Perfluorobutanesulfonic acid
Perfluorobutanesulfonic acid is a surfactant that can disrupt the development of pancreatic organs and lipid metabolism regulation in zebrafish. Perfluorobutanesulfonic acid can harm the reproductive ability of nematodes (Caenorhabditis elegans) and alter the physiological functions of their offspring[1][2].
