PFAS Removal by Anion‐Exchange Block Copolymer Membranes Featuring Highly Ordered Alternating Gyroid Nanochannels

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Engineering positively charged alternating gyroid nanochannels in block copolymer membranes provides a powerful tool for efficient PFAS removal. ABSTRACT Ion‐exchange resins (IERs) can effectively remove per‐ and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) from water through electrostatic interactions between the negatively charged PFAS and the positively ...

Effect of PFOA exposure on diminished ovarian reserve and its metabolism

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2023
Owing to its difficulty in degrading and ease of accumulation in the body, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has a detrimental effect on reproduction.

PFOA Exposure Elicits Quantitative Lipidomic Changes in the Pancreas in a Mouse Model of Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US and predicted to rise to second by 2030. Several risk factors have been identified as potential contributors to pancreatic cancer development including lifestyle factors and long‐term exposure to occupational and environmental carcinogens.

Half-lives of PFOS, PFHxS and PFOA after end of exposure to contaminated drinking water. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Municipal drinking water contaminated with perfluorinated alkyl acids had been distributed to one-third of households in Ronneby, Sweden. The source was firefighting foam used in a nearby airfield since the mid-1980s. Clean water was provided

Photodynamic priming (PDP) targets platinum resistance from chronic perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure in ovarian cancer cells

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
PFAS are environmental contaminants that induce chemoresistance in ovarian cancer cells. This study evaluated BPD‐PDP or ALA‐PpIX‐PDP in combination with carboplatin or doxorubicin to overcome PFAS‐induced chemoresistance in two cell cohorts: (i) PFAS chronically‐exposed and (ii) PFAS outgrown cells (which underwent a “recovery period” after chronic ...

Sorption of perfluoroalkyl substances in sewage sludge [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

The Price of Prosperity? A Historical Account of Regulating Industrial Pollution in the Netherlands

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regulatory governance and state‐corporate crime studies link persistent industrial pollution to long‐term regulatory–industry interactions, yet little is known about how these interactions evolve and become entrenched. This article examines two enduring cases of industrial pollution in the Netherlands—Hoogovens/Tata Steel and DuPont de Nemours/

Temperature effect on photolysis decomposing of perfluorooctanoic acid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is recalcitrant to degrade and mineralize. Here, the effect of temperature on the photolytic decomposition of PFOA was investigated.

Perfluorooctanoic acid accumulation in honeybee tissues and its impact on the immune system and gut microbiota

open access: yesEnvironmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is not only a pressing environmental concern in oceans, but also in terrestrial ecosystems. However, little is known about its potential impacts on pollinators.
