Apparent Half-Lives of Chlorinated-Perfluorooctane Sulfonate and Perfluorooctane Sulfonate Isomers in Aviation Firefighters

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology, 2022
Elevated levels of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and elevated detection frequency of chloro-substituted PFOS have been reported in Australian firefighters with historical exposure to aqueous-film forming foam (AFFF). The aim of this study is to estimate the apparent half-lives of Cl-PFOS and PFOS isomers in firefighters following the end of exposure

Sorption of perfluorooctane sulfonate on organo-montmorillonites

open access: yesChemosphere, 2010
Perfluorinated compound as one of the emerging pollutants has caused great attention in recent years. In this study, the organo-montmorillonites (organo-Mts) with different amounts and arrangements of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HDTMAB) were prepared as effective sorbents for PFOS removal from water.

Effects of perfluorobutane sulfonate and perfluorooctane sulfonate on lipid homeostasis in mouse liver

Environmental Pollution, 2022
Perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), an alternative to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), has been increasingly used in recent years. However, emerging evidence has raised concerns about the potential health risks of PFBS. Here, the toxicityof low-dose PFBS on livers was explored and compared with that of PFOS.

Partitioning of perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctane sulfonamide (PFOSA) between water and sediment

open access: yesChemosphere, 2011
Laboratory partitioning experiments were conducted to elucidate the sorption behaviour and partitioning of perfluoroalkyl compounds (PFCs). Three different sediment types were used and separately spiked with perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctane sulfonamide (PFOSA) at low environmentally realistic ...

Seizurogenic effect of perfluorooctane sulfonate in zebrafish larvae

NeuroToxicology, 2022
While the developmental neurotoxicity of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has been reported, its seizurogenic potential has not been investigated. Behavior assessment was conducted in zebrafish larvae exposed to PFOS at concentrations of 0, 0.1, 1, 5, 10, and 20 μM.

Reductive Defluorination of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate

Environmental Science & Technology, 2008
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is under increased scrutiny as an environmental pollutant due to recent reports of its worldwide distribution, environmental persistence, and bioaccumulation potential. The susceptibility of technical PFOS and PFOS branched isomers to chemical reductive dehalogenation with vitamin B12 (260 microM) as catalyst and Ti(III)

Accumulation of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate in Marine Mammals

Environmental Science & Technology, 2001
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a perfluorinated molecule that has recently been identified in the sera of nonindustrially exposed humans. In this study, 247 tissue samples from 15 species of marine mammals collected from Florida, California, and Alaskan coastal waters; and northern Baltic Sea; the Arctic (Spitsbergen); and Sable Island in Canada ...

Global Distribution of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate in Wildlife

Environmental Science & Technology, 2001
Here we report, for the first time, on the global distribution of perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), a fluorinated organic contaminant. PFOS was measured in the tissues of wildlife, including, fish, birds, and marine mammals. Some of the species studied include bald eagles, polar bears, albatrosses, and various species of seals.
