Study Objective: The objectiveof thisstudy isto assessthe potentialfororalabsorption,urinaryand fecal clearanceand biologicalpersistenceofPerfluorooctaneSulfonan@de(PFOSA) inmale Sprague Dawley ratsaftera singleoraldose.Analysisofthe serurfll,iveru,rineand feces for potentiamletabolitesofPFOSA wU be performed by LCMS and perhaps other methods. Previousstudiesofthe N-ethylderivativeofPFOSA have concluded that PFOSA isthe ultimatemetaboliteinrats(1,2);however, theanalyticatlechniqueused in thesestudieswas unable to detectallpotentialmetabolitesi,ncluding perfluorooctanesulfonat(ePFOS). No pharmacokineficstudieshave yetbeen done on PFOSA to resolvethisissueand searchforotherpossiblemetabolitesintheurineand feces.Recently,validatedmethods have been developed forthe quantitatioonfPFOSA and itspotentialmetaboliteP,FOS, inserum and liverdown tothe low partperbilbon level(3).One goal of thisstudyisto determinethepotentiaflor,ifoccurringt,heextentof conversionof PFOSA to PFOS.

Subject: Characterizationof PFOSA Sample forToxicology
LarTy,
I have completed the HPLC/MS characterizationofthe PFOSA sample (T-7132-,L-10009 prepared by G. Moore 4/96) thatisproposed to be used forthe animialfeedirigstudy. I found 9,600 ppm of PFOS, 1,100 PPm Of C7FISS02NH2, 510 PPm Of C9Fl9S02NH2, 6,600 ppm of C8Fl6HS02NH2,24,000 ppm of Cl8F36HS02NH2, 1,200 ppm of C8F 1SH2S02NH2 and lower concentrations of several other amides. Based on the sum of the impurities,the purityof the PFOSA sample would be approximately 96 %.
I'vethought a littlmeore about apparent presence of C18F36HS02NH2 inthe sample. The identificationf thiscompound was based primarilyon the observed molecular weight and the relativeelutionorder inthe chromatogram. Rather than C18F36HS02NH2, itseems more probable thatthiscompound isactually(C8FI 7SO2)2NH. Confirmationof this identificativoanllrequireadditionalanalyses. Ialso need to thinkmore about whether the otherpartiallhyydrogenated perfluoroamides may actuallybe of this
The PFOS was quantifiedusing a standard curve prepared by analyzing PFOS standards so itsconcentrationshould be accurate. The amide impuritiesh,owever, includingthe partially hydrogenated amides, were allquantifiedusing a PFOSA standard curve assuming thatthey had the same mass spectralresponse factoras did PFOSA. While thisassumption will introducesome errorto the quantitativedata, itisthe best we ran do sincewe do not have standards foreach of these amides. Also, thiscalculatedpurityassumes thatallof the impuritiesare amenable to HPLC and are detected by the analysis.While not always true, thissample was analyzed by Rick Payfer using GC/MS and by CATC using our GC method. Neither of the analyses found volatiloer semivolatileimpuritiese,.g.,N-methyl FOSE, NethylFOSE, etc.at concentrationsgreaterthan 50 ppm.
I alsocarriedout a semiquantitativeassessment of the purityofthe PFOSA by comparing the PFOSA response to a PFOSA standard curve. Using thistechnique,the purityof the PFOSA sample was found to be 118 %. These analyses were carded out induplicate,with triplicatienjectionsof each solution,so they should be relativelayccurate as analytical variationwould be averaged. Ingeneral,however, itisnot highlyaccurate to use a chromatographic method to quantifya relativelypure materialdue tothe extremely large dilutiofnactor,inthiscase > 100,000,that must be applied. Itisnot expected that instrumentalvariationwould biasthe purityhigh. Itispossiblethatthe purityof the sample isactuallyhigherthan the purityofthe PFOSA thatwe are usingas a standard! Ifthiswere true,the puritywould be determined to be > 100%.
Andrew Seacat has reviewed the concentrationsof the impuritiesthatwere determined and calculatedthatthe concentrationof PFOS willnot adverselyaffectthe study. At 9,600 ppm, he calculatesthatthe ratsreceiving3 mg/kg/day would ingestapp. 0.20 mg PFOS totalin

T-7132.2; ST-39 PFOSA PK
Appendix I Continued: 28 days assuming a 0.25 kg rat. Ifwe furtherassume that30 % ofthatisdeposited inthe liver(based on previousfeeding studies)and liverisapproximately12 grams, then the predictedconcentrationin the liverfrom the residualPFOS would be 200 ug PFOS x 0.3 112 g liverweight = 5 ug/gram, or 5 ppfn,which in itselsfhould not impose any toxicological consequences. Any PFOS measured significantloyver thatcould be attributetdo metabolism of PFOSA to PFOS. He believesthatthe 1-H and 2-H pertluoroamides are interestinags they may be subjectto metabolic attack,however these amides should be analyticalldyistincftrom the Perfluodnatedspecies on down the line,and would not amount to a foreseeable toxic concentrationand thereforewould be acceptable ifno othersubstitutecan be prepared. Andrew isstiltlhinkingabout whether the (CBFI 7SO2)2NH willhave a negative impact on the study. Please give me a callat 6-0665 ifyou have any questions conceming our analyses or ifIcan provide additionalinformation. Fred L.DeRoos CATC
