ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:Perfluorooctanoiaccid,ammonium salt;may alsobe referredto as PFOA ammonium saltA,mmonium perfluorooctanoateF,C116, FC-126, FC-169, or FC-143. (Octanoicacid, pentadecafluoro-a,mmonium salt,CAS # 3825-26-1)
Remarks: 3M productionlotnumber 390. The testsample isFC-126, a whitepowdery solid.It'psuritywas not sufficientclhyaracterizedt,hough currentinformationindicatesitisa mixtureof78 - 93% testsubstance and 7 -22% C5, C6, and C7 perfluoroanalogue compounds.
METHOD:
