Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) induced embryotoxicity and disruption of cardiogenesis

Toxicology in Vitro, 2013
Prenatal exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is correlated with birth defects and adverse health effects. However, the mechanisms remain largely unknown. In current study, the embryonic stem cell test (EST) was performed to evaluate the embryotoxicity of PFOS, and embryonic stem cells (ESCs)-derived cardiomyocytes were used as a model of the ...

Sorption of perfluorooctane sulfonate to carbon nanotubes in aquatic sediments

Chemosphere, 2013
To date, sorption of organic compounds to nanomaterials has mainly been studied for the nanomaterial in its pristine state. However, sorption may be different when nanomaterials are buried in sediments. Here, we studied sorption of Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) to sediment and to sediment with 4% multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), as a function ...

Partitioning Characteristics of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate Between Water and Foods

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2011
As 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 ...

The interaction of perfluorooctane sulfonate with hemoglobin: Influence on protein stability

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2016
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is among the most prominent xenobiotics contaminants in human blood. To evaluate the toxicity of PFOS at the protein level, the influences of PFOS on the stability and conformation of hemoglobin (Hb) has been investigated by circular dichroism (CD), UV-vis, and fluorescence spectroscopic methods and molecular modeling ...

Migration characteristics and toxic effects of perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorobutane sulfonate in tobacco

Science of The Total Environment
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and its new substitute, perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), are increasing in concentration in the environment annually, and their toxicity cannot be ignored. With an increasing amount of PFOS and PFBS entering the environment, especially into farmland soil, it is very likely to pollute tobacco-planting soil.

Thyroid disruption by perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA)

Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 2016
Perfluorooctane 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.

Technical-grade perfluorooctane sulfonate alters the expression of more transcripts in cultured chicken embryonic hepatocytes than linear perfluorooctane sulfonate

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.

Effect of humic acid on the sorption of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS) on boehmite

Chemosphere, 2015
The sorption of PFOS and PFBS on boehmite was significantly retarded by the competitive sorption of humic acid (HA), implying that PFOS and PFBS are likely more mobile in water and groundwater systems enriched with HA. The sorption behavior of PFOS and PFBS on the HA-modified boehmite surface were also found to differ due to their different chain ...
