    • The high persistence of PFAS is sufficient for their management as a chemical class 

      Cousins, Ian T.; Dewitt, Jamie C.; Glüge, Juliane; Goldenman, Gretta; Herzke, Dorte; Lohmann, Rainer; Ng, Carla A.; Scheringer, Martin; Wang, Zhanyun (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-29)
      Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of synthetic organic substances with diverse structures, properties, uses, bioaccumulation potentials and toxicities. Despite this high diversity, all PFAS are alike in that they contain perfluoroalkyl moieties that are extremely resistant to environmental and metabolic degradation. The vast majority of PFAS are therefore either non-degradable ...

    • An overview of the uses of per- And polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) 

      Glüge, Juliane; Scheringer, Martin; Cousins, Ian T.; Dewitt, Jamie C.; Goldenman, Gretta; Herzke, Dorte; Lohmann, Rainer; Ng, Carla A.; Trier, Xenia; Wang, Zhanyun (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-30)
      Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are of concern because of their high persistence (or that of their degradation products) and their impacts on human and environmental health that are known or can be deduced from some well-studied PFAS. Currently, many different PFAS (on the order of several thousands) are used in a wide range of applications, and there is no comprehensive source of information ...
