Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) crossing the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier: Their occurrence in human cerebrospinal fluid
Science
15 Sep 2022 | J Hazard Mater
New and legacy PFAS were found cerebrospinal fluid at levels lower than in blood, though levels were higher in the elderly compared with other age groups.

Prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and childhood adiposity at 7 years of age
Science
21 Aug 2022 | Chemosphere
Prenatal exposure to individual PFAS and mixtures was associated with higher weights in girls and lower weights in boys.

Suspect screening and nontargeted analysis of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in representative fluorocarbon surfactants, aqueous film-forming foams, and impacted water in China
Science
9 Jul 2022 | Environ. Int.
69 PFAS were identified in Chinese fluorosurfactants such as those used in aqueous film-forming foams, and high concentrations of neutral PFAS were found in polymer-based products.

Co-exposure to perfluoroalkyl acids and heavy metals mixtures associated with impaired kidney function in adults: A community-based population study in China
Science
6 Jun 2022 | Sci Total Environ
Co-exposure to PFAS and heavy metals was associated with reduced kidney function, especially due to As, Sr, and PFHpS.

Perfluorinated alkyl substances in Canadian human milk as part of the Maternal-Infant Research on Environmental Chemicals (MIREC) study
Science
12 Apr 2022 | Sci Total Environ
Primiparous women had elevated PFAS concentrations in milk relative to women who had children previously, and the region of material birth did not influence PFAS concentrations.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the blood of police and Beagle dogs from Harbin, China: Concentrations and associations with hematological parameters
Science
28 Mar 2022 | Chemosphere
Dominant PFAS in the blood of dogs were found to be PFOA, PFBA, and PFOS, and PFAS exposure was linked to many changes in biochemical blood parameters like cholesterol.

Prenatal Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Child Growth Trajectories in the First Two Years
Science
22 Mar 2022 | EHP
Associations of PFAS with child growth trajectory differed by sex as well as by when and at what concentration exposure occurred.

Legacy and Emerging Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances Behave Distinctly in Spatial Distribution and Multimedia Partitioning: A Case Study in the Pearl River, China
Science
7 Mar 2022 | Environ Sci Technol
Factors influencing PFAS partitioning and bioaccumulation were examined, and the emerging PFAS notably had higher bioaccumulation factors than legacy PFAS containing the same perfluorinated carbons.

Exposure of Preconception Couples to Legacy and Emerging Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances: Variations Within and Between Couples
Science
16 Jan 2022 | Environ Sci Technol
Individual PFAS were generally correlated within couples though men often exhibited higher plasma concentrations, and PFAS exposure between different couples depended on annual household income, dwelling floor type, drinking water source, and living near farmlands.

Distribution, sources, and dietetic-related health risk assessment of perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in the agricultural environment of an industrial-agricultural interaction region (IAIR), Changshu, East China
Science
20 Dec 2021 | Sci Total Environ
Textiles and food industries may contribute to PFAAs in agricultural environments, which can lead to high PFAS contamination in local fish and vegetables.
-
Association between maternal serum concentration of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) at delivery and acute infectious diseases in infancy
Science
20 Dec 2021 | Chemosphere
Prenatal exposure to PFAS was associated with increased risks of diarrhea during the first year of life, and these effects were stronger among breastfed infants.
-
Distribution, source identification and health risk assessment of PFASs in groundwater from Jiangxi Province, China
Science
30 Nov 2021 | Chemosphere
Monitoring in China suggests that PFBA, PFPeA, 6:2 FTS and F–53B are broadly used replacements of PFOA and PFOS with estimated daily intakes of short-chain PFCAs higher than that of PFOA.
-
Prenatal exposure to poly-/per-fluoroalkyl substances is associated with alteration of lipid profiles in cord-blood
Science
30 Nov 2021 | Metabolomics
Prenatal PFAS exposure may explain associations between PFAS exposure and adverse health conditions later in life, such as type 2 diabetes.
