To date, no widely adopted reference method exists for the quantification of PFAS in air emissions. The need is however clear and driven by the growing concern on PFAS health risks, lack of current air regulations, and the need for more effective mitigation strategies to avoid additional PFAS releases.

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 ...

NMR spectroscopy offers analytical methods to assess recycling strategies for PEMs designed to promote sustainable material use. ABSTRACT Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis is considered a promising technique for producing green hydrogen at high purity, yet it has not been implemented industrially on a large scale.

ABSTRACT Background Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants with potential cardiovascular effects. However, evidence on their combined (mixture) impact remains limited. Objectives To assess associations between individual and mixed PFAS exposures and cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes among US adults ...

ABSTRACT Humans are chronically exposed to mixtures of environmental contaminants. Exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) contributes to increased health impairment observed globally. This study aimed to evaluate the endocrine‐disruptive and oxidative stress potential of a human‐relevant, complex chemical mixture in vitro.

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

Siloxane Decomposition and Clustering in Atmospheric Pressure Non‐Thermal Plasma Discharge
Atmospheric‐pressure He/HMDSO plasmas convert HMDSO to PDMS deposits. At lower power, mass growth is suppressed, while small silicon‐containing fragments and hydrocarbon radicals dominate. Stable small hydrocarbons are formed at higher power, reflecting enhanced fragmentation and recombination pathways.
