BIODEGRADATION
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:Perfluorooctanesulfonylamido(ethyl)acetmaatye;also be referredto as PFOSAA, FC-128 or as the major component of FC-1 27, FC-129, FC-1 09, FC-1 09-X or Rl 904. (Glycine,Nethyl-N-[(heptadecafluorooctyl)sulfopnoytla]s-s,ium salt,CAS 2991-51-7)
Remarks: The testsample isFC-129 referredtoby the testlaboratory as R1904. Currentinformationindicatesitisa mixtureof42% test substance,32% water,14% 2-butoxyethanol4,% ethanol,and 8% C4-C7 fluoroalkyclarboxylatecompounds. Test materialwas from 3M production
lot930014, mfg. date 3/97.
The followingsummary isabbreviated because the testsample isa mixture of the testsubstance in a waterlorganic solvent solution. Data does not accurately relatebiodegradation of the testsample with thatof the testsubstance.
METHOD:
Method: Not noted. Type: Aerobic GLP: No Year completed: 1997 Contact time:28 days lnoculum: Polyseed NX, lotD257

Remarks: The BOD and COD valuesare expected to be the resultof biodegradationofthe organicsolventcomponents ofthe testsample. These values are notexpected to be representativoefthe Perfluorooctanesulfonylamido(ethyl)acetate.
CONCLUSIONS
This testingindicatedthatsome portionofthe testsample biodegraded in aerobicenvironments capable ofsupportingbiodegradation.

DATA QUALITY
Reliability:Klimischranking3. This study lacksinformationon the methodology. Testingcannot concludewhat portionsofthe testsample were responsibleforthe apparentbiodegradationvalues. Comparison withthe COD value fordeterminationofthe levelofbiodegradationisnot valuablewithouta descriptioonf how the COD valuewas obtained.
