This research will, for the first time, reveal the effects of PFAS derived from dietary habits on the human body, providing comprehensive knowledge on PFAS, including their impact on cognitive and motor functions.Eun HeesooYoon JieunKameyama Mayumi...
Environmentalists are welcoming EPA’s increasing use of epidemiological data to drive its risk assessments for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), with several groups saying the move away from animal testing could be key to moving regulation forward -- but some say current studies are n...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are widely used in consumer and industrial products but have subsequently raised concerns about their toxicity. To evaluate factors influencing PFAS concentrations in drinking water and to estimate human exposure, ten PFAS were measured in tap water from the...
The panel concluded there is mostly limited or no evidence for PFAS having any link with human disease. Though they noted even though the evidence for PFAS exposure and links to health effects is very weak and inconsistent, health effects for people exposed to PFAS cannot be ruled out based ...
PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are toxic chemicals that are urgently regulated worldwide. While several adverse effects on the human body are known, including impacts on liver, kidney, and reproductive functions, the effects of 30 different multicomponent PFAS on the human body ...
Known as “forever chemicals”, PFAS pose a main health and environmental challenge. These compounds are ubiquitous in water, food, and soil.

The findings of the Bonn researchers are the latest contribution to the current debate on the effect of PFAS on human health. “We see clear signs of a harmful effect of PFAS on health. And we have found that at the same PFAS concentration in the blood, the negative effects are more pro...

Marsit:I definitely think we should be concerned. One — they’re found in pretty much every person in the United States. The data from theNational Health and Nutrition Examination Surveyhas shown that these can be detected in pretty much everyone — and that’s everyone from small children ...
