Microbial Remediation of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Water: Mechanisms, Biotransformation, and Future Perspectives
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are synthetic fluorinated compounds widely recognized for their stability and persistence in the environment. These characteristics make PFAS valuable in many applications but also pose serious health risks because they do not break down easily. These chemicals can accumulate...
