Exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances in a cohort of women firefighters and office workers in San Francisco

2019-09-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Studies in male firefighters have demonstrated increased exposures to carcinogenic compounds and increased rates of certain cancers compared to the general population. Many chemicals related to these occupational exposures have been associated with breast tumor development in animal and human studies, yet, there have been no studies on women firefighters due to their low numbers in most fire de...
