PFAS and Dissolved Organic Carbon Enrichment in Surface Water Foams on a Northern U.S. Freshwater Lake

Information is needed on the concentration of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in foams on surface waters impacted by aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF). Nine pairs of foam and underlying bulk water were collected from a single freshwater lake impacted by PFAS and analyzed for PFAS by liq…
