Understanding Sources of Perfluorinated Acids to Biological Systems
The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the fate of perfluorinated alkyl compounds (PFCs) in biological systems. During the past several years, it has been shown that wildlife are ubiquitously contaminated with two classes of PFCs, the perfluoroalkyl carboxylates (CxF2x+1C(O)OH, PFCAs) an...
