Abstract
- The article presents the study which explores the distribution of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) levels on human liver and breast milk in Catalonia, Spain. Samples were analyzed by solid-phase extraction and ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. It notes that liver samples accumulated high PFCs and perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) concentration. It was observed in the study that PFCs are bound to the protein fraction in blood.
