Thank you so much for subscribing to and reading the What's New With PFAS This Week Newsletter! And many thanks to Regenesis for their sponsorship of the newsletter!
In a typical week more than 100 peer reviewed PFAS related articles are published--below is a small sample of recent articles.
PFAS covers many different subject areas--ranging from wastewater treatment to law to fashion.

Peer Reviewed Research
Koenig, P., et al. (2025). "Development, optimization and validation of a highly sensitive and selective method for the determination of PFAS in animal-based food." Chemosphere 372: 144123.
This method achieved limits of quantification of 2.60 (PFOS) - 6.80?ng/kg (PFHxS) for egg, 9.80 (PFOS) - 46.0?ng/kg (PFHxS) for liver and 0.165 (PFNA) - 0.455?ng/kg (PFOS) for milk for the 4 EFSA-PFAS.

Kumar, V., et al. (2025). "Environmental Pollutants as Emerging Concerns for Cardiac Diseases: A Review on Their Impacts on Cardiac Health." Biomedicines 13(1).
This review explores the impact of cardiovascular disease, discussing risk-assessment methods, intervention strategies, and the challenges clinicians face in addressing pollutant-induced cardiovascular diseases

Reid, C. J., et al. (2025). "Microbial communities in biosolids-amended soils: A critical review of high-throughput sequencing approaches." J Environ Manage 375: 124203.
Here we review the current body of literature examining microbial communities in biosolids-amended soils using HTS of total community DNA and RNA..

Remili, A., et al. (2025). "Persistent pollutant exposure impacts metabolomic profiles in polar bears and ringed seals from the High Arctic and Hudson Bay, Canada." Environmental Research 269 C7 - 120862.
This study revealed significant correlations and differences in metabolite profiles of polar bears and ringed seals, suggesting that PFAS impacted several pathways related to lipid metabolism, bile acid synthesis, antioxidant defenses, arginine biosynthesis, histidine metabolism, and sphingolipid metabolism, with ringed seals showing greater sensitivity to PFAS? 2025

Rey, D. M., et al. (2025). "Groundwater flowpath characteristics drive variability in per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) loading across a stream-wetland system." Sci Total Environ 964: 178533.
We investigated one such system with several known PFAS source areas, where high and low permeability sediments (glacial) coupled with groundwater-lake and groundwater/surface-water interactions created complex 'source to seep' dynamics.

PFAS Expert Webinar Series:
REGENESIS invites you to attend our upcoming Winter 2025 webinars. We will be featuring three webinar events with key environmental thought leaders. Topics will cover the link between Parkinson's Disease and TCE exposure, in situ?colloidal activated carbobn treatment for PFAS, and navigating PFAS regulations. Each webinar will provide an opportunity for questions and answers. Certificates of completion are available on request.

PFAS Cost Comparison Study - Key Takeaways
?
PFAS Treatment is less than 1/3 Pump and Treat in Cost Comparison Study
Using data from the former Wurtsmith Air Force Base in Oscoda, Michigan, the authors of this REMEDIATION journal article demonstrate how REGENESIS's PlumeStop? technology offers significant savings over Pump & treat (P&T) systems for treating PFAS-contaminated groundwater and promises to save military bases > $1 Billion over 30 years as compared to P&T.

Peer Reviewed Research (continued)
Shea, S. M., et al. (2025). "Release of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances from AFFF-impacted soils: Effects of water saturation in vadose zone soils." J Contam Hydrol 269: 104506.
Soil samples collected from an aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF)-impacted sandy soil formation at two depth intervals above the water table were used in bench-scale column experiments to evaluate the release of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) under different degrees of water saturation.
?
Xu, M., et al. (2025). "A scalable surface nanoarchitectonics approach for melaleuca bark-derived biochar: Rapid PFOA removal and superior supercapacitor performance." Separation and Purification Technology 361 C7 - 131626.
Based on the principles of sustainable development, the porous carbon material with a hierarchical structure derived from Melaleuca bark was developed and applied in environmental pollution control and energy storage.. ? 2025 Elsevier B.V.
?
Zacs, D., et al. (2025). "Occurrence levels of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCA) and perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acids (PFSA) in European perch (Perca fluviatilis) samples collected from inland waters in Latvia: Component profiles, spatial distribution and dietary exposure to consumers." Environmental Research 269 C7 - 120882.
This study was performed to evaluate the occurrence of perfluorinated substances (PFAS) in European perch (Perca fluviatilis) samples from Latvian freshwater bodies. ? 2025
?
Zhang, J., et al. (2025). "Shellfish and shorebirds from the East-Asian Australian flyway as bioindicators for unknown per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances using the total oxidizable precursor assay." Journal of Hazardous Materials 487 C7 - 137189.
In this study, the TOP assay was applied to samples from the East Asian-Australian Flyway, a critical migratory route for millions of shorebirds. ? 2025 The Authors
?
Zhao, X., et al. (2025). "Research on the PFAS release and migration behavior of multi-layer outdoor jacket fabrics." Journal of Hazardous Materials 487 C7 - 137218.
This research investigates the release and transport mechanisms of PFAS in outdoor jacket fabrics treated with a short side-chain fluorinated polymers (C6F13-SFPs) for durable water repellency (DWR). ? 2025 Elsevier B.V.
