HFPO-Amidol (CAS # 75888-49-2) is a new hexafluoropropylene oxide (HFPO)-based intermediate developed as an alternative to longer chain perfluorinated compounds. The repeated-dose toxicity of this material was evaluated in an Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development 422-compliant, 28-day oral exposure study with a concurrent reproductive/developmental toxicity screening test. Wistar rats received doses of 0, 30, 300, or 1000 mg/kg/d by oral gavage.

A two-generation reproductive rat study has been conducted with potassium PFBS (K(+)PFBS). Parental-generation (P) rats were dosed orally by gavage with 0, 30, 100, 300 and 1000mg K(+)PFBS/kg/day for 10 weeks prior to and through mating (males and females), as well as during gestation and lactation (females only).
