Improvement of α-amylase to the metabolism adaptions of soil bacteria against PFOS exposure
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 Toxicity of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in soils towards bacteria shows an impact on its ecosystem function. This study aims to obtain insight into the effect of hydrolase (e.g. α-amylase) in soil on metabolism adaptions of bacteria (e.g.

Adsorption of Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) onto metal oxides modified biochar
, 2020 Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent organic pollutant (POP), which poses potential toxicity to biotic and abiotic ecosystem. Adsorption of PFOS from soil and water has emerged as promising remediation practice due to low cost, high removal ...

Hazards of percutaneous PFO closure [PDF]
European Journal of Echocardiography, 2005 Please see the article by Christen et al. (doi: 10.1016/j.euje.2005.08.002 ) to which this editorial pertains. In 2004, an estimated 2000–3000 patients underwent percutaneous closure of a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Given the range of potential indications (such as prevention of cryptogenic stroke, decompression illness in divers, platypnea ...
