Mass spectrometric isomer characterization of perfluorinated compounds in technical mixture, water and human blood [PDF]
, 2007 Perfluorinated compounds (PFC) are special surfactants which have been used since the 1950s. Their detection in the environment started at the beginning of the 2000s.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate affects intestinal immunity against bacterial infection
Scientific Reports, 2017 Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is an environmental contaminant that has been manufactured to be used as surfactants and repellents in industry. Due to long half-life for clearance and degradation, PFOS is accumulative in human body and has potential ...

Neonatal death of mice treated with perfluorooctane sulfonate
The Journal of Toxicological Sciences, 2008 Pregnant mice exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) causes neonatal death. Ten pregnant ICR mice per group were given 1, 10 or 20 mg/kg PFOS daily by gavage from gestational day (GD) 0 to the end of the study. Five dams per group were sacrificed on GD 18 for prenatal evaluation, the others were left to give birth.

Neuroendocrine effects of perfluorooctane sulfonate in rats. [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 2003 Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a degradation product of sulfonyl-based fluorochemicals that are used extensively in industrial and household applications. Humans and wildlife are exposed to this class of compounds from several sources. Toxicity tests in rodents have raised concerns about potential developmental, reproductive, and systemic effects ...

Associations of perfluorooctane sulfonate alternatives and serum lipids in Chinese adults
Environment International, 2021 Background: Chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonic acids (Cl-PFESAs), a group of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) alternatives, can be widely observed in humans and environmental matrices. However, associations between exposure to Cl-PFESAs and serum
