Albumin is the major carrier protein for PFOS, PFOA, PFHxS, PFNA and PFDA in human plasma.
Environment International, 2020 Perfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances are widespread in the environment and in organisms. The fact that exposure to PFAS is associated with elevated cholesterol levels is a major concern for human health. Previous investigations, in which bovine serum albumin

Removal of PFOA and PFOS from water by titanium supported nano silver electrode
矿业科学学报, 2018 In order to solve the problem that Perfluorooctanoic Acid(PFOA) and Perfluorooctane Sulfonate(PFOS) in the perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances(PFASs) are difficult to be naturally degraded and impossible effectively removed by traditional ...

Redesigning an Electrochemical MIP Sensor for PFOS: Practicalities and Pitfalls
Sensors, 2019 There is a growing interest in the technological transfer of highly performing electrochemical sensors within portable analytical devices for the in situ monitoring of environmental contaminants, such as perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS).

Stroke, 2013 The optimal secondary prevention strategy in patients presenting with a cryptogenic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) and a patent foramen ovale (PFO) is uncertain. In the United States, closure of a PFO using a percutaneous transcatheter device is currently considered investigational by the Food and Drug Administration.

Electrochemical Sensing of Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) Using Ambient Oxygen in River Water.
ACS Sensors, 2020 Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are an emerging class of pervasive and harmful micropollutant. Next-generation sensors are necessary to detect PFAS at sub-nanomolar levels.

Half-lives of PFOS, PFHxS and PFOA after end of exposure to contaminated drinking water
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2017 Background Municipal drinking water contaminated with perfluorinated alkyl acids had been distributed to one-third of households in Ronneby, Sweden. The source was firefighting foam used in a nearby airfield since the mid-1980s.
