Robert C. Buck,James Franklin,Urs Berger,Jason M. Conder,Ian T. Cousins,Pim de Voogt,Allan Astrup Jensen,Kurunthachalam Kannan,Scott A. Mabury,Stefan P.J. van Leeuwen +9 more
TL;DR: An overview of PFASs detected in the environment, wildlife, and humans, and recommend clear, specific, and descriptive terminology, names, and acronyms for PFAS, can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources, fate and transport of perfluorocarboxylates.
TL;DR: Transport pathways for PFCAs in the environment were reviewed, and it was concluded that, in addition to atmospheric transport/degradation of precursors, atmospheric and ocean water transport of the PFCA themselves could significantly contribute to their long-range transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are PFCAs Bioaccumulative? A Critical Review and Comparison with Regulatory Criteria and Persistent Lipophilic Compounds
TL;DR: The bioaccumulation potential of perfluorinated acids with seven fluorinated carbons or less appears to be several orders of magnitude lower than "legacy" persistent lipophilic compounds classified as bioaccuulative.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources, Fate and Transport of Perfluorocarboxylates
TL;DR: In this paper, the sources, fate, and transport of perfluorocarboxylates (PFCAs) in the environment, with a specific focus on perfluoroctanoate (PFO).
Journal ArticleDOI
Global emission inventories for C4-C14 perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid (PFCA) homologues from 1951 to 2030, Part I: production and emissions from quantifiable sources.
TL;DR: This work quantifies global emissions of C4-C14 perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid (PFCA) homologues during the life-cycle of products based on perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA), perfLUorononanoic acid (PFNA), perfluarooctane sulfonyl fluoride (POSF), and fluorotelomer compounds, and addresses the uncertainties of the PFCA emissions by defining a lower
