REPRODUCTIVE healthThe article reports on the effects of perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) to women's fertility. Accordingly, a study was conducted by the researchers from the University of California in Los, Angeles suggests that PFCs have the capacity to reduce fertility in women. Th...
Exposure to BFRs and/or PFCs may result in serious health effects, including endocrine disruption, reproductive and immune dysfunction, birth defects, developmental neurotoxicity, and certain types of cancers. Exposure to BFRs and PFCs in farm animals is of great concern because these compounds can ...
Our nationwide cohort data suggest an inverse association between maternal plasma PFOA levels and birth weight. Because of widespread exposure to these chemicals, our findings may be of potential public health concern. 展开 关键词: Birth Weight Cord Blood Length of Gestation Low Birth Weight Maternal...

The widespread detection of perfluorinated acids (PFAs) in humans and known developmental toxicity in animals has raised concern about their potential effects on human reproductive health. Our objective was to determine whether increasing maternal exposu

In 2008, an exposure assessment was made on dietary uptake of PFOS and PFOA in connection with possible health effects. The report was based on published data concerning concentrations of PFOS and PFOA in various foods in Europe and on the amount of the individual foods consumed according to th...
Hui Li3, Stephen A. Boyd3 & Cheng Gu1 Here we describe a unique process that achieves complete defluorination and decomposition of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) which comprise one of the most recalcitrant and widely distributed classes of toxic pollutant chemicals found in natural environm...
