PFOS: A 48-Hour StaticAcute ToxicityTeSt with the Cladoceran (Daphnia magna)
ACUTE TOXICITY TO AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES (E.G.,DAPHNIA)
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:Perfluorooctanesulfonatmea;y alsobe referredtoas PFOS or FC-95. (I-Octanesulfoniaccid,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8heptadecafluoro-p,otassium salt,CAS # 2795-39-3)
Remarks field:The testsubstance isa whitepowder. Sample was taken from 3M lotnumber 217. Sample was storedunder ambient conditions priortotestingP.uritydeterminedto be 90.49% by LC/MS, 'H-HMR, 'gFNMR and elementalanalysestechniques.

AnalyticaMlethodology:Analysesoftestsolutiownesre performeadt WildlifIenternationaLltd.usinghigh performance liquidchromatography withmass spectrometridcetection(HPLC/MS). When determiningthe concentrationofthe testsubstance inthe testsolutionst,he same and most prominentpeak response forperfluorooctanesulfonawtaes used. No attemptwas made to quantifyon the basisofindividuailsomeric components. The LOQ (limiotfquantitatiowna)s 4.58 mg/L inthisstudy. The mean percentrecoveryofmatrixfortificatiaonaslyzed concurrently duringsample analysiswas 96.2.Samples collectedattestinitiatihoand measured valuesfrom 85.5 to 112% ofnominal.
