Description

Study of the environmental distribution of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) using innovative analytical techniques. The research program will include field activities for the collection of samples from different environmental matrices, including biological matrices, comparing areas exposed to PFAS sources with areas free from known PFAS sources. The collected samples will then be extracted and analyzed using high-resolution LC-MS techniques. The data obtained from the analyses will be processed to study the environmental transport and accumulation of PFAS.
