Plasma levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are associated with altered levels of proteins previously linked to inflammation, metabolism and cardiovascular disease

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2023
Background: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been linked to immunotoxic and cardiometabolic effects in both experimental and epidemiological studies, but with conflicting results.

PFAS Mass Discharge at an AFFF‐Impacted Site: 2. Evaluation of SPLP Test Reliability

open access: yesRemediation Journal, Volume 37, Issue 1, Winter 2026.
ABSTRACT There is a critical need to understand if synthetic precipitation leaching procedure (SPLP) or equivalent tests are sufficiently representative for the purpose of estimating soil‐to‐groundwater mass discharge of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

Single and binary adsorption of perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid on chitosan-carbon nanotubes hydrogel beads: Adsorption kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamic parameters

open access: yesSustainable Chemistry for the Environment
The occurrence of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) in bodies of water that receive contaminants has presented substantial health hazards for humans and aquatic organisms. Herein, the adsorption of PFOA (1.208E-05 mol/

Analysis of perfluorinated phosponic acids and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid in water, sludge and sediment by LC-MS/MS

open access: yes, 2011
Residues of perfluorinated phosphonic acids (PFPAs) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) were investigated in various Dutch surface waters, sludge and sediments.

Uncovering the Tumorigenic Blueprint of PFOS and PFOA Through Multi-Organ Transcriptomic Analysis of Biomarkers, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), called forever chemicals, persist in the environment and bioaccumulate, posing significant health risks. While epidemiological studies have linked exposure to specific PFAS types, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA)

Exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) adversely affects the life-cycle of the damselfly Enallagma cyathigerum

open access: yes, 2010
: We evaluated whether life-time exposure to PFOS affects egg development, hatching, larval development, survival, metamorphosis and body mass of Enallagma cyathigerum (Insecta: Odonata). Eggs and larvae were exposed to five concentrations ranging from 0

Identification of chemicals targeting dementia genes and pathways in the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Dementia is a public health challenge and exposures likely contribute to risk, though many have not been evaluated. We screened chemicals for enrichment with dementia genes and related pathways. METHODS We obtained gene lists from Agora and the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) for 1008 chemicals and nine dementia‐related ...

Enhanced Elimination of Perfluorooctane Sulfonic Acid by Menstruating Women : Evidence from Population-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling

open access: yes, 2014
Human biomonitoring studies have shown that concentrations of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) in men are higher than in women. We investigate sex differences in elimination of PFOS by fitting a population-based pharmacokinetic model to six cross ...
