Preliminary investigation on cytotoxicity of fluorinated polymer nanoparticles.

Journal of environmental sciences (China)
As well-known persistent organic pollutants (POPs), organofluorine pollutants such as perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) have been proven to be bioaccumulated and harmful to health. However, toxicological assessment of organofluorinated nanoparticles, ...

Occurrence of perfluoroalkyl substances in matched human serum, urine, hair and nail.

Journal of environmental sciences (China)
The purpose of this study was to determine perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in human serum, urine, hair and nail from general populations, and to investigate the possibility for human urine, hair and nail used as the biomonitoring sample for PFASs e...

Maternal serum concentrations of perfluoroalkyl acids in five international birth cohorts.

International journal of hygiene and environmental health
BACKGROUND: Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) are persistent and bioaccumulating compounds, which are spread all over the globe. We aimed to compare the PFAA concentrations in serum from pregnant women in five birth cohorts from four countries (Denmark, C...

Determination of selected synthetic cannabinoids and their metabolites by micellar electrokinetic chromatography--mass spectrometry employing perfluoroheptanoic acid-based micellar phase.

Talanta
Perfluoroheptanoic acid was employed as a volatile micellar phase in background electrolyte for micellar electrokinetic chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry separation and determination of 15 selected naphthoyl- and phenylacetylindole- synthetic c...

Perfluorooctanoic acid-induced toxicity in primary cultures of chicken embryo cardiomyocytes.

Environmental toxicology
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a widespread environmental contaminant that induces developmental cardiotoxicity. It is detectable in late stage chicken embryos and hatchling chickens. To investigate mechanism(s) of cardiotoxicity, primary cultures ...

An automated high-throughput SPE micro-elution method for perfluoroalkyl substances in human serum.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry
An automated high-throughput solid phase extraction (SPE) micro-elution method for 8 perfluorosulfonic acids, 11 perfluorocarboxylic acids and fluorooctane sulfonamide in human serum was developed. Importance was attached to the application of small ...

Design Space Exploration and Machine Learning Prediction of Hydrofluorocarbon Solubility in Ionic Liquids for Refrigerant Separation.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Ionic liquids (ILs) are promising solvents for the separation of hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) mixtures due to their tunable solvation properties and negligible vapor pressure. We present a computational study of -32 and -125 solubility in over 341,000 ILs...

Prediction of bioconcentration factors (BCFs) and bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) using Read-Across and q-RASPR.

The Science of the total environment
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) contamination poses an environmental concern due to their ability to bioaccumulate in aquatic species and adversely impact human health. Experimental bioconcentration factor (log BCF) data of freshwater fis...

Association between prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and blood pressure among preschool-aged children: The moderating effect of child-age and the mediating effect of inflammatory cytokine.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety
Our aim is to evaluate the association of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) with offspring blood pressure (BP); examine the moderating effect of children's age; and the mediating effects of inflammatory cytokines. Data o...

Assessing the effect of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances on cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome: Insights from an interpretable machine learning model.

The Science of the total environment
Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome (CKM) and its association with exposure to emerging pollutants, particularly perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), present significant challenges for environmental public health and risk predic...
