This manuscript systematically reviews 156 peer-reviewed articles on methods for estimating total per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), following preferred reporting items systematic meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Direct indirect of PFAS include targeted analysis, fluorine (TF), organic (TOF), extractable (EOF), absorbable (AOF), oxidizable precursor (TOP) assay. Combustion ion chromatography (CIC) was the most utilized method (>50%), followed by particle-induced gamma-ray emission (PIGE, 9%) high-resolution-continuum source graphite furnace molecular absorption spectrometry (HR-CS-GFMAS, 6%). Techniques like instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) were less common. A geographic bias evident, with 69% studies from US (33%), Sweden (12%), China Germany (11%). Most research environmental samples (water, soil, sediments), while significant data gaps noted in South America, Africa, atmospheric PFAS. Challenges inter-laboratory comparisons arise inconsistent units (e.g., mg/L, μg/m3, %, etc.). About 75% involved pre-treatment solvent extraction, sorbents), 25% did not. detection limit observed concentrations varied widely, low water (ng/L) to higher levels biota, products (mg/L). Limitations contradictory results when complementary techniques are applied same sample, potentially leading over- or under-estimation. Across studies, a substantial fraction TF remains unaccounted for, highlighting need non-targeted screening (NTS) identify unknown (UPFAS UOPFAS). Bridging these is critical advancing risk assessment.
