Understanding the dynamics of physiological changes, protein expression, and PFAS in wildlife

Jacqueline Bangma et al.

Summary: The accumulation and elimination of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in wildlife and humans are largely due to interactions with proteins such as organic anion transporters, fatty acid binding proteins, and serum proteins like albumin. Changes in the environment and physiological factors can impact the distribution of PFAS-related proteins and subsequently affect PFAS levels. Understanding these relationships between biotic and abiotic environments, protein levels, and PFAS concentrations can improve study design and interpretation in wildlife research.

Comparison of extraction methods for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in human serum and placenta samples-insights into extractable organic fluorine (EOF)

Andreas-Marius Kaiser et al.

Summary: Since the detection of PFAS in humans and the environment, attention and concerns have increased. The fluorine mass balance approach revealed unidentified organofluorine in environmental samples, with LC-MS/MS showing potential for analysis of PFAS. Different extraction methods resulted in varying recovery rates and EOF concentrations, highlighting the importance of method choice for target PFAS and EOF analysis.

PFAS Exposure Pathways for Humans and Wildlife: A Synthesis of Current Knowledge and Key Gaps in Understanding

Amila O. De Silva et al.

Summary: The understanding of human and wildlife exposures to PFAS has mainly focused on a few traditional substances, but there is a need for assessment of a wider range of new PFAS. Diet is a major pathway of human exposure to some PFAS, but there is significant variability across populations and compounds. Total fluorine data and information on unidentified organofluorine are essential, and water has been identified as a major exposure source in contaminated communities. As water sources are remediated, other sources of exposure such as dust, personal care products, and indoor environments may become more significant.

Occurrence and fate of legacy and novel per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in freshwater after an industrial fire of unknown chemical stockpiles

Jaye Marchiandi et al.

Summary: A study on the aftermath of an industrial fire in Melbourne, Australia revealed the widespread presence of various PFASs in surface water, with concentrations significantly impacted by the proximity to an industrial waste discharge point. The findings suggest that short-term risks to aquatic organisms from PFAS exposure may arise, emphasizing the importance of continued monitoring to evaluate potential long-term impacts on regional wildlife.

High levels of fluoroalkyl substances and potential disruption of thyroid hormones in three gull species from South Western France

M. Sebastiano et al.

Summary: The study investigated the occurrence of PFAS in three seabird species in South Western France, finding that the birds were exposed to levels comparable to highly contaminated species from other geographical areas. PFAS were negatively associated with the body condition of two studied species, with results being sex-dependent. For the great black-backed gull, a positive association was found between exposure to PFAS and TT3, suggesting a potential disrupting mechanism of PFAS exposure.
