This study was reported using a test substance purity o f 98.9% . The test substance characterization was revised on 9/7/00 and the purity w as determined to be 86.9% . The Sponsor requested that the results be revised based on the m ost recent purity analyses. The measured concentrations previously presented were sim ply corrected by the ratio o f the tw o purities or a factor o f 0.8787. N o attempt w as made to recalculate analytical standard concentrations. As such, minor errors due to rounding may be present. Attached is the revised summary page from the final report and the most recent certificate o f analysis.

PFOS
Non-GLP Study: Determination o f the Solubility o f PFOS in W ildlife International, Ltd. Freshwater, Freshwater Algal Medium, and Saltwater
TEST DATES:
Experimental Start - January 8 ,1 9 9 9 Experimental Termination - March 5 ,1 9 9 9
1 TEST SYSTEMS:
Freshwater, Freshwater Algal Medium, and Saltwater
SUMMARY:
The mean solubility concentration o f PFOS in freshwater @ 20 C after a 24 hour shake period w as 326 mg/L 41.9 mg/L (CV = 12.9%; N = 3). The mean solubility concentration o f PFOS in freshwater algal medium @ 20 C after a 24 hour shake period w as 378 mg/L 22.9 mg/L (CV = 6.07% ; N = 3). The mean solubility concentration o f PFOS in saltwater @ 20 C after a 24 hour shake period was 21.8 mg/L 0.510 mg/L (CV = 2.34%; N = 3).

Potassium is expected in this salt form and is therefore not considered an impurity.
P urity by DSC is generally not applicable to materials o f low purity. No endotherm was observed for this sample.
^Sulfur in the sample appears to be converted to SO* and hence detected using the inorganic anion method conditions. The anion result agrees well with the sulfur determination in the elemental analysis, lending confidence to tins interpretation. Based on the results, the SO* is not considered an impurity.

Note: The C4 and C6 values were calculated using the C4 and C6 standard calibration curves, respectively. The CS value was calculated using the average response factors from the C4 and C6 standard curves. Likewise, the C7 value was calculated using the average response factors from the C6 and C8 standard curves.
