Microplastic Impacts on Seafood: A Global Synthesis of Experimental Findings

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 591-606, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Plastic pollution is a growing global concern, with plastic and microplastic particles now widespread in aquatic environments. Microplastics are frequently ingested by marine organisms, including commercially important seafood species. Ingestion can lead to a range of biological effects, influenced by the size, type and quantity of plastic, as

Differential toxicity between perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA)

open access: yesThe Journal of Toxicological Sciences, 2016
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are persistent environmental contaminants. Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) are representatives of PFASs. Recently, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) set the health advisory level as 70 parts per trillion for lifetime exposure to PFOS and PFOA from drinking water, based

PFAS Removal During Pyrolysis of Biosolids Is Affected by Initial PFAS Concentration and Pyrolysis Efficiency

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 4, April 2026.
Pyrolysis of industrially impacted biosolids at 800°C removed PFAS to below detection limits in biochar but PFOS still remained in biochar produced at 500°C. ABSTRACT Current and pending biosolids regulations related to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have triggered the industry to consider emerging biosolids treatment processes.
