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 ...

Isomer-specific binding affinity of perfluoroalkyl substances with red blood cells
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safetys: Wide presence of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in human blood has attracted great attention. Interactions of PFASs with serum proteins have been well investigated, but with red blood cells (RBCs), a nonnegligible cellular constituent of blood ...

Integrated Environmental Assessment and ManagementAbstract Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorohexane sulfonate are frequently detected in environmental media at and near locations where per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances have been released. Because of their persistence and relatively high bioaccumulation potential as well as the frequency and magnitude of detection at ...
