Abstract

Fish and seafood are considered a major source of human dietary exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). In this study, we examined levels of 35 PFAS in fish samples of brown trout and mottled sculpin, which occupy different trophic positions, collected in 2014 from East Canyon Creek in Utah, USA. We observed 20 PFAS with ∑₂₀PFAS ranging from 0.46-63.9 ng/g and from

东峡谷溪是美国犹他州一条季节性污水为主的河流，其不同营养位置的鱼类中全氟和多氟烷基物质（PFAS）的积累

鱼类和海产品被认为是人类从饮食中接触全氟烷基和多氟烷基物质的主要来源。在这项研究中，我们检测了2014年在美国犹他州东峡谷溪采集的处于不同营养位置的褐鳟鱼和斑驳鱼样本中35种PFAS的水平。共观察到20个PFAS，∑20PFAS范围为0.46 ~ 63.9 ng/g
