Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Risk of Psoriasis: A Population-Based Study

Toxics
PFAS are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been reported to be associated with adverse health outcomes. However, the relationship of PFAS exposure with psoriasis risk has not been reported. Utilizing data from the 2003–2018 NHANES, we explored the

Environmental Tobacco Smoke Exposure in Relation to Family Characteristics, Stressors and Chemical Co-Exposures in California Girls. [PDF]

, 2019
Childhood environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure is a risk factor for adverse health outcomes and may disproportionately burden lower socioeconomic status groups, exacerbating health disparities.

Upscaling Sodium‐Ion Battery Cells: From Aqueous Processing to Performance Assessment of Hard Carbon|Prussian White Pouch Cells

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the feasibility of scaling up Prussian White (PW)‐based cathode manufacturing at a pilot scale. Through careful PW dehydration combined with optimized aqueous processing, we report the stepwise development of industrially relevant 1 Ah pouch cells and evaluate their performance under various conditions.

Serum PFAS in Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) Firefighters From Six U.S. Airport Fire Departments

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Use of aqueous film‐forming foam (AFFF) is a source of exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) for firefighters working in aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF) settings. However, data characterizing the association between serum PFAS concentrations and exposure risk factors for ARFF firefighters are limited ...

Cardiometabolic health and per and polyfluoroalkyl substances in an Inuit population

Environment International, 2023
Introduction: The cardiometabolic health status of Inuit in Nunavik has worsened in the last thirty years. The high concentrations of perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) may be contributing to this since PFAAs have been linked with hypercholesterolemia ...

Polyfluoroalkyl‐Tagged Cell‐Penetrating Peptide‐Additives Enhance Intracellular Protein Delivery via Sustained Monomeric Lipid Interaction

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
We introduce cell‐penetrating peptides (CPPs) with polyfluoroalkyl‐tags that drastically enhance intracellular protein delivery by promoting membrane retention. Via the combination of live‐cell imaging, biophysical analysis, and computational simulations, we reveal how fluorous CPPs interact with membranes via monomeric interactions and dynamic tag ...

Association between exposure to bisphenols and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and behavioral problems among Chinese preschoolers

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
In order to fill the gap in previous research, we aim to investigate the relationship between single and co-exposure to bisphenols (BPs) and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and behavioral problems among Chinese preschoolers.

The association between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and biological aging among middle and older age adults: The moderating effect of caffeine

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are pervasive environmental pollutants associated with aging-related diseases and mortality risks, yet their relationship with biological aging remains underexplored. Notably, dietary antioxidants like
