Researchers are joined in a concerted effort to improve sampling and analysis for PFAS in environmental matrices. Particularly, they are exerting significant efforts to develop passive sampling methodologies, improve total organic fluorine (TOF) measurement, and develop a forensics approach to understanding PFAS in the environment.
