The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Mediates the Neurodevelopmental Toxicity of Perfluorooctane Sulfonamide in Zebrafish Larvae [PDF]
ToxicsPerfluorooctane sulfonamide (PFOSA), the direct precursor to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), is widely present in the environment. Research has indicated that PFOSA is cardiotoxic and hepatotoxic, but its impact on neurodevelopment remains unclear.
