A study from Catholic University in Piacenza investigates the impact of forever chemicals that pose serious risks to both ...

Some of the metabolites left behind still contained fluorine, but after being exposed to PFOS for 194 days, F11 had even removed fluorine from three PFOS metabolites.

Researchers studied what kinds of PIDs form under different conditions. In oxygen-free environments, PFAS broke down into perfluoroalkyl radicals—molecules that are still rich in fluorine.

Fears of escalation of the Mideast conflict, a vote by Iran’s Parliament to close the Strait of Hormuz, even talk of nuclear war, set off a massive buying frenzy for ...

However, in September 2022, a health blog called Mamavation tested 39 different tooth floss products for fluorine, and found that 13 out of 39 products had indications of PFAS.

Nevertheless, pyrolysis of fluorinated plastic could form toxic fluorine-containing compounds, says Neil Tangri, science and policy director of the Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives ...

Researchers are adding to their list of consumer products that contain PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), a toxic class of fluorine compounds known as 'forever chemicals.' In a new study ...

New research from product investigation group Mamavation revealed that multiple varieties of soft contact lenses in the U.S. could contain toxic chemicals. An optometrist weighs in.

Study finds toxic ‘forever chemicals’ may be ‘intentionally added’ to ... “We determined if these products had organic fluorine as a surrogate for PFAS,” Alyssa Wicks from the ...

Some of the metabolites left behind still contained fluorine, but after being exposed to PFOS for 194 days, F11 had even removed fluorine from three PFOS metabolites. “As a caveat, there could be ...

The results showed that combining GAC with moderate heat caused the PFAS to break down into simple, non-toxic forms of fluorine. Related Stories.
