Human health risk assessment of Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)

Science of The Total Environment
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental pollutants which can bioaccumulate in aquatic species, raising concerns about human exposure to PFAS through fish consumption. Given the global reliance on fish as a protein source, this study aimed to conduct a traditional literature review to assess PFAS bioaccumulation potential

Guidance for assessment of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in fish and other aquatic organisms [PDF]

This guide describes the process of conducting a health assessment in areas with potential per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure via consumption of fish or other aquatic organisms that are locally harvested and consumed.

Peril in the Pipeline: Unraveling the threads of PFAS contamination in U.S. drinking water systems.

PLoS ONE
We examined the spatial distribution of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in the US drinking water and explored the relationship between PFAS contamination, public water systems (PWS) characteristics, and socioeconomic attributes of the affected

High-resolution mass spectrometry for extended PFAS surveillance in food: combining suspect and non-targeted approaches

Food Chemistry: X
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent, potentially harmful synthetic chemicals. While they can accumulate in foodstuffs, current monitoring often targets only a few compounds, likely underestimating dietary exposure. In this study, 58

Hybrid graphenic and iron oxide photocatalysts for the decomposition of synthetic chemicals

Communications Engineering
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals that resist degradation, posing a significant environmental and health risk. Current methods for removing PFAS from water are often complex and costly. Here we report a simple,

Recycling of paper, cardboard and its PFAS in Norway

Journal of Hazardous Materials Letters
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been used in paper products since the 1960s. PFAS emissions during the life cycle of these products have been substantial sources of these substances to the environment.

Protocol for evaluating protein-polyfluoroalkyl substances in vitro using differential scanning fluorimetry

STAR Protocols
Summary: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous synthetic chemicals that threaten public health, and serum albumin binding of PFAS represents one major variable influencing PFAS toxicokinetics.
