This book includes chapters on human and wildlife exposure/body burdens, reviews of metabolism and toxicological effects by organ system/developmental stage, and aspects of PFAS toxicity that are driving PFAS research and regulatory oversight. Toxicological Effects of Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances provides critical assessments of the most controversial topics surrounding toxicological evaluation of PFASs to give readers an expert perspective on the issues. Emphasis is placed on the integration of modes and mechanisms of action with functional endpoints that are relevant to human and wildlife health. This book will be a useful resource for toxicologists, environmental chemists, risk assessors, and researchers with an interest in the class of compounds known as perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances.Molecular and Integrative Toxicology,2168-4219PharmacologyEnvironmental healthEcotoxicologyPharmacology/Toxicologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007Environmental Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U18005Ecotoxicologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U25001Pharmacology.Environmental health.Ecotoxicology.Pharmacology/Toxicology.Environmental Health.Ecotoxicology.628.52DeWitt Jamie Cedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298275803321Toxicological Effects of Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances2513399UNINA
