Prenatal and Early Postnatal Exposure to Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): What Is the Correlation between Dioxins and Long-Chain Per- and Polyfluorinated Alkyl Substances (PFAS)?

Data on the correlations are available from a study conducted by the BfR,not only for the children,but also for the mothers, the latter of which are presented in this article. The data demonstrate a moderate correlation of dioxin I-TEq and the four PFAS in maternal blood drawn 11 months after delivery. However, the observed correlations of plasma levels of dioxins and PFAS make simple association analyses of biological parameters and single compound groups difficult with respect to generating hypotheses of causal relationships.
