In the field of disease ecology, the outcomes of disease outbreaks in wildlife communities with varying biodiversity is the subject of intense debate.

These enhanced attenuation remedies replace less sustainable remedial methods like dig & haul or pump & treat, which create more PFAS waste materials.

Silver cluster-assembled materials (SCAMs) are emerging light-emitting materials with molecular designability and unique properties.

At least 45% of the nation’s tap water is estimated to have one or more types of the chemicals known as per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances, or PFAS, according to a new study by the U.S. Geological Survey.

Accurate sampling of PFAS is vital because the data received provides insights into their potential health risks and what strategies should be used for remediation or water treatment. 

At the outset, PFAS@Mines will focus on four interdisciplinary efforts aimed at the development of more cost-effective and sustainable technologies for remediating PFAS-contaminated water and soil.

This is the first peer-reviewed study to show sociodemographic disparities in drinking water PFAS exposures and to statistically link sources such as landfills and airports to PFAS concentrations in community water systems.

Handling or using fluorinated containers is a significant pathway for unsafe human exposure to PFOA and other PFAS. 

The primary Senate sponsors of S.B.543 are Oregon State Senators Janeen Sollman and Michael Dembrow. The primary House sponsors are Oregon State Representatives Maxine Dexter and Tom Andersen. 

"This work may be pertinent to water quality issues both locally and globally," says Benjamin Shindel, a Ph.D. student in Germany. "We want to see this out in the world, where it can make a real impact."
