AMHERST, Mass. (WWLP)– Two researchers at UMass Amherst have been working on a new, easier, and less expensive way to detect per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in water. Chang Liu, associate ...

As its researchers emphasize, though – the new testing method is still in its early stages. But as Liu tells WAMC, the path to better detection and possibly portable PFAS detectors is looking bright. ...

University of Massachusetts Amherst professors Xiaojun Wei, pictured here, and Chang Liu believe they have discovered a new method to detect per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — “forever chemicals” ...

Used for decades in coatings, textiles, packaging, and other materials, they provide water and oil repellency, chemical ...

Synthetic PFAS are known as "forever chemicals," lingering in water, cookware, cosmetic products, clothing, and even our blood as they resist breaking down. They're infamous for being hard to detect.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are chemicals that contaminate many communities in the United States. Our expert committee will examine the health outcomes associated with the most widely ...

A Duke University study has revealed how a previously undetectable form of PFAS pollution moved through Burlington’s wastewater system for years, transforming into more toxic chemicals and ...
