Abstract

Highlights: [•] Elimination half-life of PFHxA determined from blood of ski wax technicians. [•] Geomean human elimination half-life of PFHxA is 32d (range 14–49d). [•] Elimination half-life of PFHxA in mammalian species is proportional to body weight. [•] Rate of PFHxA elimination from mammals is useful for subsequent risk assessment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
