Isomer-specific binding affinity of perfluoroalkyl substances with red blood cells
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safetys: Wide presence of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in human blood has attracted great attention. Interactions of PFASs with serum proteins have been well investigated, but with red blood cells (RBCs), a nonnegligible cellular constituent of blood ...

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 ...
