PFAS in Freshwater Fish
|
We are currently collecting fish muscle samples to test for PFAS all across the state of Florida. Collection will continue until early 2025, with results expected summer 2025.
We are still looking for help collecting fish muscle at all inland freshwater areas in Florida. Please reach out if you have interest. Project lead: PhD graduate student Isabella Cioffi |
