The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) recently noted that Health Risk Assessment scientists at MDH have published two articles in the Journal of Environmental Exposure Assessment related to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS):

• “A revised and improved toxicokinetic model to simulate serum concentrations of bioaccumulative PFAS”: According to MDH, the publication “presents an updated method to determine how PFAS accumulates in human bodies from birth through childhood.”

• “Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in powdered infant formula: potential exposures and health risks”: MDH states that the publication “presents a study performed in partnership with MDH’s Public Health Laboratory, that found powdered infant formula is not a major source of PFAS exposure.”

MDH notes that the work was supported by the Clean Water Fund, funded by the 2008 Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment.
