Comparison of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS) removal in a combined adsorption and electrochemical oxidation process [PDF]
This study focused on three of the most studied PFAS molecules, namely perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS).

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.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US and predicted to rise to second by 2030. Several risk factors have been identified as potential contributors to pancreatic cancer development including lifestyle factors and long‐term exposure to occupational and environmental carcinogens.

PFAS Leaching from Common Sampling Materials Using a Standardized Protocol
Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.Abstract Accurate measurement of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in environmental samples requires minimizing external contamination sources, yet the sampling items themselves can introduce PFAS. Existing sampling guidance often relies on precautionary assumptions rather than empirical data, and prior studies have lacked standardized ...

Monthly Variations in Perfluorinated Compound Concentrations in Groundwater
Toxics, 2018 Large-scale manufacturing of poly- and perfluorinated compounds in the second half of the 20th century has led to their ubiquity in the environment, and their unique structure has made them persistent contaminants.

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are environmentally persistent contaminants that are difficult to monitor and separate because of their chemical stability and diverse physicochemical properties. In this study, the retention behavior of several PFAS, including perfluorooctane sulfonate, perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS‐K ...

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants widely recognized for their resistance to degradation and potential adverse health effects. The treatment of PFAS‐contaminated aqueous media (e.g., drinking water, wastewater, and leachate) has been extensively studied in the published literature; however, the
