Influence of Perfluorooctane Liquids in the Formation of Sticky Silicone Oil
Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022 Purpose. To examine the influence of perfluorooctane (PFO) in the formation of sticky silicone oil (SO). Methods. We performed in vitro experiments using PFO, SO, aqua, and canola oil (CO). The surface tension of CO relative to aqua is very close to that

Adverse Effects of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate on the Liver and Relevant Mechanisms
Toxics, 2022 Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent, widely present organic pollutant. PFOS can enter the human body through drinking water, ingestion of food, contact with utensils containing PFOS, and occupational exposure to PFOS, and can have adverse ...

Perinatal exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate affects glucose metabolism in adult offspring. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) are globally present in the environment and are widely distributed in human populations and wildlife. The chemicals are ubiquitous in human body fluids and have a long serum elimination half-life.

Sorption of perfluoroalkyl substances in sewage sludge [PDF]
, 2017 The sorption behaviour of three perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) (perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorobutanesulfonic acid (PFBS)) was studied in sewage sludge samples.

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer
Advanced Science, EarlyView.As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 12, 16 March 2026.A molecular cage exhibits strong entropy‐driven encapsulation of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), accommodating up to four short‐chain guests as anionic aggregates. Guided by these molecular‐level insights, a novel host‐in‐host adsorbent is developed: mesoporous silica doped with 1 wt% cage achieves >98% removal of short‐ and long‐chain PFAS with full

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...
