84 In regions less affected by anthropogenic pollution, typical PFOS levels in fi sh liver were in <strong>the</strong> range 1–20 μg kg −1 ww. However, for wildlife or general human consumption, whole body or muscle concentrations would be more relevant as food matrices, which so far have not been found to exceed <strong>the</strong> PNEC value for PFOS. Compared to liver, PFOS concentrations in muscle were lower, typically in <strong>the</strong> range
