Toxicity of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances to Nematodes
Toxics, 2023 Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a class of compounds that persist in the environment globally. Besides being transported to the soil and sediments, which act as their sinks, PFASs can be transferred to several species of higher organisms ...

Thermochemistry of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances
Journal of Computational Chemistry, 2022 AbstractThe determination of gas phase thermochemical properties of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is central to understanding the long‐range transport behavior of PFAS in the atmosphere. Prior gas‐phase studies have reported the properties of perfluorinated sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorinated octanoic acid (PFOA).
