Non-Stick Humans: A PFAS Story, Part 6

It’s been over three years since the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) announced that PFAS testing in blood should be performed on individuals likely exposed to PFAS, such as those in impacted communities or with certain occupations. From this testing, seven individual PFAS are summed to rank an individual in three exposure categories. Advancements in sampling and instrumentation have made remote testing of PFAS and expanded analyte lists a reality. This ability to access easy PFAS testing will benefit both the individual and researchers looking to examine larger sets of data over longer periods of time than has ever been achieved before. This talk aims to illustrate the current state of biomonitoring efforts surrounding PFAS and the lessons and knowledge of PFAS in the population. Real-world cases will be examined along with updates on global biomonitoring studies.
