Journal ArticleDOI

Biomagnification of Perfluoroalkyl Compounds in the Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) Food Web

TL;DR: The results indicate that using plasma and liver PFC concentrations as surrogate to whole body burden in a top marine predator overestimates the BMFs and TMFs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyfluoroalkyl compounds in free-ranging bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) from the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean.

TL;DR: Concentrations of several PFAs were negatively associated with age in animals from IRL and Charleston, and an increase in PFA concentrations was associated with a decrease of blubber thickness in Animals from Sarasota Bay and IRL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of in vitro cytotoxicity, estrogenicity and anti-estrogenicity of triclosan, perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctanoic acid.

TL;DR: The overall results demonstrated that triclosan, PFOS and PFOA have estrogenic activities and that co‐exposure to contaminants and E2 produced anti‐estrogenic effects, which could provide a source of xenoestrogens to humans and wildlife in the environment.
