Interaction between perfluorooctanoic acid and aerobic granular sludge

Water Research, 2020
The increasing use of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) raises concerns about its potential toxicity to the environment. However, the interaction between PFOA and aerobic granular sludge has never been documented. This work therefore aims to provide such support through investigating the fate of PFOA at environmentally relevant levels in aerobic granular ...

Immunometabolism-modulation and immunotoxicity evaluation of perfluorooctanoic acid in macrophage

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is one of the most commonly used perfluorinated chemicals in industry. Wide concerns of PFOA toxicity are increased in recent years. However, report on immunotoxicity of PFOA was quite limited.

Endocrine disrupting properties of perfluorooctanoic acid [PDF]

The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2011
Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) have attracted attention in recent years for their environmental ubiquity, as well as their toxicity. Several PFAAs are found in human tissues globally, as humans are exposed on a daily basis through intake of contaminated food, water, and air, irrespective of proximity to industry.
