a
Geometric means were calculated for PFAS for individual samples and arithmetic means were calculated for pooled PCBs, PBDEs, and OCPs, where pooled data are comparable to an arithmetic means of individual samples.
b
Mean not calculated due to high number of samples below the limit of detection.
c
Total PFOA and PFOS, including all isomers, means calculated for SELF and NHANES.
d
Concentrations are lipid adjusted.
e
Geometric standard deviations were calculated for PFAS in NHANES.
