Linking Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in House Dust and Biomonitoring Data in Eight Impacted Communities
Open accessAbstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are widely used in industry and have been linked to various adverse health effects. Communities adjacent to sites where PFAS are manufactured, stored, or used may be at elevated risk. In these impacted communities, significant exposure often occurs through contaminated drinking water, yet less is known about the role of other pathways such as residential exposure through house dust. We analyzed a paired serum and house dust dataset from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry's PFAS Exposure Assessments, which sampled eight United States communities with a history of drinking water contamination due to aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) use at nearby military bases. We found that serum PFAS levels of residents were significantly positively associated with the dust PFAS levels in their homes, for three of seven PFAS analyzed, when accounting for site and participant age. We also found that increased dust PFAS levels were associated with a shift in the relative abundance of PFAS in serum towards those chemicals not strongly linked to AFFF contamination, which may suggest household sources. Additionally, we analyzed participant responses to exposure questionnaires to identify factors associated with dust PFAS levels. Dust PFAS levels for some analytes were significantly elevated in households where participants were older and had lived at the home longer, cleaned less frequently, used stain resistant products, and had carpeted living rooms. Our results suggest that residential exposure to PFAS via dust or other indoor pathways may contribute to overall exposure and body burden, even in communities impacted by AFFF contamination of drinking water, and the magnitude of this exposure may also be influenced by demographic, behavioral, and housing factors.

Biomonitoring data show that young children frequently have higher serum PFAS concentrations than adults, particularly in environmentally contaminated areas.
“Biomonitoring data show that young children frequently have higher serum PFAS concentrations than adults, particularly in environmentally contaminated areas [5,42,43,60].”

The Results section (‘Relationship between PFAS levels in serum and house dust’; page unavailable) reports the opposite age pattern: older participants had higher overall serum PFAS levels in the eight impacted communities. The Methods section (‘Statistical analysis’; page unavailable) also notes that older individuals have been found to have higher serum PFAS in several populations. (LLM, conf=0.89)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredChildren are particularly vulnerable to PFAS exposure due to their developing organs, higher metabolic rates, greater intake of air, food, and water per unit body weight, and behaviors such as hand-to-mouth contact that increase exposure risk.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
