    • Dataset of Biota-Sediment Accumulation Factors for PFAS, Version 1

    Metadata Updated: September 29, 2023

    The file is a compilation of reported Biota-Sediment Accumulation Factors (BSAFs) for PFAS for aquatic species. The file has the BSAFs as reported in the source and then, adjusted to units of kg-OC/kg-ww. File also contains location information (where the measurement was done), an evaluation of its study quality, citation, number of samples used in determining the BSAF, complete taxonomic information, kinetic information when available, and when available, concentrations in the sediment and organism used to determine the BSAF.

    This dataset is associated with the following publication: Burkhard, L., and L. Votava. Biota-Sediment Accumulation Factors for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY. Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Pensacola, FL, USA, 42(2): 277-295, (2022).
