Abstract | Fluorocarbons are fluorinated organic molecules widely used in industry and commerce. Nomenclature has changed over the years, with PFAS becoming the accepted umbrella term. The environment is heavily polluted with these toxins. Worldwide research shows that they contribute to almost every chronic disease. The primary source of human contamination is food packaging. There are significant concerns that the available research has not adequately addressed ultrashort-chain PFAS, which are breakdown products of longer-chain versions and accumulate in the environment at almost 100 times higher concentrations than the longer-chain versions. |
