BIODEGRADATION TEST SUBSTANCE Identity:Perfluorodecanesulfonatea,mmonium salt;may also be referred to as PFDS, FC-121-X, or 3M Sample E2112 and E2566-1. (IDecanesulfonicacid, 1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,100-,h1e0n,e1icosafluoro-, ammonium salt,CAS # 67906-42-7) Remarks: Test sample isa mixtureofthe testsubstance inwater and 2propanol,1-(1,1-dimethylethoxyT)h.is mixturecontainsapproximately2226% testsubstance,33-37% propanol,1-(1,1-dimethylethoxy6).,5-1.5% perfluorononanesulfonatea,mmonium saltand 38-42% water).Allvalues reportedrelatetothismixture.No calculationwsere made to adjustfor the actualconcentrationofthe testsubstance inthe testsample. Test materialwas from 3M productionlot1. METHOD Method: Standard methods #507 forBOD, standard methods #508A for COD Type: Aerobic GLP: No Year completed: 1987 Contact time:20 days Inoculum: Source of inoculumnot recorded RESULTS 5-day carbonaceous BOD: 5,800 mg/kg 10-day carbonaceous BOD: 8,000 mg/kg 20-day carbonaceous BOD: 11,000 mg/kg COD: 870,000 mg/kg Remarks: This materialhas a perfluorinatemdoiety and a nonfluorinatemdoiety. Currentknowledge ofthese chemistriessuggests that allbiodegradationindicatedinthisstudy islikeldyue to reductionofthe non-fluorinatemdoiety,propanol,1-(1,1-dimethylethoxy) Testingwas conducted on the "as-sold"mixtureofthe subjectmaterialin water (-22-26% subjectmaterial)T.he values reportedapplyto that mixtureand notdirectltyo the subjectmaterial. CONCLUSIONS Thistestingindicatetdhatthe propanol,1-(1,1-dimethylethoxmyo)ietyis likeltyo be biodegraded inaerobicenvironmentscapableof supporting biodegradationT.his studycannotruleoutthepossibilitthyatconditions couldbe found thatwould allowforbiodegradationofthefluorochemical component, norcoulditexcludethepossibilitthyata microorganismcould eventuallybe enrichedthatcouldmetabolicallaylterthischemical.
