Gestational Perfluorooctanoic Acid Exposure Inhibits Placental Development by Dysregulation of Labyrinth Vessels and uNK Cells and Apoptosis in Mice

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a widely used perfluorinated compound and known to cause developmental toxicity which includes the increase of resorbed embryo, decrease of fetal survival, and fetal growth retardation.

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.

Skin Permeability of Perfluorocarboxylic Acids Using Flow-Through Diffusion on Porcine Skin

Toxics
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are found in a variety of places including cosmetics, rain jackets, dust, and water. PFAS have also been applied to occupational gear to protect against water and oils.

Redox-active rGO-nZVI nanohybrid-catalyzed chain shortening of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS)

Journal of Hazardous Materials Letters, 2021
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are exceptionally stable chemicals due to their strong CF bonds. Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) particles have the potential to remove and degrade PFASs through redox activity.

Comparison of Zn-Al and Mg-Al layered double hydroxides for adsorption of perfluorooctanoic acid.

Chemosphere, 2021
Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a large class of synthesized chemicals, are persistent in nature and generally recalcitrant to conventional chemical and biological treatment. Adsorption is considered an economical and practical method for PFAS

Chemically Doped Conductive Polymers for Wearable Health Monitoring

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Among conductive polymers, poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), polyaniline (PANI), and polypyrrole (PPy) are the most studied and applied. Chemical doping significantly boosts intrinsic conductivity and mechanical robustness.

SR‐B1‐Mediated Transplacental Transfer of Hydrophobic Toxicants Disrupts Fetal Development During Barriergenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study maps the spatiotemporal distribution of hydrophobic toxicants and endogenous metabolites in the developing placenta and fetus. By integrating mass spectrometry imaging with snRNA‐seq, we identify SR‐B1 as a key transporter driving early‐gestation xenobiotic transfer and reveal a critical exposure window associated with persistent fetal ...
