R K i-O II ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH TEST SUBSTANCE Identity: Perfluorooctanesulfonate, Ammonium salt; may also be referred to as PFOS NH4+ salt or FC-93. (1-Octanesulfonic acid, 1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-heptadecafluoro-, ammonium salt, CAS #29081-56-9) Remarks: Test sample was taken from 3M production lot #1. The test sample is a mixture of the test substance in isopropanol and water (25% test substance, 20% isopropanol, 55% water). No calculations were made to adjust for the actual concentration of the test substance in the test sample. METHOD Method: Not noted. Type: Static acute GLP: No Year completed: 1974 Species: Pimephales promelas Supplier: Not noted. Analytical monitoring: pH and DO content Exposure period: 96-hours Statistical methods: Plotted LCsoTest fish age: Not noted. Length and weight: Average length = 2 inches, Average weight = 1.5 g Loading: Not noted. Pretreatment: Not noted Test conditions: Dilution water: Carbon filtered city of St. Paul, MN water Dilution water chemistry: Not noted. Stock and test solution preparation: Not noted. Concentrations dosing rate: Once Stability of the test chemical solutions: Not noted. Exposure vessels: Not noted. Number of replicates: One. Number of concentrations: five plus a negative control Water chemistry during the study: Dissolved oxygen range (0 - 96 hours): 4.5-5.7 mg/L (control exposure) 3.8-5.0 mg/L (125 mg/L exposure) 004610 Not recorded at highest cone. (150 mg/L) due to 100% mortality. pH range (0 - 96 hours) 7.0- 7.0 (control exposure) 7.0- 7.0 (125 mg/L exposure) Not recorded at highest cone. (150 mg/L) due to 100% mortality. Test temperature range (0 - 96 hours) 20 - 21C (69-70F) RESULTS Nominal concentrations: Bk control, 50, 75,100, 125, 150 mg/L Element value: 96-hour LC50 = 1 0 0 mg/L (C.l. not determined) Mortality of controls: None Remarks: 95% confidence limits were not calculated for this material. Additionally, testing was conducted on the mixture of the test substance in 20% isopropanol and 55% water. The value reported applies to that mixture and not the test substance. No attempt was made to determine the impact of the presence of the organic solvent or what portion of the toxicity can be contributed to the Perfluorooctanesulfonate, ammonium salt. CONCLUSIONS The test sample containing 25% Perfluorooctanesulfonate, ammonium salt exhibited a 96-hour LC50 for fathead minnow of 100 mg/L Submitter: 3M Company, Environmental Laboratory, P.O.
