Aerobic BTEX biodegradation increases yield of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids from biotransformation of a polyfluoroalkyl surfactant, 6:2 FtTAoS

Abstract

The presence of BTEX in AFFF-impacted soils increased the yield of terminal transformation products from polyfluorinated surfactant 6:2 FtTAoS. Aromatic oxygenases are likely responsible for direct oxidation of the thioether moiety.
