Nontarget Screening of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances Binding to Human Liver Fatty Acid Binding Protein

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Metadata Last Checked: August 02, 2025 | Last Modified: 2020-01-10
Current studies on nontarget analysis and toxicities of PFASs are disconnected, due to the challenges posed by the large numbers (>1,000) and diverse structures of PFASs. The SECC method provides a high-throughput experimental way to tackle the challenge of prioritizing PFASs according to key proteins, especially when their authentic standards are not available. While this study is focused on hL-FABP due to its critical role in regulating the toxicokinetics of PFASs, the protein-centric method could also be adapted to screen PFASs binding to other key proteins, such as PPARs. Computational toxicology is the predominant strategy for high-throughput predictions of toxicities of chemical contaminants.
