MD80 performance penalties from de-/anti-icing fluids

Hi all,

This is probably more operational than technical but it's the only place I found to stick it in so here goes:

I've been rumaging through AFMs, FCOMs and OMBs for days now without finding anything on potential performance penalties from de and anti icing fluids.
I know other aircraft types have this and I susspect the MD would too. However, I'm not sure if there has been any testing done on it.

Any of you folks out there with any experience or knowledge of this? MDC/Boeing directives or company developed info, anything at all!

Cheers!
Knold
