Perfluorooctanoic Acid

open access: yes, 2014
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA, 335-67-1) is used in fluoropolymer production and firefighting foams and persists in the environment. Human exposure to PFOA is mostly through the diet. PFOA primarily affects the liver and can cause developmental and reproductive toxic effects in test animals.

Photo-reductive defluorination of perfluorooctanoic acid in water

Water Research, 2010
Globally distributed and highly stable, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has prompted much concern regarding its accumulation in the natural environment and its threats to ecosystems. Therefore, it is desirable to develop an effective treatment against PFOA pollution. In this study, a photo-reduction method is developed and evaluated for the decomposition

Investigating the biodegradability of perfluorooctanoic acid

Chemosphere, 2010
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is an industrial chemical that has become disseminated globally in aquatic and terrestrial habitats, humans, and wildlife. Understanding PFOA's biodegradability (susceptibility to microbial metabolic attack) is a crucial element in developing an informed strategy for predicting and managing this compound's environmental ...

Potential enzyme toxicity of perfluorooctanoic acid

Amino Acids, 2008
Using equilibrium dialysis, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and circular dichroism (CD), the interactions of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and lysozyme were investigated under normal human physiological conditions, i.e., at pH 4.40, 6.00 and 7.40 at 37 degrees C in 0.15 M electrolyte.

Assessment of perfluorooctanoic acid toxicity in pancreatic cells

Toxicology in Vitro, 2021
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) was classified as a possible carcinogen for humans (Group 2B). The in vivo studies have reported that PFOA might lead to hepatic, testicular and pancreatic toxicities and cancers. However, its mechanisms in pancreatic tissue are still unclear and insufficiently discussed.
