ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:A mixturecontainingperfluorooctanesulfonatweh;i,ch may alsobe referredto as PFOS, FC-95, oras a component ofFC-206CE. (1Octanesulfoniaccid)(CAS # 2795-39-3).
Remarks: The 3M productionlotnumber was 502. The testsample isFC206CE (2/16/89).Currentinformatioinndicatesitisa mixtureof0.92% PFOS, 15% diethyleneglycolbutylether,76.09% water,4% urea,1.28% Sultonefoamer, 1.55% sodium octylsulfate1,.05% polyoxyethylene monooctylphenylether,0.06% sodium laurylsulfatea,nd 0.05% tolytriazole.
The followingsummary appliesto a mixture with incompletely characteilzedconcentrations of impudties. Data may not accurately reflectthe toxicityof the fluorochemkal component of the testsample.
