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.

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.
-
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.

The occurrence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in fluoropolymer raw materials and products made in China
Science
25 Aug 2021 | J Environ Sci (China)
Generally, the levels of PFOA in raw materials were higher than in products, implying that PFOA in the emulsion/dispersion resin could be partly removed during the polymerization or post-processing steps.

External and internal human exposure to PFOA and HFPOs around a mega fluorochemical industrial park, China: Differences and implications
Science
25 Aug 2021 | Environ Int
PFAS were detected in human hair, and their compositions were similar to those in human serum, suggesting that hair is a good non-invasive indicator for long-term exposure to legacy long-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids and HFPOs.
