Politico reported that Cuomo criticized Newburgh for naming the state and several of its entities in notices of intent to sue dated Feb. 21 and mailed to 10 potential defendants in a possible lawsuit over
perfluorooctane sulfonate contamination of Washington Lake.
A botanical infusion of sage, coltsfoot, yarrow, balm mint, chamomile, rosemary, althea, wild thyme, horsetail, cucumber, and kelp in purified water; certified organic aloe barbadensis; C14 - 16

Rather than sulfates, which are chemically - produced lathering agents, Babo
use sulfonates, which have an important and distinct difference: they are naturally occurring and chemical - free!
A single IV dose proved superior to multiple doses of 2 -
Mercaptoethane sulfonate sodium (MESNA), the current standard of care, in suppressing chemotherapy - induced bladder hemorrhaging in an experimental model.
To overcome these drawbacks new, alternative materials, in
particular sulfonated random and multiblock - copolymers, are in the focus of research.
Cross-sections and surfaces of
sulfonated poly (phenylene sulfone) multiblock - copolymers were examined as recast membranes at different humidification levels.
The most commonly used mist suppressants are based on perfluorooctane
sulfonate acid and its salts (PFOS).
The environmental occurrence of a chlorinated polyfluorinated
ether sulfonate (locally called F - 53B) was discovered by scientists from Tsinghua University in Beijing and NIVA in wastewater from the chrome plating industry in the city of Wenzhou, China.
Combining an over-based calcium -
sulfonate complex thickener and polymeric technology, it provides maximum wear protection to meet Caterpillar's requirements for pin and bushing applications.
The technical names sound daunting or even scary (inorganic acids, polysaccharide polymers and
sulfonated alcohol, for instance), but these CleanStream chemicals (Halliburton's terminology) are found in cheese and beer, canned fish and dairy desserts, and marshmallows and shampoo, respectively.
The Department of Environmental Conservation discovered high levels of
perfluorooctane sulfonate, or PFOS, in well water samples taken near the airport earlier this month.

Alkyl benzene
sulfonates or ABS (also linear alkyl benzene sulfonates or LAS, linear alkyl sodium sulfonates)
In May, Newburgh's main water source, Lake Washington, tested at more than 140 parts per trillion for Perfluorooctane
sulfonate, or PFOS, which is about twice the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's recommended safety limit of 70 parts per trillion.
Perfluorooctane
sulfonate is used in firefighting foam, particularly the type deployed by airport fire departments.
The chemical, perfluorooctane
sulfonate, or PFOS, has been linked to liver and kidney problems as well as immune system issues.
Democratic U.S. Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, along with U.S. Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, who represents Newburgh, said in a letter to the EPA that they want the agency to provide testing and planning assistance to Newburgh to determine how perfluorooctane
sulfonate, or PFOS, got into Silver Stream and Washington Lake.
Perfluorooctane
sulfonate, or PFOS, and perfluorooctanoic acid, or PFOA, have been identified by the Environmental Protection Agency as «contaminants of emerging concern.»
Relative to the 1980s, a decrease in risk from legacy POPs is evident for bear cubs, mainly because of international control measures; however, the composition of POPs substantially changes, and the contribution of new POPs (particularly perfluorooctane
sulfonate) is increasing.
The researchers tested their blood for two types of PFCs between their fourth and 14th weeks: perfluorooctane
sulfonate (PFOS), which is found in some cloth and paper products, and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), found in carpets and personal care products.
In alligators, plasma levels of perfluorooctane
sulfonate (PFOS) ranged from 1,360 to 452,000 parts per trillion.
In the five years since 3M phased out products based on the persistent organic pollutant perfluorooctane
sulfonate, levels of perfluoronated contaminants in the blood of U.S. residents have dropped by half.
In 2006, the EPA helped arrange a deal in which the eight American companies that make or use perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane
sulfonate (PFOS) would stop doing so.
