Endocrine disrupting chemicals: translating mechanisms into perinatal risk assessment

Journal of Perinatal Medicine
To evaluate the evidence linking prenatal exposure to environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) – including bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) – with adverse pregnancy and fetal developmental outcomes,

Electroconductive MXene‐Thin‐Film‐Composite Membranes for Coupled Osmotic Concentration and PFAS Mineralization

Small, EarlyView.
An electroconductive MXene‐TFC membrane integrates osmotic dewatering with anodic oxidation to concentrate and mineralize PFOA at the membrane interface. The coupled AO‐PRO configuration accelerates degradation kinetics, achieves 99% rejection and up to 93% TOC removal, and lowers specific energy demand, offering a compact route for PFAS destruction ...

How criminology can support environmental health: the case of PFAS

Environmental Health
This commentary argues that the field of criminology can aid in addressing PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) pollution, providing levers to achieve public health aims of drastically lowering and abating new PFAS emissions while addressing ...

Sources and Seasonal Variations of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Surface Snow in the Arctic [PDF]

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent anthropogenic contaminants, some of which are toxic and bioaccumulative. Perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) and perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acids (PFSAs) can form during the atmospheric ...

Polypyrrole Nanofibrous Aerogel for Pressure Sensing and Anionic Contaminant Remediation

Small, EarlyView.
Nanofibrous aerogels (NFAs), highly porous ultralow‐density networks of entangled nanofibers, are conformally coated with polypyrrole (PPy) to provide a multifaceted material platform. Leveraging NFA's high surface area and mechanically robust structure with the conductive properties of PPy enables pressure‐responsive sensing for flexible electronics ...

Spatial Statistics for Screening Molecular Structures

Small, EarlyView.
Deep architectures for materials discovery demand vast training data and obscure the structure‐property link. This review shows how spatial statistics offer a physically grounded alternative: voxelized fields and two‐point correlations, compressed by principal component analysis, yield convex, interpretable descriptors. Lean surrogates then reach sub‐2%

Can Smart Electrochemical Sensors Sustainably Tackle PFAS-@Microplastics?

ECS Sensors Plus
Microplastics (MPs, long-lasting pollutants) can carry per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS, forever chemicals) in aquatic systems. PFAS@MP complexation is a threat to the human cycle, and tackling this issue is crucial for sustainability ...

Environmental Contaminant Accumulation in Freshwater Turtles Inhabiting Three Rivers of the Permian Basin, New Mexico, USA

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles are valuable sentinels of aquatic systems due to their long lifespans and resilience in environments impacted by contaminants. The Permian Basin, dominated by the oil and gas sector, spans western Texas and southeastern New Mexico, USA, including the Pecos River and its tributaries, the Delaware and Black Rivers.
