the conventional conformation it is aimed directly at the cone aperture, after passing through a 1:ortuouspathway in the counter electrode. Though the configuration is different, the methods of operation, cleaning, and maintenance are the same. However, Z-spray compaaents and con.ventional components are not compatiblewith one another, but only with similar systems (Le:. 2-spray components are compatiblewith other 2-spraysystems, etc.)
3.5 Mass Lynx Software: System software designed for the specific operation of these Quattro 11triple quadrupolesystems. Currently MassLynxhiis Windows 95 and WindowsNT 4.0 versions. All versions are similar. For more details refer to the manual specific to the
instrument (Micromass Quattro II triple quadrupole IdassLynx or MassLynx NT User's
Guide).
4.0 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS 4.1 Health and Safety Warnings:
4.1.1 Use caution with the voltage cables for the probe. When engaged, the probe employs a voltage of approximately SO00 Volts.
