ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:
Perfluorooctanoic acid, ammonium salt; may also be referred to as. PFOA ammonium salt, Ammonium perfluorooctanoate, PFO, FC116, FC-126, FC-169, or FC-143. (Octanoic acid, pentadecafluoro-
, ammonium salt, CAS # 3825-26-1)
Remarks: The 3M production lot number was 37. The test sample is FC143. It's purity was not sufficiently characterized, though current information indicates it is a mixture of 96.5 - 100% test substance and 0 -- 3.5% Cs, C7, andCsperfluoro analogue compounds.
