Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid is resistant to biodegradation(1) and does not biodegrade under typical environmental conditions(2). Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(3). Using an activated sludge inoculum and the manometric respirometry test, perfluorooctane sulfonic acid, present at 100 mg/L in 250 mL of inoculated medium as nominal source of organic carbon and stirred in a closed flask at 22 deg C for up to 28 days, obtained 0% of its theoretical BOD in four weeks(4). Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid was not degraded from an initial concentration of 5 mg/L in aerobic sewage sludge in a laboratory reactor over a 20-week period(1,5).
Bioaccumulative potential
A BCF range of 200-1500 was measured in fish for the potassium salt of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid using carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over a 58-day period at concentrations of 2 and 20 ug/L(1). Using bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) exposed to 86 ug/L of the potassium salt of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid for a 62-day period in a flow-through test, BCF values of 484 and 856 where determined for the edible and whole tissue respectively(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high to very high(SRC). Blackrock fish (Sebastes schlegeli) exposed to the potassium salt of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid for 28 days had serum and liver BCF values of 4714-6687 and 950-1475 respectively(4). Field-based BCF values of 830-26000 (whole body) where derived for catfish and largemouth bass collected from the Tennessee River in Alabama, whereas laboratory whole-body BCF values ranged from 700-3000 depending on species and concentration(2). A field-based geometric mean BCF of 10,964 for serum perfluorooctane sulfonate was determined for wild turtles (Trachemys scripta elegans and Chinemys reevesii) collected in Japan(5).
Mobility in soil
A literature review of Koc values derived from laboratory sorption experiments using a variety of soils and sediments found the average and median log Koc values for perfluorooctane sulfonic acid to be 3.0 and 2.8(1), respectively, which correspond to Koc values of 1000 and 630(SRC); the log Koc range was 2.4 to 4.7 (Koc of 250 to 50,100)(1). Partitioning experiments using three sediments taken from the Tokyo Bay, Bay determined mean log Koc values 3.4 to 3.7 for perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (Koc values of 2510 to 5010)(2). A laboratory-derived mean log Koc of 2.57 for perfluorooctanoic acid on sediments has been reported(3) corresponding to a Koc of 370(SRC). A log Koc of 3.34 (Koc of 2190) was measured for an agricultural soil from an area where municipal biosolids had been applied(4). According to a classification scheme(5), the average and mean Koc values derived in laboratory tests suggest that perfluorooctane sulfonic acid is expected to have low mobility in soil. The range of Koc values (log 2.4-4.7) suggest that perfluorooctane sulfonic acid may have moderate mobility to immobility in soil. The pKa of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid is <1.0(6), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(7). The strength of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid sorption to sediment and suspended material in water can vary depending on the nature of the sediment material with respect to pH, organic content, mineral content, salinity and other factors(1,2). Sorption in sediment was found to increase with increasing Ca(2+) and decreasing pH and be affected more by organic carbon than iron oxide content(3). In marine environments where suspended solid concentrations are low, perfluorooctane sulfonic acid may be transported in dissolved phase rather than being adsorbed to suspended solids(2). Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid is thought to adsorb strongly to soil and sediment, based on reported Kd and Freundlich adsorption coefficient values of 18.3 and 25.1, respectively, in clay; 9.72 and 14.0, respectively, in clay loam; 35.3 and 28.2, respectively, in sandy loam; and 7.42 and 8.70, respectively, in river sediment(8). A Koc of 710 was calculated for perfluorooctane sulfonic acid based on Kd values for six soils(9).

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
