Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and the gut microbiota in infants: A scoping review
Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are persistent environmental chemicals associated with adverse health effects. Emerging evidence suggests PFAS exposure may influence gut microbiota composition, which is a critical determinant of health particularly during infancy.

Restoration ecology in conflict along the Colorado front range
Abstract Introduction Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) is a challenge to restoration in western North America. It attracts the attention of academic and government research scientists, weed managers, and chemical companies. Attempts to control it cause conflicts among these groups.

ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants widely recognized for their resistance to degradation and potential adverse health effects. The treatment of PFAS‐contaminated aqueous media (e.g., drinking water, wastewater, and leachate) has been extensively studied in the published literature; however, the

ABSTRACT Questions have recently been raised about the suitability of using porewater samples collected with suction lysimeters to estimate per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) mass discharge in the vadose zone. Multiple lines of evidence were evaluated to determine if porewater samples collected during a data gaps investigation in the former ...

Electrothermal mineralization of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances for soil remediation
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent and bioaccumulative pollutants that can easily accumulate in soil, posing a threat to environment and human health. Current PFAS degradation processes often suffer from low efficiency, high energy

Toward Safer and Sustainable Lithium Metal Batteries: Fluorine‐Free Solid Polymer Electrolytes
An analysis to assess the impact of fluorine in polymer electrolyte‐based lithium metal batteries has been conducted. It has been demonstrated that fluorine‐free LiTIM salt delivers a electrochemical performance similar to that of its fluorinated analogue salts, given the complete lithium dissociation in coordination with PEO and the restricted anion ...

Mechanochemical Degradation and Fluoride Recovery of Perfluorosulfonic Acid Polymer Membrane
The mechanochemical degradation of a perfluorosulfonic acid polymer (PFSA) used in fuel cells, was studied. The products were characterized by various techniques including nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy−energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy and liquid chromatography−mass spectrometry.
