## Facts

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Description | This cluster of papers focuses on the environmental contamination, global distribution, monitoring, and toxicological findings of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). It explores their sources, fate, transport, bioaccumulation, and potential health effects on humans and wildlife. The papers also discuss exposure pathways, biological monitoring, and the presence of PFASs in various environmental compartments. |
