  1. 1. PFAS Contamination in Groundwater; Evaluating Factors Influencing the Impact of PFAS Contamination on the Drinking Water Source in a Holistic Approach _________________________

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Anna Söderman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :PFAS; Contamination; Firefighting Foam; Groundwater; Drinking Water; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Aqueuous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) containing Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) is one of the major sources of groundwater contamination in Sweden. Groundwater contamination caused by the use of AFFF in correlation to fire training events was investigated in Kallinge, Sweden. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The Role of Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) contaminated food for male infertility : A Scoping review

    Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för hälso- och vårdvetenskap (HV)

    Författare :Tehseen Kamran; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Per-or polyfluoroalkyl substances; diet; food; male infertility;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The trend of male infertility is increasing and it correlates with industrial development which has introduced various industrial contaminants in the environment and human life. PFASs are one of those contaminants. Humans are exposed to PFAS through various routes and sources, especially through food and diet. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Human Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl : Substances through Fish Consumption

    Master-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Welmoed Nauta; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; Human exposure; Fish consumption; Glasbruket; Target analysis; Mass balance analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Human exposure to per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) occurs mainly through two pathways, inhalation and ingestion. Dietary exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including PFAS, is driven mainly by the consumption of foods of marine or terrestrial animal origin. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Do selected CF3-containing pharmaceuticals oxidize to trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)? – Analysis of ultra-short perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) and their analytical challenges following oxidation

    Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Johanna Gillberg; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Total oxidizable precursor assay (TOPA) has been used to understand the contribution of unknown precursors to the extractable organofluorine (EOF) compounds. The investigation of compounds containing a CF3 moiety especially connected to an aromatic ring is important because any compounds with such a moiety (pharmaceuticals) may oxidize to form trifluoroacetic acid (TFA).

  7. 5. Does in vivo exposure to perfluorooctanesulfonicacid induce an altered colonic barrier function inmice?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Författare :Hanna-Dalia Laar; [2022]
    Nyckelord :PFOA; PFAS; Ulcerative colitis; colon barrier; gastrointestinal permeability; Ussing Chamber;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Several environmental risk factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis ofinflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and might cause an altered barrier function, a hallmark ofIBD. Recent evidence suggests that patients with late-onset ulcerative colitis (UC) have anincreased serum level of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), one of the major chemical groupscontaminating our diet.
