Some important organofluorine compounds. A: fluoromethane B: isoflurane C: a CFC D: an HFC E: triflic acid F: Teflon G: PFOS H: fluorouracil I: fluoxetine Organofluorine chemistry describes the chemistry of organofluorine compounds, organic compounds that contain a carbon–fluorine bond.
The purpose statement of the agreement is "to protect human health and the environment from persistent organic pollutants." As of 2024, there are 185 countries plus the European Union have ratified the Stockholm Convention. [20] The convention and its participants have recognized the potential human and environmental toxicity of POPs.
Many gases have toxic properties, which are often assessed using the LC 50 (median lethal concentration) measure. In the United States, many of these gases have been assigned an NFPA 704 health rating of 4 (may be fatal) or 3 (may cause serious or permanent injury), and/or exposure limits (TLV, TWA/PEL, STEL, or REL) determined by the ACGIH professional association.

Food products and household items commonly handled by humans can be toxic to dogs. The symptoms can range from simple irritation to digestion issues, behavioral changes, and even death. The categories of common items ingested by dogs include food products, human medication, household detergents, indoor and outdoor toxic plants, and rat poison. [1]
The EPA issued health advisories for four specific PFASs in June 2022, significantly lowering their safe threshold levels for drinking water. PFOA was reduced from 70 ppt to 0.004 ppt, while PFOS was reduced from 70 ppt to 0.02 ppt. A safe level for the compound GenX was set at 10 ppt, while that for PFBS was set at 2000 ppt. While not ...
In humans, PFHxS binds to blood albumin, [8] and relatively little PFHxS is found in the liver compared to longer chain PFASs such as PFOS. [9] The half-life of PFHxS in adult blood serum is 5.3 years (4.7 years for women and 7.4 years for men). [10] The half-life of PFASs in human blood generally decreases with decreasing backbone (CF 2) length.
A paleontologist hailed the discovery as "truly an unusual find," adding it helped explain the relationships in the prehistoric food chain.
