Even substitute PFAS cause metabolic stress in zebrafish embryos
Publishing in the Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances, researchers from Kyushu University used zebrafish embryos to study the health effects of the PFAS called PFBS (perfluorobutanesulfonic acid), a substitute PFAS thought to be safer than traditional compounds. They found that while PFBS did not generate any obvious external dysfunction, the compound still gets absorbed and accumulates in…
