Definition
A polyfluoroalkyl substance with formula C9HF17O4. It is an environmental contaminant found in drinking water, food, and human blood samples at low levels. It enters the environment through wastewater treatment plants or by atmospheric deposition and causes health effects in laboratory animals and humans leading to changes in thyroid hormone levels, decreased fertility rates, increased cholesterol levels, liver damage, and developmental toxicity.
