This data article includes details on the simple and efficient analytical methods used to measure perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in water, soil, produce from home gardens Minnesota. PFASs water were analyzed via direct injection. extracted homogenized soil using sonication, dispersive solid phase extraction. Isotope dilution was for quantitation all methods. The method performance parameters quality control measures are described. described applicable a PFAS ranging C4-C8 wide variety of...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of human-made persistent, bioaccumulative, toxic compounds. People can be exposed to PFAS through many different pathways, including food, drinking water, PFAS-containing consumer products. Infants recognized as particularly susceptible the harmful effects while also being among most highly populations. Exposure begins in utero via placental transfer continue after birth from environmental exposures breastfeeding. PFAS-contaminated if...
