Analysis of Perfluorinated Compounds in Water

Introduction

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) have received lots of attention recently due to their resistance to degradation in the environment. Reports of their occurrence in tap water, food or even human blood have led to concerns of their impact on the human body as pollutants. To better understand their effect on the environment it is critical to analyze PFASs in biological and environmental matrices.
