Cuffney, M., Wilkie, A. A., Kotlarz, N., Knappe, D., Lea, C. S., Collier, D. N., … Hoppin, J. A. (2023, September 4). Environmental Research, Vol. 237.
author keywords: Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS); Fluoroethers; Contaminated drinking water; Environmental exposure predictors
MeSH headings : Male; Humans; Drinking Water / chemistry; North Carolina; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Fluorocarbons; Alkanesulfonic Acids / analysis; Environmental Pollutants / analysis
topics (OpenAlex): Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances research; Toxic Organic Pollutants Impact; Air Quality and Health Impacts
TL;DR:
It is shown that drinking water is a primary source for serum PFAS concentrations among New Hanover County residents and years of residence in the lower Cape Fear Region as a surrogate for water consumption were important for both the association and predictive investigations.
