Species-specific accumulation and biomagnification of PFASs in aquatic and terrestrial organisms from the Xisha Islands

Puntos clave

• Biomagnification of PFASs is notably species-specific among different organisms.
• Levels of PFASs varied significantly, influencing ecological impact across food webs.
• Assessment of PFAS accumulation used environmental sampling from the Xisha Islands.
• Calls for further studies on the long-term ecological effects of PFAS exposure in diverse ecosystems.
