ACUTE TOXICITY TO AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES TEST SUBSTANCE
(DAPHNIA MAGNA)
Identity:A mixturecontainingperfluorooctanesulfonatweh,ich may alsobe referredto as PFOS, FC-95, or as a component of FC-206CE. (1Octanesulfoniaccid)(CAS # 2795-39-3).
Remarks: The 3M productionlotnumber was 502. The testsample isFC206CE (2/16/89).Currentinformatioinndicatesitisa mixtureof0.92% PFOS, 15% diethyleneglycolbutylether,76.09% water,4% urea,1.28% Sultonefoamer, 1.55% sodium oetylsulfate,1.05% polyoxyethylene monooctylphenylether,0.06% sodium laurylsulfatea,nd 0.05% tolytriazole.
The followingsummary appliesto a mixture with incompletely characterizedconcentrations of impurities.Data may not accurately reflectthe toxicityof the fluorochemical component of the testsample.

Analyticalmonitoring: Temperature, pH, and DO
Exposure period: 48-hours
Test organism age: <24 hours old
Statisticamlethod: Not given. Test conditions:
Dilutionwater: Carbon-filterewdellwater
Dilutionwater chemistry:
Temperature: Dissolved oxygen: pH:
20 OC 9.6 mg/L 8.0
Lighting: Not given.
Stock and testsolution preparation: The testmaterialwas added directly tothedilutiownater on a weighvvolume basis. Exposure vessels: 250 mL Pyrex glassbeakers containing200 mL oftest solutionand a waterdepth 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(contreoxlposure) 7.9- 8.1(1000 mg/L exposure)
Temperature range (0-48hours): 20 -21 *C Dissolved oxygen range (0-48hours):
8.5- 9.6mg/L (controelxposure) 4.5- 9.6mg/L (1000 mg/L exposure)
RESULTS
Nominal concentrations:Blankcontroland 1000 mg/L
Element values: 48-hour EC50 = >1,000 mg/L
Element valuesbased on nominalconcentrations
Remarks: Testingwas conducted on a mixtureas describedinthe Test Substance Remarks field.The valuesreportedapplytothatmixtureand not the fluorochemicalproportionalone.
CONCLUSIONS
The FC-206CE 48-hour EC50 was determined to be >1000 mg/L.
