Description

Perfluoroundecanoic acid (PFUnA) is a highly fluorinated carboxylic acid. It is a persistent organic pollutant that has been detected in various environmental matrices, including human blood. PFUnA is primarily produced as a byproduct of the industrial production of other perfluorinated compounds, such as perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). PFUnA has been shown to exhibit biological activity and can accumulate in the environment. Research on PFUnA focuses on its environmental fate, toxicity, and potential health effects. Concerns about the potential health risks associated with PFUnA have led to efforts to reduce its production and release into the environment. '
