Mount Everest looks like a garbage dump. And the Arctic Ocean is full of "forever chemicals" known as PFAS. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances—PFAS—are a group of thousands of synthetic ...
The authors noted that previous studies have produced mixed results. Researchers make concerning discovery about health risk ...
Few pollutants perfuse ecosystems like per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). Understanding their environmental and public health impact involves detecting and measuring the concentrations ...
Our goals were to 1) develop conceptual ecosystem model describing food web structure and PFAS exposure routes, 2) quantify the bioaccumulation of 24 unique PFAS in aquatic and semi-aquatic plant and ...
