Dietary exposure to perfluoroalkyl acids for the Swedish population in 1999, 2005 and 2010

► Dietary exposure to perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) for the Swedish population was quantified. ► The contribution of different food groups to the total dietary exposure differed with the chain-length of PFAAs. ► Dietary intake was the major ongoing exposure pathway for and long-chain PFAAs. ► Drinking water intake was identified as an important exposure pathway for short-chain PFAAs. ► Average dietary intakes of PFAAs displayed a small inter-year variation over the period 1999 to 2010.
