“…Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of man-made chemicals that have been used in industrial processes and consumer products, including surfactants, surface-protecting agents, and processing aids to produce polymers. They have been detected ubiquitously in the aquatic environment (Gawor et al, 2014;Rankin, Mabury, Jenkins, & Washington, 2016), biota, and humans (Ahrens & Bundschuh, 2014;Vestergren & Cousins, 2009).
