2021

Long, M., Wielsøe, M., & Bonefeld-Jørgensen, E.C.

Description

The authors assessed the trend over time in concentrations of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and metals among the Inuit of Greenland for the period 1994 to 2015. The results revealed a downward trend in POPs and regulated metals , but a potentially increasing trend in unregulated PFAS, highlighting the need for continued biomonitoring of contaminants of concern for the protection of the health of Arctic populations.
