AbstractWith the support of the Chemical Measurement and Imaging Program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Hao Chen of the New Jersey Institute of Technology focuses on the development of a new mass spectrometric approach for detecting elusive intermediates involved in the degradation of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). PFASs, widely regarded as "forever chemicals", are extremely stable due to their high carbon-fluorine (C-F) bond energies. From a human health perspective, PFAS exposu
