Using advanced data science and chemical detection, researchers have discovered that newborns are exposed to a much broader ...

Infants are exposed to a wider range of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances before birth than previously thought.

PFOA is a widely used perfluorinated compound valued for its durability, but its strong carbon fluorine bonds make it extremely hard to break down once it reaches the environment. Traditional advanced ...

Extensive use of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluorinated polymers (FPs) in a number of industrial processes has led to unwanted accumulation of the long-lasting and highly stable materials ...
