Effects and possible mechanisms of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances exposure on human thyroid function

Zhongguo gonggong weisheng, 2023
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a class of synthetic aliphatic compounds, which are found widely in environmental media and are potentially and persistently hazardous to human health and the environment, thus being considered as ...

Harnessing Semi-Supervised Machine Learning to Automatically Predict Bioactivities of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) [PDF]

, 2022
Many per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) pose significant health hazards due to their bioactive and persistent bioaccumulative properties. However, assessing the bioactivities of PFASs is both time-consuming and costly due to the sheer number and

Neonatal per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance exposure in relation to retinoblastoma

Environmental Research, 2023
Neonatal per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) exposure can disrupt hormonal homeostasis and induce neuro- and immunotoxicity in children. In this exploratory study, we investigated associations between PFAS levels in neonatal dried blood spots and retinoblastoma risk.This study included 501 retinoblastoma cases born from 1983 to 2011 and 899 ...

Titanium‐Catalyzed Defluorination of Poly(Vinyl Fluoride) and Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride) Under Friedel–Crafts Conditions

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Cationic titanium sandwich catalysts display exceptional activity in the hydrodefluorination of Csp3─F bonds, in the presence of silanes and aromatic solvents (turnover numbers up to 3000). As a result, they can be used to defluorinate challenging fluoropolymers, such as poly(vinyl fluoride) (PVF) or poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF).

Integration of ultrashort-chain compounds into the biomonitoring of per- and polyfluorinated substances in human plasma and serum

Journal of Chromatography Open
Ultrashort-chain (USC) per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are small and very polar compounds with carbon chain lengths of shorter than C4. Their ubiquitous and high levels of occurrence in environmental aquatic systems have raised significant ...

Deciphering the Role of Energy Transfer Configuration in PFAS Recognition by Metal‐Organic Frameworks

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Spatial organization of Eu/Tb centers in EuTb‐FDA MOFs is employed to regulate Tb‐to‐Eu energy transfer configuration for ratiometric PFAS sensing. Directional energy transfer amplifies PFAS‐induced optical perturbations into opposite lanthanide emission responses, with enhanced Tb emission and quenched Eu emission, thereby amplifying the sensing ...

Intermolecular Interactions, Solute Descriptors, and Partition Properties of Neutral Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) [PDF]

, 2023
The environmental partition properties of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) must be understood for their transport and fate analysis. In this study, isothermal gas chromatographic (GC) retention times of 60 neutral PFAS were measured using four ...
