March 2019 in “JAT. Journal of applied toxicology/Journal of applied toxicology” In this study, PFOS exposure altered steroid hormone levels and enzyme activities related to steroidogenesis in juvenile Silurana tropicalis, with effects differing between male and female frogs.
December 2023 in “The journal of physical chemistry. B (1997 : Online)” This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.
October 2023 in “arXiv (Cornell University)” This study investigated the ability of a human hair keratin dimer to absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutane sulfonate, finding high binding affinities that suggest potential for hair-derived materials in water filtration technologies.
