• Exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances associates with an altered lipid composition of breast milk

  Science

  14 Sep 2021 | Environ Int

  Maternal exposure to PFAS impacts the nutritional quality of breast milk, which, in turn, may have a detrimental impact on the health and growth of the children later in life.

• Prenatal and postnatal exposure to PFAS and cardiometabolic factors and inflammation status in children from six European cohorts.

  Science

  14 Sep 2021 | Environ Int

  Prenatal, rather than postnatal, PFAS exposure might contribute to increased obesity in children.

• Comparative characterization of microbial communities that inhabit PFAS-rich contaminated sites: A case-control study

  Science

  14 Sep 2021 | J Hazard Mater

  Soil microbial communities were found to have adverse reactions to PFAS which may put crops at risk.

• Transport and environmental risks of perfluoroalkyl acids in a large irrigation and drainage system for agricultural production

  Science

  11 Sep 2021 | Environ Int

  Policy

  8 Sep 2021

  In the last 10 years, have you manufactured, processed or imported products containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)? If so, be aware - the EPA may soon require a detailed report.

• The role of maternal high fat diet on mouse pup metabolic endpoints following perinatal PFAS and PFAS mixture exposure

  Science

  8 Sep 2021 | Toxicology

  PFAS mixtures were found to have increased detrimental effects, especially when transferred from mother to offspring.

• Use of glioma to assess the distribution of patterns of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances in human brain

  Science

  8 Sep 2021 | Environ Res

  PFAS, including short chains, were found inside the brain circumnavigating the blood-brain barrier.

• Associations between polyfluoroalkyl substance and organophosphate flame retardant exposures and telomere length in a cohort of women firefighters and office workers in San Francisco

  Science

  7 Sep 2021 | Environ Health

  Positive associations between PFAS and telomere length in women workers, with larger effects seen among firefighters as compared to office workers.

• The Nrf2a pathway impacts zebrafish offspring development with maternal preconception exposure to perfluorobutanesulfonic acid

  Science

  2 Sep 2021 | Chemosphere

• External and internal human exposure to PFOA and HFPOs around a mega fluorochemical industrial park, China: Differences and implications

  Science

  25 Aug 2021 | Environ Int

  PFAS were detected in human hair, and their compositions were similar to those in human serum, suggesting that hair is a good non-invasive indicator for long-term exposure to legacy long-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids and HFPOs.
