In this study, serum and urine samples were collected from 36 occupational workers in a fluorochemical manufacturing plant in China from 2008 to 2012 to evaluate the body burden and possible elimination of linear and branched perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs). Indoor dust, total suspended particles (TSP), diet, and drinking water samples were also collected to trace the occupational exposure pathway to PFAA isomers. The geometric mean concentrations of perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS…

Investigation of associations between serum perfluoroalkyl acid concentrations in children aged 4, 8, and 12 years and exposure via placental transfer, breast-feeding, and ingestion of PFAA-contaminated drinking water found early life exposure to PFOA, PFHxS, and PFOS is an important determinant of serum concentrations inChildren, with the strongest influence on younger ages.
