Sigma-Aldrich) were analyzed, i.e., C3–C5 and C7–C9 perfluoroalkyl carboxylates
(PFCAs), C4, C6, and C8 perfluoroalkyl
sulfonates (PFSAs), perfluorooctane sulfonamide (FOSA), and 6:2 and
8:2 fluorotelomer sulfonates (6:2 and 8:2 FTSA). For quantification
as well as for quality assurance and control (QA/QC), eight mass-labeled
internal standards (ISs) (i.e., 13C4-PFBA, 13C2-PFHxA, 13C4-PFOA, 13C5-PFNA, 13C2-PFDA, 18O2-PFHxS, 13C4-PFOS, 13C8-FOSA, purities > 99%, Wellington Laboratories,
Guelph, ON) were also included. For details on the included PFASs
and their internal standards, see
