Can Bees Detect Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS)?
Environmental Toxicology and ChemistryAbstract The European honey bee (Apis mellifera) is an important crop pollinator threatened by multiple stressors, including exposure to contaminants. Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent global contaminant that accumulates and biomagnifies in food chains and is detected in honey.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate induces neuronal vulnerability by decreasing GluR2 expression
Archives of Toxicology, 2016Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent environmental contaminant. Although studies have described PFOS-induced neurotoxicity in animal brains and neuronal cells, the molecular mechanisms of PFOS-induced neurotoxicity based on the distribution properties, especially during developmental periods, have not been clarified.

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2011
Abstract Recently it was discovered that the perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) detected in wildlife, such as fish-eating birds, had a greater proportion of linear PFOS (L-PFOS) than the manufactured technical product (T-PFOS), which contains linear and branched isomers.

Sorption of perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctanoate on activated sludge
Chemosphere, 2010Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) as one class of emerging pollutants have caused great attention in recent years. In this study, activated sludge was used to adsorb perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) in aqueous solution in order to investigate their sorption behavior and possible uptake mechanism in wastewater treatment ...

Partitioning Characteristics of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate Between Water and Foods
Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2011As a persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic organic pollutant, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has been found ubiquitously in the environment, including in tap water. For the first time, we studied PFOS sorption from water to foods (nine commonly consumed vegetables, three meats, and cereals) at two temperatures to estimate the daily intake of PFOS ...

Thyroid disruption by perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA)
Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 2016Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) are two fluorinated compounds widely used in industry because of their useful chemical characteristics. They were identified as endocrine disruptors due to their ability to interfere with thyroid function.

Perfluorooctane sulfonamide (PFOSA), a typical perfluorooctane sulfonate precursor (PreFOS), has been detected in the aquatic environment globally. However, the effects of PFOSA at levels measured in the environment have not been well characterized in aquatic organisms.
