Perfluoroalkyl substances in early pregnancy and risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy: A prospective cohort study

Environment International, 2020
Background: Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) were reported to be associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) but the results were inconsistent and prospective data are scarce.

Complete defluorination of PFASs via photocatalytic reduction in water. [PDF]

Nat Commun
The environmental persistence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), driven by the exceptional stability of their C-F bonds, presents a formidable challenge for remediation. Herein, we report the 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl (4-aminophenyl) porphyrin (TAPP) aggregates as visible-light-driven photocatalysts capable of achieving almost-100 ...

Effects of a variable air–water interface on injection of PFAS—Lessons learned from column tests with porous media

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Five column experiments were conducted using a mixture of 10 per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) to explore sampling techniques for the PFAS injection solution concentration in order to accurately determine the tracer mass within the experimental system and close the mass balance.

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health

Allergy, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 700-719, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

Degradation Analysis and Thermal Behavior of Ni‐Rich Cathodes at High Cutoff Voltages With Fluorine‐Free Electrolytes

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Increasing the energy density and operating at higher voltages poses challenges for electrolytes, especially for fluorine‐free alternatives. This paper studies the performance of NMC811||Si–graphite full cells at different upper cut‐off voltages with LiBOB and LiPF6‐based electrolytes.

Concentrations and exposure risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in human milk from Southern China during the first 400 days of lactation

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) pose significant health risks, particularly for infants who are highly susceptible during early life. Although several studies have reported PFASs concentrations and exposure risks in human milk in China, they ...

Pulmonary exposure to PFASs: evidence from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with lung cancer and non-cancer lung diseases

Environmental Sciences Europe
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are highly persistent anthropogenic chemicals increasingly linked to adverse respiratory effects via inhalation. However, direct evidence of PFASs accumulation within the human lung remains limited.

Effect of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances on neurodevelopment: Evidence-based risk assessment in the TRAEC strategy context

Environment International
Although emerging evidence on the association between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and neurodevelopment have been investigated, there is no consensus on the effect of maternal PFASs on neurodevelopment in offspring.

Freshwater ecotoxicity characterization factors for PFASs

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management
Abstract This research aims to address the data gaps in freshwater ecotoxicological characterization factors (CFs) for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). These CFs are essential for incorporating the ecotoxicity impacts of PFAS emissions into life cycle assessments (LCAs).
