REASON FOR SUPPLEMENT NO. 1
The purpose of this supplement is to present the results from analysis of selected liver samples from rats treated with the test substance (H-23925), 2 positive controls (H-24019 and H-24020), and 2 negative controls (com oil and com oil/acetone).

DuPont-2921 Supplement No. 1
SUMMARY
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential for H-23925, when administered by gavage, to be absorbed and to accumulate in a mammalian system. Six groups of 5 male Crl:CD(SD)IGS BR rats each were given 200 mg/kg/day of H-23925. The test substance was administered to one group of 5 rats for 5 consecutive days and to 5 groups for 10 days. On selected days (5, 10, 13, 24, 52, 94) 5 rats per group were euthanized and the blood and livers were collected. Livers were weighed and those collected on study days 10 and 94 were analyzed for total fluorine. This supplement includes liver weight data and the results of total fluorine analyses in livers. Additionally, 2 negative controls, com oil and com oil/acetone (80:20), and 2 positive controls, H-24019 (10 mg/kg/day) and H-24020 (20 mg/kg/day), were tested and analyzed as described for H-23925.
The mean relative liver weight (liver/body weight) of rats dosed with the test substance, H-23925, was up to 25% higher at day 10 than the mean relative liver weights of the negative control groups. By day 94, the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance was similar to the negative controls. On day 10, the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the positive control H-24019 was up to 27% higher than the negative controls. By day 94, the mean relative liver weight was up to 28% higher than the negative controls. In rats given H-24020, the mean relative liver weight was up to 75% higher than the negative controls. By day 94, the weights were similar.
The liver fluorine concentration of rats dosed with the test substance, H-23925, was 888.28 /xM equivalents on day 10 and 69.47 f i M equivalents on day 94. On day 10, mean /xM equivalent concentrations of fluorine in the livers from rats dosed with the positive control materials were approximately 6-fold (H-24019) and 1.3-fold (H-24020) greater than the /xM equivalent fluorine concentration in livers from rats treated with the test substance. On day 94, the /xM equivalent concentration of H-23925 in the liver was 17-fold lower than the /xM equivalent concentration of H-24019 but 6x higher than the /xM equivalent concentration of H-24020.
The /xM equivalents o f fluorine in the livers from rats treated with the test substance were higher . than levels in the blood.
Under the conditions of this study, there was some absorption and retention of fluorine in the liver from rats dosed with H-23925. Fluorine levels in the liver in rats dosed with H-23925 were lower than levels in rats dosed with the positive control material H-24019. Fluorine levels in the liver in rats dosed with H-23925 were lower on day 10 than the levels in rats dosed with the positive control H-24020 but were higher on day 94. Liver weights were elevated in rats dosed with the test substance, H-23925, at the end of the dosing period, but not at the end of the recovery period.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Blood and livers were collected on days 5,10, 13, 24, 52, and 94. The livers were weighed. Only the test day 10 and 94 livers were analyzed for total fluorine. These time points provided sufficient data to determine the accumulation and persistence of fluorine in the liver. See the original report for details of the analysis.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
A. Liver Weights (Table 1; Figures 1-3; Appendix A)
As with the body weights, comparison of absolute liver weights was complicated by the fact that there was a difference in age on test day 1 between rats dosed with the test substance and those dosed with the positive or negative controls. The rats dosed with the test substance, H-23925, were older and heavier in weight than the com oil negative control and H-24020 positive control rats, but younger and lighter in weight than the com oil/acetone negative control and H-24019 positive control rats. Therefore, liver weights relative to total body weight are presented for comparison.
1. Test Substance
The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance, H-23925, was up to 25% higher at day 10 than the mean relative liver weights of the negative control groups. By day 94, the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance was similar to the negative controls.
2. Positive Controls
The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with one of the positive controls, H-24019, was similar on day 10 to the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance. At day 94, the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24019 was 21% higher than the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance. The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the other positive control, H-24020, was 40% higher on day 10 than the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with the test substance. The mean relative liver weights of rats dosed with H-24020 began to decrease during the recovery period and were similar on test days 52 and 94 to the mean relative liver weights of rats dosed with the test substance.
The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24019 was up to 27% higher at day 10 than the negative control groups. By day 94, the mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24019 was up to 28% higher than the negative controls. The mean relative liver weight of rats dosed with H-24020 was up to 75% higher at day 10 than the negative controls. The mean

TERMS AND CALCULATIONS
Terms: Active % Active
Mol W t Active Formulation Dose % F in Active
Mol W t F
Fluorine containing compound
The % of formulation that is made up of fluorine containing components
The molecular weight of the fluorine containing components (g/mole)
The mg of formulation given per kg of animal body weight
The % fluorine in the fluorine containing components of the formulation (weight basis)
The molecular weight of fluorine g/mol
Compound Calculations:
Dose Active (mg/kg)
The mg of fluorine containing compound administered per kg of animal body weight.
= (% active/100) x Formulation Dose
Dose Active (mmole/kg) The mmole of fluorine containing compound administered per kg of animal body weight = dose [mg/kg] / Mol Wt Active [mg/mmol]
Dose F (mg/kg)
The mg Fluorine administered per kg of animal body weight = (% F in active/100) x Dose Active [mg/kg]
Dose F (mmol/kg)
The mmole of fluorine administered per kg of animal body weight = Dose F [mg/kg] / Mol Wt F [mg/mmol]
Molar Ratio (Active/F) The moles of fluorine containing compound per mole of fluorine = Dose Active [mmol/kg] / Dose F [mmol/kg]
Formulation Dose Normalization Factor
The formulation dose that would be required to administer the amount of active needed to achieve the normalized dose

TERMS AND CALCULATIONS
Individual Animal Measurement:
ppm F in liver
The ppm fluoride measured in liver
Individual Animal Calculations:
ppm F in Liver minus Bkg 0.2 ppm
The ppm fluoride measured in liver minus the background fluoride measured in control animal liver. In this case the value was established at 0.2 ppm.
ppm F in Liver normalized to 0.1 mmol/kg Dose
The ppm fluoride minus background that would be expected if the active dose was 0.1 mmol/kg instead of the actual active dose. This assumes linearity between administered dose and liver fluorine levels, but is needed because different doses of active were used in the study.
= (0.1 [mmol/kg] / Active dose [mmol/kg]) x (ppm F in blood minus background)
ixmolar equivalents of active in liver
The /molar [/mol/L] concentration of fluorine containing compound in liver based on the ppm fluorine in liver normalized to 0.1 mmol/kg active dose. This assumes that all liver fluorine is derived from the fluorine-containing component in the formulation. Note: 1 ppm 1 mg/L
= (Normalized ppm [mg/L] fluorine in liver / Mol Wt F [mg/mmol]) x molar ratio active/F [mmol active/mmol F] x 1000 /mol/mmol

FACTORS INFLUENCING INTERPRETATION OF KINETIC ANALYSIS
Considerations:
- The data used for kinetic analysis was from a limited screen and extrapolation should be done cautiously.
- Sample size is low - Analytical data used without validation - Steady-state not reached - Terminal phase may not be reached - Some compounds are mixtures of fluorinated compounds - Different active and formulation doses were used - Different vehicles were used to deliver formulations - Each compound may have very different potency for producing toxicity
Assumptions: (May or may not bejustified in all cases)
- Liver fluorine concentrations are linear with respect to dose - Analytical method is appropriate for all types of compounds - Elimination kinetics can be determined based on total fluorine rather than on concentrations of
individual components - Background Fluorine is 0.2 ppm - % F data is the % Fluorine of the active (Fluorine containing component(s) in the formulation) - Molecular weight is the molecular weight of the active component in the formulation
