Nanoplastics and ‘Forever Chemicals’ _02 (IMAGE)
Caption
Researchers at The University of Texas at El Paso, led by Mahesh Narayan, Ph.D., professor and chief of the Division of Biochemistry in UTEP’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, have made significant inroads in understanding how nanoplastics and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) — commonly known as forever chemicals — disrupt biomolecular structure and function. Their findings are described in two recent articles in the Journal of the American Chemical Society and ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces.
