Effects of Per- and Polyfluoroalkylated Substances on Female Reproduction

Toxics
Per- and poly-fluoroalkylated substances (PFAS) are a large group of chemicals that persist both in the environment and in the body. Legacy PFAS, e.g., perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid, are implicated as endocrine disruptors and reproductive and developmental toxicants in epidemiological and animal model studies.

Dissolved Organic Matter and Pretreatment Effects on PFAS Removal by Granular Activated Carbon

AWWA Water Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Granular activated carbon (GAC) adsorption is commonly used to remove per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water. In this study, we evaluated the impact of dissolved organic matter (DOM) concentration and pretreatment on GAC use rates for PFAS removal.

Fluorine‐Free Lithium Battery Using Boron‐Based Salt and Glyme Solvent

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
Fluorine‐free battery exploits lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode, polyethylene oxide (PEO) binder, and lithium bis(oxalate)borate (LiBOB) salt in glyme solvent. The electrolyte has excellent performances, while the PEO binder without organic solvents during electrode preparation enable LFP loading of 13.6 mg cm−2, and a capacity of ~160 mAh g−1 (2 ...

No traces of emerging and priority organic pollutants in the muscles of Procambarus clarkii suggest the feasibility of its regulated and sustainable control from uncontaminated environments

Journal of Hazardous Materials Letters
A monitoring of organic contaminants in the muscles of the Procambarus clarkii and environmental samples of water and sediment was conducted in three Sicilian wetlands (Italy).

Salt in the Wound: Assessing Pathogen Susceptibility in Amphibian Populations Across a Gradient of Salt Pollution

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The survival function of nine larval wood frog populations and their viral loads when exposed to FV3. The populations were collected as eggs from a range of salt‐polluted ponds. Viral load data are means ±1 SE. The populations are ordered in terms of the saltiness of their natal ponds.

Spatial‐temporal patterns of perfluoroalkyl substances in the biota of the Laurentian Great Lakes: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract To better understand the dynamics of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in complex freshwater ecosystems, we performed a systematic meta‐analysis of PFAS distributions and spatiotemporal variance in biota of the Laurentian Great Lakes watersheds.

Recovering nutrients from urine – A golden opportunity for sustainable fertiliser production

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 747-753, May 2026.
Agricultural industrialisation has led to levels of nutrients in the environment that are well above safe operating limits, yet fertiliser use is necessary to feed a growing population. The recovery of nutrients from human urine in large, developed cities may offset some of the ecological and economic impacts associated with fertiliser production, as ...
