Half-lives of PFOS, PFHxS and PFOA after end of exposure to contaminated drinking water

Ying Li, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the rates of decline in serum perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS), perfluorooctane alkyl acids (PFOS) and PFFOA, and their corresponding half-lives were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apparent half-lives of hepta- to decabrominated diphenyl ethers in human serum as determined in occupationally exposed workers

Kaj Thuresson, +5 more
- 01 Feb 2006 - 
TL;DR: The results of this study imply that humans must be more or less continuously exposed to BDE-209 to sustain the serum concentrations observed, and human health risk must be assessed accordingly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and bioaccumulative hydroxylated PBDE metabolites in young humans from Managua, Nicaragua.

Maria Athanasiadou, +4 more
- 21 Nov 2007 - 
TL;DR: Unexpectedly, very high levels of PBDEs were found in children from an urban area in a developing country, and for the first time, hydroxylated PBDE metabolites were found to bioaccumulate in human serum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exposure to polybrominated diphenyl ethers and tetrabromobisphenol A among computer technicians.

Kristina Jakobsson, +5 more
- 01 Feb 2002 - 
TL;DR: It is evident that PBDEs used in computers and electronics, including the fully brominated BDE-209, contaminate the work environment and accumulate in the workers tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased Kidney Function Among Agricultural Workers in El Salvador

Sandra Peraza, +8 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: Agricultural work on lowland sugarcane and cotton plantations was associated with decreased kidney function in men and women, possibly related to strenuous work in hot environments with repeated volume depletion.
