Perfluorodecanoic Acid

Perfluorodecanoic acid is a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS). Chronic administration of perfluorodecanoic acid (25 mg/kg per day) induces weight loss and increases liver weight and lipid content in mice. Perfluorodecanoic acid (25 mg/kg per day) reduces mRNA expression of the genes encoding IL-1beta, IL-18, and cellular inhibitor of apoptosis 2 (cIAP2), as well as caspase-1, -3, and -7 in mouse liver. It has been found in marine life and as a contaminant in surface water. Formulations containing perfluorodecanoic acid have been used commercially as wetting agents and flame retardants.Formal Name: 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-nonadecafluoro-decanoic acid.
