The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1704-1734, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Fluorinated Hypercrosslinked Polymers with Exceptional Capacity for Perfluorooctanoic Acid Removal from Water

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
Fluorinated hypercrosslinked polymers (FHCPs) are reported as highly efficient sorbents for the rapid removal of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) from water. The materials integrate strong fluorophilic interactions, extensive porosity, and excellent chemical stability, delivering fast adsorption kinetics, high uptake capacity, and selective PFOA removal ...

Life‐Cycle Environmental Impacts of Removing and Destroying PFAS From Wastewater Effluent

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.
A life‐cycle assessment (LCA) framework was used to estimate environmental impacts from retrofitting existing water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs) to remove and destroy per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from wastewater effluent to support policy, permitting, and planning by regulatory agencies and utilities.

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances: An Environmental Challenge

open access: yes
Abstract Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances are a group of synthetic aliphatic compounds containing one or more perfluoroalkyl moieties (CnF2n + 1-). Due to their unique surface-active properties and high chemical and thermal stability, they are used in various consumer products such as cosmetics, food packaging, furnishings, and ...

Investigation of the Effects of Perfluorooctane Sulfonic Acid (PFOS) and Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) Exposure on Interleukin‐17 Signalling and Poly(I:C)‐Induced Lung Inflammation in BALB/c Mice

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 139, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of co‐exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) on the IL‐17‐related immune responses and the Poly(I:C)‐induced lung inflammation. A total of 66 adult male BALB/c mice were divided into 11 groups, including controls, dose groups receiving PFOS+PFOA (1,

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
This review explores how exposure to environmental pollutants during the first 1000 days of life may affect infant sleep. Evidence suggests potential links between chemical exposures and sleep disturbances, underscoring the need for more research on early‐life vulnerability and the impact of pollutants in air, diet, and breast milk.

Urinary Volatile Organic Compound Metabolites Are Associated With MASLD/MASH in Humans and Induce Steatosis in Liver Organoids

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Volatile organic compound (VOC) exposure is an environmental health concern and could, through the liver exposome, be associated with metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) progression. Methods We analysed NHANES 2017–2020, a U.S.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in shorebirds of Australia

open access: yes, 2020
Australske kystomåder og våtmarker innehar viktige habitater for dyreliv. I disse områdene forbereder trekkfugler seg på sin kommende reise til hekkeområder i nord ved å søke etter mat for å samle opp energi. Kystfugler er spesielt utsatt for miljøgifter da slike stoffer ofte opphopes i kystområder.
