Association between ρE3 PUFAs and PFAS Bioaccumulation in Benthic Animals across a Watershed

Journal of Water and Environment Technology
The widespread presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in aquatic environments poses significant risks to aquatic food webs. As primary consumers, benthic animals not only transfer energy through food chains but also facilitate PFASs ...

Dietary Interventions May Mitigate Health Risks of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Exposure Through Modulation of the Gut Microbiota: A Review

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2026.
Dietary interventions, including probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics, may modulate gut microbiota to regulate PFAS accumulation and elimination. Specific microbial taxa facilitate PFAS removal through adsorption and bioaccumulation, potentially reducing internal PFAS burden and mitigating PFAS‐related health risks.
