It’s been a while since our last PFAS update, as we’ve been working on a raft of publications to kick off 2026. We have three new manuscripts ranging from novel methodologies to study gas phase kinetics, to direct-inject PFCA separation methods for aqueous samples, and all the way to a multi-year depositional study of TFA in Toronto. You can check them out here:

D. Persaud, S. Joudan, T. C. VandenBoer, C. J. Young*. Atmospheric removal of trifluoroacetic acid by dry and wet deposition: a multi-year analysis in Toronto. Environmental Science & Technology Letters.

J. Clouthier, T. C. VandenBoer, C. J. Young*. Direct-inject suppressed ion chromatography-mass spectrometry method with online preconcentration for short- and ultra short-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids in fresh water. Analytical Methods

A. A. Colussi, T. C. VandenBoer, J. Liggio*, C. J. Young*. Atmospheric fate of 4:2 fluorotelomer alcohol using an oxidation flow reactor and proton transfer reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts
