Perfluorooctane sulfonates

Several studies have suggested that some critical adverse effects like peroxisome proliferation, hepatotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and developmental toxicity may be associated with chemical exposure to PFCs, particularly to PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate) and PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid), two ubiquitous persistent organic pollutants with possible environmental and human health risks.

Perfluoroalkyl compounds have been manufactured since the 1950s.The total production of fluorinated surfactants (anionic, cationic and neutral) was 2001 in 1979, whereas in 2000 the total production of PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate) alone was nearly 3000t (Shoeib et al., 2004). Together with PFOA (perfluoroocta-noic acid), PFOS is used in refrigerants, surfactants, fire retardants, stain-resistant coatings for fabrics, carpets and paper and insecticides. Surface treatments, such as protection of clothing and carpets constitute the largest volume of PFOS production (Moriwaki, Takata and Arakawa, 2003). PFOA as well is present in several... [Pg.246]

The fourth report, to be released in 2007, will include nearly 300 analytes. A high-priority dataset of chemicals—including speciated forms of arsenic, perchlorate, PBDEs, and perfluorooctane sulfonate, and other perfluorinated compounds—may be released in 2006 to assist with regulatory decisions (James Pirkle, CDC, personal commun., June 21, 2005).

This chapter focuses on the 12 most toxic POPs subject to control of the Stockholm Convention. It is recognized that there are other POPs which have been demonstrated to elicit adverse effects of toxicological significance on human health and the environment, for which international agreement has yet to be reached on their inclusion in the Convention list. Indeed, five new POPs candidates (hexabromobiphenyl (6-PBB), pent-abromodiphenyl ether (PBDE), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), chlordecone and lindane) were proposed and considered at the First Meeting of the POPs Review Committee of the Stockholm Convention in November 2005 (UNEP, 2005). The challenge is for the local scientific... [Pg.364]

More recently, perfluorinated sulfonates, such as perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), have attracted attention because of their resistance to biodegradation and the practically ubiquitous exposure of humans and wildlife to these compounds. From the analytical point of view, these compounds can also be determined by LC-MS with negative ion-ESI187 or by GC/MS after derivatization.188... [Pg.333]
