“…Contamination of agricultural soil with PFAS can occur as a result of direct soil contamination, e.g., by fluorochemical industrial plants [82] or aqueous film-forming foams [83] through the use of biosolids [84] or contaminated irrigation water [31,85]. Consumption of contaminated food and drinking water is regarded as the main pathway of human exposure [86,87], especially the consumption of fish, meat, and eggs [88]. Several studies have examined the risks associated with PFAS exposure through contaminated food and water [89].…”

Due to their unique properties, perfluorinated substances (PFAS) are widely used in multiple industrial and commercial applications, but they are toxic for animals, humans included. This review presents some available data on the PFAS environmental distribution in the world, and in particular in Europe and in the Veneto region of Italy, where it has become a serious problem for human health. The consumption of contaminated food and drinking water is considered one of the major source of exposure for humans. Worldwide epidemiological studies report the negative effects that PFAS have on human health, due to environmental pollution, including infertility, steroid hormone perturbation, thyroid, liver and kidney disorders, and metabolic disfunctions. In vitro and in vivo researches correlated PFAS exposure to oxidative stress effects (in mammals as well as in other vertebrates of human interest), produced by a PFAS-induced increase of reactive oxygen species formation. The cellular antioxidant defense system is activated by PFAS, but it is only partially able to avoid the oxidative damage to biomolecules.

“…Sorption may also play a role. PFOS and other long-chain peruoroalkyl acids sorb stronger to organic solids than some of their short-chain analogues; [25][26][27] for instance, average observed organic carbon partition coefficient, K oc of PFOS and PFBS is 3.0 and 2.2, respectively. 28,29 Thus one would expect long-chain PFASs to leach slower than short-chain PFASs.…”
