PERFLUOROOCTANE SULPHONIC ACID (PFOS) AND PERFLUOROOCTANOIC ACID (PFOA) IN HUMAN BLOOD SAMPLES FROM GREECE

摘要：

Perfluorinated compounds such as PFOS and PFOA have been used in a wide variety of consumer applications for many years and are now found in many environmental matrices. The exposure of humans to these compounds has led to their presence in human blood. We undertook a study of the concentrations of PFOS and PFOA in blood serum samples from 56 healthy adults belonging to the general population of Athens. The results showed the presence of both analytes in all samples measured. Their levels were in accordance with similar results from other countries. A significant difference was observed between the values of both PFOS and PFOA between male and female participants, while only in PFOS concentrations was there a difference among the three age groups studied.
