This study used the "Modified OECD Screening Test with DOC Analysis" and supplemental parallel sterile controls to conclusively demonstrate the extensive biodegradability of "LIGHT WATZR" Brand AFFF products: FC-203, FC-206, and FC-3017. In 14 days, the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) levels of FC-206 degraded by 90% and FC-3017 was 94% degraded. FC-203 showed 93% DOC degradation in 21 days. The parallel sterile controls proved that this DOC loss was not due to chemical or physical processes such as adsorption, volatilization, or precipitation of the parent material.

BIODEGRADATION
OF "L IGHT WATER" IN OECD TEST
PRODUCTS
INTRODUCTION
The 3M Environmental Laboratory chose to attempt to demonstrate the biodegradability of "LIGHT WATER" products using the OECD screening method because the test has wide international acceptance, and the Environmental Lab has had experience using the OECD test as a participant in an international ring test. These results will complement the existing BOD data that show these products to have a high degree of biodegradability.
The OECD test is run at 20-250C and it.measures only dissolved organic carbon. For these water-miscible "LIGHT WATER" products, which are not expected to volatilize, precipitate, or be adsorbed during testing, the OECD test is an appropriate method for measuring % total degradation. The TOC analysis method even measures the perfluorinated portion of these products.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
Methods and Conditions - Wade A. Scheil performed this testing following the September 19, 1979 version of the Modified OECD Screening Test with DOC Analysis(l). A copy of this method is attached (Appendix 1).
Reductions in the scale of the test were necessary to adapt it to available shaking equipment. Five hundred-ml Erlenmeyer flasks replaced 2-liter flasks, 250 ml of inoculated nutrient solution replaced 900 ml, and the sample size was 25, not 30 ml. As in the
prescribed procedure, the analyst used only the last 10 ml of sample filtrate for DOC analysis.
A calibrated chart recorder monitored the temperature which stayed within the 20-250C range during the 28-day test, except for a 3-4 hr. period when it reached 25.50C. The temperature was most frequently near the high end of the range (23.5-240C).
Chemicals - All chemicals were reagent grade unless otherwise noted.
The 3M "LIGHT WATER" products used were samples of commercial material of Antwerp manufacture. Their label identified them as FC-203 NFP, FC-3017 Lot 2303, and FC-206 (FM 3824) Lot 2330 10/79.
The hydroquinone used as the calibration compound was Aldrich reage nt
grade hydroquinone
98.5%, Lot 100147. Four chemical supply houses
were contacted in an attempt to obtain the 99.5% pure hydroquinone
prescribed by the Modified OECD Screening Test, but this purity is
apparenty not readiy available in the USA.* We expect that this
reduced purity will have no signficant effect on results. The
impurities have no apparent inhibitory.effect on microorganisms and
their presence could make only a trivial change in TOC measurements.

Water used in the preparation of all solutions, except the inoculum, was St. Paul city water passed through a carbon bed, macroporous anionic resin bed, and 2 mixed bed deionizers, and then filtered through a 0.2-um filter. This water was also used to make up losses to evaporation. Stocks of water collected at the start of the experiment ensured consistent water quality.
In preparing nutrient solutions, 26.4 g of anhydrous Na2HP04 replaced the prescribed 33.4 9 of NH2HP04-2H20, 36.3 g of CaCl2-2H20 replaced 27.5 g CaCl2. These replacements yielded solutions and concentrations identical to those required by the OECD Method. The optional yeast' extract solution was used in place of the vitamin solution (1.6.1.2(f)). The 100 mg of Fe-chelate used in the trace element solution consisted of equimolar amounts of FeCl3 and EDTA (30 mg FeCl3 and 70 mg EDTA).
Test Concentrations - DOC measurements of sample stock dilutions served as the basis for adjusting initial test concentrations to approximately 40 mg of carbon per liter. This is the highest concentration in the range recommended by the OECD test. Use of this high initial concentration increased the sensitivity of % DOC removal measurements. The low toxicity of "LIGHT WATER" products to microorganisms made significant inhibition at this concentration unlikely.
Adjustment of hydroquinone, the calibration compound, to 20 mg of carbon per liter was done by weight based on its known carbon concentration of 65.4%.
Two blank controls, instead of 1, were utilized in making blank DOC corrections.
Inoculum - The inoculum was 50-50 mixture prepared according to steps 1.6.2.1 and 1.6.2.2 o.f the OECD test using fresh soil from E. A. Reiner's garden and the supernatant of a sample from an activated sludge aeration basin at the St. Paul Metro Plant. The filter paper used was WhatmanR 54, and the water for soil extraction was chlorine-free well water.
Sterile Controls
Replicate vessels containing 400 mg/l HgCl2 served
as sterile controls for each test material and the calibration compound. Handling of these sterile controls was identical to the
handling of the viable cultures. They had the same innoculum and
sampling frequency, but the analyst only made DOC measurements on the
0- and 28-day samples.
Sample Preservation - The sample preservation method used was that
prescribed by the TOC manufacturer(4).
The method involves adding 1
drop of concentrated HC1 to the 10 ml filtered samples, bringing the
sample to <pH 2, and storing the samples under refrigeration in vials
with aluminum foil-lined caps. The method is an effective
preservation method. The manufacturer indicates that the method can
stabilize calibration solutions made from potassium hydrogen
phthalate, a readily biodegradable material, for several months.

Since the acidification in this preservation method was also a necessary step in the TOC analysis protocol, its use was the most practical and allowed elimination of the HgCl2 preservation technique described in the OECD method. All TOC analyses were made within a month of the preservation of the samples.

In the case of the highly water soluble "LIGHT WATER" products, it is
very unlikely that physical means such as adsorption, volatilization, or precipitation caused the loss of soluble TOC (DOC). This is substantiated by the relatively high oxygen demand observed in BOD tests of the 3M Environmental Laboratory (FC-203 BOD5/COD = 0.5, FC-206 BOD5/COD = 0.5).
The sterile control data in Table 2 provide further substantial evidence that the soluble TOC loss from the test samples containing "LIGHT WATER" products is not due to adsorption, volatilization, or precipitation. These samples were handled identically to the test samples except that they contained HgCl2 to prevent microbial growth.
At the end of the 28-day test period, they still contained nearly all the initial DOC. Thus loss of soluble TOC by these physical modes was not a major factor, at least for nonmetabolized "LIGHT WATER" components. This control doesn't prove that physical processes did not remove "LIGHT WATER" metabolites in the test runs, since no metabolism occurred in these sterile controls, but the catabolic* formation of less water soluble materials is unlikely because catabolic products are usually more polar and smaller.

An off-white precipitate formed in the hydroquinone sterile control on day 0 prior to filtering for DOC analysis. The precipitate was slightly brownish, as was the solution in the hydroquinone sterile control after 21 days. This suggests that hydroquinone is not stable, at least in the presence of HgCl2, throughout the course of the 28-day OECD experiment. This apparent tendency of hydroquinone to spontaneously form insoluble humus-like material makes it an inappropriate control compound for the OECD test. Its partial precipitation with HgCl2 also casts some doubts about the appropriateness of using the HgCl2 preservation procedure in the OECD method.
CONCLUSION
The present study conclusively demonstrates that "LIGHT WATER" products, FC-203, FC-206, and FC-3017, are nearly completely degraded
in 21 days under the conditions of the modified OECD Screening Test.

Preamble
It has to be realized that the following procedure for the modified OECD Screening Test has to be regarded in some points as provisional since several important features such as the calibration compound and the new test duration of 28 days are completely untried yet. However, since the test constitutes a m'odification the of*&'icial,widely practised and well accepted OECD Screening Test for the biodegradability evaluation of surfactants there should exist a good prospect for success.

1.3.1 Calibration compound The calibration compound used in this test is hydroquinone at a concentration corresponding to 20 mg DOC/l. Hydroquinone has to exhibit a DOC-removal of@@t6O % within 28 days,, otherwise the test is regarded as invalid.
1.4-The principle of the method A predetermined amount of the compound is disso' ved in an inorganic medium (mineral nutrient solution, fortified with a trace element and essential vitamin solution), providing a concentration corresponding to 5 - 40 mg DOC/l. The solution is inoculated with a small number of microorganisms from a mixed population and aerated at 293 - 2,08. (20 25 0 C) in the dark or at least in diffuse light only. The degradation is followed by DOC analysis over a 28 day period. The procedure is checked by means of a standard (hydroquinone). A control with inoculation but without either test material or standard is run parallel for the determination of DOC blanks.

A high purity of this test water is necessary in view of the DOC analyses in the concentb-ation range of 0 - 40 mg/j. "Llhecontaminations result from inherent impurities but also from the ion exchange resins and microbial devel&opments (bacteria, algae under the influence of light etc). Only one water charge must be used for one test series which is to be controlled beforehand by DOC analysis. If necessary, suitable water may be gained by UV irradiation or other means.

1.6.3 Conduct4hon of the test 1.6.3.1 Procedure
The test materials are evaluated simultaneously 4-n duplicates together with the standard (1.6.1-3) and a control test with inoculation but without either test or standard material for the determination of DOC blanks. The standard material has to attain 1- 60 % DOC removal within 28 days at a starting concentration corresponding to 20 mg DOC/l. If <60 % DOC removal are achieved the whole series has to be discarded +)
+) This limit is based on present experience with the 19 day version of the test.-A revision of this limit or even of the standard might have to be considered after the accumulation of experience with the new 28 day version of the test.

-10
A stock solution of the test material in water (1.6.1.1) is prepared. So much of this stock solution is added to the nutrient solution (1.6.1.2) thit a carbon concentration of 5 - 40 mg DOC/1 is attained. The starting concentration of the standard hydroquinone is, though, 20 mg DOC/l.
Two reaction vessels (1.6.1.5) are each filled with 900 ml of the nutrient solution and inoculated with 0.5 ml/l of the inoculum (1.6.2). The opening of the vessel is covered with, e.g., aluminum foil in such a wa:ythat the exchange of dir between the flask and the surroundi,-,gatmosphere is not unduly impeded (Cotton wool is unsuited because of the DOC analysis). The vessels are then inserted in the shaking machine. The temperature of 293 -298K ( 20 -250C) must be maintained unchanged during the test, and the vessels should be shielded from light. The air should be free of pollutants and toxic materials (chlorinated solvents etc).
In the course of the biodegradation test the DOC concentrations are determined in duplicate (1.6.4.2) at the beginning (day 0). and on the 27. and 28. day. Three additional analyses have to be performed
in rather regular time intervals -21. day)
14.,, and
The analyses are registered in the attached form sheet and evaluated.
Only the necessary volumes of culture medium may be
drawn for each determination; however., they have to
be large enough for the membrane filtration or centri-
fugation preceeding the carbon determination. The latter
requires differing volumes for the different instruments. Evaporation losses of the culture medium are to be made up by adding water (1.6.1.1) in the required amounts. .The culture medium is to biamixed well before withdrawing a sample. Material adhering to the wall of the vessel has to be dissolved or suspended before sampling. The* membrane
filtration
or centrifugation has to be..d:oneimmediately.
The filtered or centr@ifuged samples..have to be analyzed
on the same day, otherwise they must be preserved with
0,05 ml of the HgCl.@ solution (1.6.1.4) for each 10ml
of nutrient medium or by storing them at 2 - 40C, The
biodegradability test 13 valid provided the standard
exhibits a degradation rate within the specified range.
The test can be@finish'ed before the 28. day if complete
minerali-zation is
All steps require great care and cleanliness of the vessels, pipettes etc. but not sterility.

ending in 0.5 are rounded up to the nearest whole number. The course of the degradation test is followed graphically in a diagram as shown in the attached example. The results are reported on the attached data sheet.
The results of the degradation test are valid if the condition is met that in the same test series the standard yields ':t60 % DOC-removal.
1.6.4' Analytical means 1.6.4.1 Membrane filter 0;2 pm, 25 mm 0 (1.6.1.6). Pre-
paration'of the filters; membrane filters are impregnated with surfactants for hydrophilizat4.on. Thus each filter contains up to several mg of soluble carbon which would interfere in the biodegradability determinations. Therefore the filters are purified from surfactants and other soluble
organic '*interferencesby boiling them 3 times 1 hr each in deionize.d water. These filters may be stored in water (1.6'.1.1)for at least one week. Other membrane filters are suitable if it is assured that they neither release carbon nor adsorb the compound in the filtration step.
If the samples are centrifuged, this has to be done at 40,000 m sec-2 ( 4000 g) for 15 minutes., preferably in a refrigerated centrifuge, in any case <400C.
(Remark: the differentiation TOC:DOC by centrifugation at very low concentrations does not seem to work well since either not all bacteria are removed or carbon as part of the bacterial plasma is redissolved.. At higher test concentrations ( >.10 mg C/1) and the same
small inoculationthe centrifugationerror seems to be
comparatively small

1.6.4.2-The DOC measurement The sample withdrawn from the culture medium (about 30 ml) is centrifuged or membrane filtered immediately in the filtration apparatus (1.6.1.6) using the membrane filters prepared acc. to 1.6.4.1. The first 20 ml of the filtrate are discarded*.
The DOC concentration is determined twice in the remaining filtrate (about 10 ml) by means of the TOC/DOC instrument (1.6.1.8). If the filtrate cannot be analyzed on the same day it has to be conserved ace. to 1.6.3.1. The DOC measurements (mgC/1) obtained'are registered on the@'attached data sheet and the DOC concentrations of the culture medium and of the blanks calculated for each sampling time.

OECD Chemicals Testing Programme Test Guideline for the Modified OECD Screening Test with DOC Analysis
0. The test procedure constitutes a modification of the OECD Screening Test (OECD Environment Directorate, Proposed Method for tfieDetermination of the Biodegradability of Surfactants Used in Synthetic Detergents, Paris 1976, and council directive of Nov. 22, 1973, on the approximation of the laws of the member states relating to methods of testing the biodegradability of anionic surfactants (73/405/EEC),Official Journal of the European Communities Mo. 4 347/53 of Dec. 17, 1973) for the application of the dissolved organic carbonODOC)analysis.
1. Method
1.2 Introduction: Purpose, scope, relevance, and application of test and explanationof limits.
The purpose of the method is the measurement of the ultimate biodegradabilityof water soluble, non volatile organic compounds in an aerobic, aqueous medium at a starting test concentration corresponding to 5-- -40mg DOC/1 ( In order to avoid inhibitory effects it is in the investigator'sown interest
