Abstract
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to Dr. Post’s letter (Post 2023) regarding our recent publication. We are pleased that our paper and the work of the independent panel of experts is gaining such attention and we appreciate the opportunity to respond and correct the record. Dr. Post suggests there are “inaccuracies” in our statements regarding the use of immune system effects as the critical endpoints for toxicity factors for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). We divided her comment letter into three sections and provide responses below.
期刊介绍:
Critical Reviews in Toxicology provides up-to-date, objective analyses of topics related to the mechanisms of action, responses, and assessment of health risks due to toxicant exposure. The journal publishes critical, comprehensive reviews of research findings in toxicology and the application of toxicological information in assessing human health hazards and risks. Toxicants of concern include commodity and specialty chemicals such as formaldehyde, acrylonitrile, and pesticides; pharmaceutical agents of all types; consumer products such as macronutrients and food additives; environmental agents such as ambient ozone; and occupational exposures such as asbestos and benzene.
