Emerging and legacy per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in a St. Lawrence River food web

This study set out to provide an up-to-date portrait of the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination status in a freshwater food web from the St. Lawrence River (QC, Canada). Water, sediments, aquatic vegetation, invertebrates, and some fish species were targeted for analysis.



All data are a part subject of a publication containing method details, full QA/QC, interpretation and conclusions: Munoz G, Mercier L, Duy SV, Liu J, Sauvé S, Houde M. Bioaccumulation and trophic magnification of emerging and legacy per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in a St. Lawrence River food web. Environ Pollut. 2022;309:119739. doi:10.1016/j.envpol.2022.119739
