Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) induces behavioural, reproductive and developmental toxicological impacts in Caenorhabditis elegans at concentrations relevant to the contaminated areas

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) induces behavioural, reproductive and developmental toxicological impacts in Caenorhabditis elegans at concentrations relevant to the contaminated areas

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a prevalent, persistent organic pollutant (POP) in the environment. The potential toxic impacts of PFOA on human and ecological health is becoming an increasing concern worldwide. In this study, we investigated the acute toxicity of PFOA in terms of growth, mortality...
