AB  - Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) present adverse effects for human 
      health, which result in strong needs for reliable tools monitoring personal 
      exposure to PFASs. This study manufactured two wristbands of high density 
      polyethylene (HDPE) and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and used the wristbands 
      to monitor PFASs personal exposure. The analytical method was developed to 
      measure 32 PFASs in the paired HDPE and TPU wristbands worn by 60 postgraduates. 
      Twenty-nine of 32 PFASs were detected and hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid 
      (HFPO-DA) was predominant individual PFASs with median concentrations of 337 and 
      554 pg/g for HDPE and TPU wristbands respectively. The gender and grade of 
      students had moderate effects on PFASs distribution in the wristbands. Higher 
      PFASs levels were determined in the two wristbands worn by the male students 
      compared to the females, and the greatest PFASs concentration was observed in the 
      wristbands worn by the first-year postgraduates, follow by second- and third-year 
      postgraduates. Additionally, significant correlations between paired HDPE and TPU 
      wristbands were observed for perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), perfluorohexane 
      sulfonic acid (PFHxS), perfluoroheptane sulfonic acid (PFHpS), perfluorooctane 
      sulfonic acid (PFOS), and HFPO-DA. These results suggest that HDPE and TPU 
      wristbands can be used as effective tools for monitoring personal PFAS exposure.
