Abstract The presence of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) in ambient air particulates (PM2.5, PM10, and TSP) in Beijing was investigated in the current study. The results showed that PFBA, PFPeA, PFHpA, PFOA, PFNA, PFDA, PFUnA, PFDoA, and PFOS, were detected in all sizes of ambient air particulates. The concentrations of PFCs in TSP were slightly higher than those in PM10 and PM2.5. The concentrations of PFCs in PM2.5 were the lowest. The Sigma PFCs contents in PM2.5, PM10 and TSP were 87.03-96.77, 99.82-101.41, and 118.69-141.87 ng/g, respectively. PFBA, PFPeA, and PFOA were the dominating class of PFCs in ambient air particulates.
