Residential proximity to transport facilities as urban determinants of individual-level per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) exposures: Analysis of two longitudinal cohorts in Singapore
Transport facilities are prevalent near residences in urban settings and may be potential sources of PFAS emissions from automotive-related lubricants, parts, and materials. Our findings that exposure was robustly associated with individual-level concentration, over and above behavioral and other factors, highlight the importance of monitoring these and other urban sources of exposure.
