05 Apr 2024 --- Testing commissioned by the Mamavation blog and non-profit news site, Environmental Health Sciences (EHN) finds PFAS contamination in popular US bandage brands, including Band-Aid and Equate (Walmart). The tests were conducted by an Environmental Protection Agency-certified lab (EPA), and the findings were published in a Mamavation and EHN report. It revealed that 26 of the 40 bandages examined had high concentrations of organic fluorine, a “strong indicator” of PFAS.
