When tested on their own and in mice, these bacterial strains from the human microbiome show promise in accumulating PFAS ...

New research shows that certain bacteria in the microbiome soak up "forever chemicals," or PFAS. The findings raise the possibility that probiotics could help remove some PFAS from our bodies.

Traces of a chemical that researchers fear could harm human reproduction have been found in dozens of Britain's rivers, a new study has warned. Researchers from York University found trifluoroacetic ...

Here's what you should know, including how to find out if any of the forever chemicals are in your water and how you can limit some exposure to PFAS. USAT analysis of EPA data shows how many water ...

"We need to do a better job at protecting source waters and reducing discharges of pollutants into water bodies," researcher ...

The USGS has revealed than around 71 to 95 million Americans may rely on groundwater supplies with detectable levels of PFAS.

A study published in the journal Nature Geoscience on April 8 found that higher amounts of PFAS (perfluoroalkyl substances) were found in drinking water in certain parts of the U.S.

PFAS are known as "forever chemicals" since they don't break down in the environment. Interactive map shows water systems where they've been found.

PFAS are commonly called "forever chemicals" because it can take thousands of years for them to break down in the environment. The traces are now found nearly everywhere — in air, water, and soil.

More than 100 million Americans are expected to benefit, including at least 660,000 in Illinois who get their drinking water from a utility that violates the new standards for PFAS.

Quest Diagnostics is offering a $300 test that will sample blood for nine different PFAS compounds, and how high additional health risks could be.

While the amount of PFOA and PFOS in blood has been decreasing with the phase-out of the chemicals, there are still thousands more that could show up.
