ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH
TEST SUBSTANCE
Idenfity:Perfluorooctanesulfonylamido(ethyl)acetmaatye;alsobe referredto as PFOSAA, FC-128 or as the major component of FC-127, FC-129, FC-109, or FC-109-X. (Glycine,N-ethyl-N[(heptadecafluorooctyl)sulfonpyolt]a-s,sium saltC,AS # 299151-7)
Remarks: The testsample isFC-128.Currentinformatioinndicateistis a mixtureof86% testsubstanceand 14% C4-C7 fluoroalkcyalrboxylate compounds. 3M productionlotnumber 751.

Water chemistryduringthestudy: Dissolvedoxygen range(0- 96 hours): 5.7- >9.0mg/L(contreoxlposure) 5.1- >9.0 mg/L (180 mg/L exposure)* pH range (24 - 96 hours): 7.6- 7.8 (controelxposure) 7.5- 7.9 (180mg/L exposure)* 180 mg/L testgroup data givenbecause totalmortalitoyccurred inthe 320 mg/L testgroup by 72 hours and alldata was not collected. Test temperature (0- 96 hours): 62 to670F
RESULTS
Nominal concentrations: Bk control3,2, 56, 100, 180, and 320 mg/L Element value: 96-hour LC50 = 100 (70 - 142) mg/L
Allelement values based on nominal concentrations
StatisticaElvaluation of Mortality: Probitanalysiswas used to calculateLC50 valueand the corresponding confidencelimits.
CONCLUSIONS
The testsample 96-hourLC50 forfatheadminnow was determined to be 100 mg/L witha 95% confidenceintervaolf70 - 142 mg/L.
