Are PFOA Serum Concentrations from Rat Toxicological Studies Useful in HumanHealth Risk Characterization? s Relevant Facts in the Rat Model Serum PFOA does not correlate to cumulative dose in rats Female rats rapidly absorb and excrete PFOA such that the concentration in serum is dependent on time of sample relative to the time of last dose. & Illustrative Clearance Curve c 2i g81 s s 3E . & Hours 7 Other Examples (Females) 100 % of an oral dose of "C-PFOA in pregnant rats was recovered in urine within two days. Female rats excreted essentially 100% of an i.v. dose of "C-PFOA after 24 hours. After single oral doses of 2.5 to 150 mg/kg PFOA to female rats, blood [PFOA] was 3 to 162 ppm at 30 minutes and 0.12 to 18 ppm at 24 hours. & Serum [PFOA] is not proportional to dose in male rats (and monkeys) after repeated oral doses. 7 Examples (Males) Mean male rat serum [PFOA] at the end of dosing for 106 days at 10 and 30 mg/kg/day were 50 and 45 ppm, respectively. Mean serum concentrations in male cynomolgus monkeys after six months of dosing at 3, 10 and 30/20 mg/kg/day were 77, 86 and 158 ppm, respectively. 10 Answer Serum [PFOA] in female (and male) rats after dosing is not a reliable indication of cumulative internal dose for use in human- health risk characterization. " Recommendation Use of standard EPA risk-characterization procedures, e.g., going from external dose in the animal model and application of appropriate uncertainty factors appears to be more appropriate for human-health risk characterization with PFOA. 12 Question?
