CONCENTRATIONS OF PERFLUORINATED COMPOUNDS IN SERUM ARE ASSOCIATED WITH SEAFOOD CONSUMPTION IN A NORWEGIAN COHORT

摘要：

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) were determined in 175 serum samples from a group of Norwegians with a broad range of seafood consumption. The PFC concentrations measured were in close agreement with what has been found in other studies in Norway. Significantly higher concentrations of most PFCs were found in men compared to women and the concentrations increased with increasing age. Significant positive bivariate associations were found between consumption of lean fish and fish liver, and determined concentrations of PFCs in the serum samples. Significant correlations were also found between serum concentrations of PFCs and polychlorinated biphenyls, indicating similar exposure sources for these compounds.
