In 2015, thirteen per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), including perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHxS), perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), perfluorononanoate (PFNA), perfluorodecanoate (PFDA) were analyzed in human plasma that collected from a total of 616 American Red Cross male female blood donors (ages 20-69) at 6 regional collection centers. Plasma samples using validated solvent precipitation-isotope dilution direction-liquid chromatography tandem mass...
Here we characterize the germinal epithelia of both sexes Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis, green sea urchin, throughout its annual gametogenic cycle, using light and electron microscopy cytochemistry. In sexes, include two interacting cellular populations: nutritive phagocytes (NPs) germ cells. After spring spawning, NPs accumulate nutrients; amitotic oogonia often mitotic spermatogonia occur in clusters beneath NPs; subsequent stages are residual or absent. During summer, NP nutrients...
A novel, efficient, fully validated solvent precipitation-isotope dilution-direct injection-LC/MS/MS method for 35 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in serum plasma.
