This photo illustration shows GenX molecules superimposed over a stream. The interaction between GenX and water leads to the formation of micelles, which occur in higher concentrations near surfaces.
Last fall, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reported that GenX chemicals were more toxic than the “forever chemicals” they were developed to replace.
Now, a new study from the University at Buffalo in New York examines what happens when GenX — chemicals used in food...
