Abstrakt: The 6:2 fluorotelomer alcohol (6:2 FTOH) is a common impurity in per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) used in many applications. Our previous toxicokinetic (TK) evaluation of 6:2 FTOH calculated times to steady state (tss) of one of its metabolites, 5:3 fluorotelomer carboxylic acid (5:3A), in the plasma and tissues of up to a year after oral exposure to rats. Our current work further elucidated the TK of 5:3A and other metabolites of 6:2 FTOH in pregnant and nonpregnant rats after repeated oral exposure and examined the role of renal transporters in the biopersistence of 5:3A. The tss values for 5:3A in serum and tissues of adult nonpregnant animals ranged from 150 days to over a year. 4:3 fluorotelomer carboxylic acid (4:3A) was an additional potentially-biopersistent metabolite. 5:3A was the major metabolite of 6:2 FTOH in serum of pregnant dams and fetuses at each time interval. 5:3A was not a substrate for renal transporters in a human kidney cell line in vitro, indicating that renal reuptake of 5:3A is unlikely contribute to its biopersistence. Further research is needed to identify the underlying processes and evaluate the impact of these 6:2 FTOH metabolites on human health.
