Background The presence of perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), perfluorohexanesulfonate
(PFHS), and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) has been reported in humans and wildlife.
Pharmacokinetic differences have been observed in laboratory animals. Objective The
purpose of this observational study was to estimate the elimination half-life of PFOS, PFHS,
and PFOA from human serum. Methods Twenty-six (24 male, 2 female) retired
fluorochemical production workers, with no additional occupational exposure, had periodic …
