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 ...

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]
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

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]
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
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]
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is recalcitrant to degrade and mineralize. Here, the effect of temperature on the photolytic decomposition of PFOA was investigated.
