A recent study published in Environmental Health Perspectives suggests this unsettling possibility. Researchers followed 200 infants in New York State, led by Kristin Scheible (University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry), focusing on prenatal exposure 🤰 to PFAS — fluorinated compounds known as “forever pollutants” because of their persistence in the environment and the human body.
Multiple studies and publications confirm it. At CASC4DE, we regularly share this data and illustrate this reality with concrete examples (link):
An unprecedented case of water pollution has been detected in 17 rural municipalities across the Ardennes and Meuse departments in northeastern France.
In Dalton, Georgia — known as the “Carpet Capital of the World” 🧶 — a silent crisis is unfolding. Residents have discovered alarmingly high levels of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), the so-called “forever chemicals” 🧪, in their water 💦 and environment 🌱.
🧪 PFAS, the Eternal Pollutants PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic chemicals that persist in the environment and accumulate in living organisms.
At CASC4DE, we are always on the lookout for groundbreaking scientific advancements that resonate with our commitment to quality and sustainability across industries.
A groundbreaking study published on October 17, 2024 and led by research teams from the University of Birmingham and Shenzhen University, under the direction of Stuart Harrad and Yi Zhen, has revealed alarming levels of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), often called “forever chemicals,” in bottled and tap water worldwide.
TO LISTEN 🔈- A good summary of the PFAS issue with this podcast: their history, the cover-ups, the environmental and public health impacts… Behind this “revolution” lies a complex and unsavoury history…
📍France Info has just published a map of PFAS contamination in 89 tap water samples taken in France. But the 20 molecules analyzed represent only the tip of the iceberg, a small fraction of the total number of existing compounds.
In the context of ongoing PFAS crisis, CASC4DE proposes a quick NMR diagnosis to detect significant PFAS pollution by recognizing their distinctive NMR fingerprint.
