Congener-Specific Numbering Systems for the Environmentally Relevant C4 through C8 Perfluorinated Homologue Groups of Alkyl Sulfonates, Carboxylates, Telomer Alcohols and Acids, and Their Derivatives
We introduce a congener-specific numbering system for the C4 through C8 perfluorinated homologue groups of alkyl sulfonates, carboxylates, telomer alcohols and acids, and their derivatives. Increas...

Predicting the Congener-Specific Environmental Behaviour of Perfluorinated Acid Contaminants Using Semi-Empirical Computational Methods
Perfluorinated acids (PFAs) are contaminants detected worldwide in a range of abiotic and biotic environmental matrices. The two major classes of PFAs include the perfluorinated carboxylic acids (P...
