Journal ArticleDOI
A global survey of perfluorinated acids in oceans.
Nobuyoshi Yamashita,Kurunthachalam Kannan,Sachi Taniyasu,Yuichi Horii,Gert Petrick,Toshitaka Gamo +5 more
TL;DR: The research group has developed a reliable and highly sensitive analytical method by which to monitor perfluorinated compounds in oceanic waters that was applied to seawater samples collected during several international research cruises undertaken during 2002-2004.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of perfluorooctane sulfonate and related perfluorinated organic compounds in water, fish, birds, and humans from Japan.
TL;DR: In this study, concentrations and distribution of PFOS, perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHS), and perfluorobutane sulf onates (PFBS) were determined in samples of surface water, fish and bird blood and livers, and human blood collected in Japan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Perfluorinated Acids at Parts-Per-Quadrillion Levels in Seawater Using Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Nobuyoshi Yamashita,Kurunthachalam Kannan,Sachi Taniyasu,Yuichi Horii,Tsuyoshi Okazawa,Gert Petrick,Toshitaka Gamo +6 more
TL;DR: Sources of procedural and instrumental blank contamination by perfluorinated acids have been identified and eliminated, to reduce background levels in blanks and thereby improve limits of quantitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survey of Organosilicone Compounds, Including Cyclic and Linear Siloxanes, in Personal-Care and Household Products
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that a wide variety of consumer products that are used on a daily basis contain cyclic and linear siloxanes and these products can contribute considerably to human exposures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Partitioning Behavior of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Compounds between Pore Water and Sediment in Two Sediment Cores from Tokyo Bay, Japan
Lutz Ahrens,Nobuyoshi Yamashita,Leo W. Y. Yeung,Sachi Taniyasu,Yuichi Horii,Paul K.S. Lam,Ralf Ebinghaus +6 more
TL;DR: The partitioning behavior of per- and polyfluoroalkyl compounds between pore water and sediment in two sediment cores collected from Tokyo Bay, Japan, was investigated and the perfluorocarbon chain length and functional group were identified as the dominating parameters.
