Scholar-generated biography
PENG Hui, affiliated with the University of Toronto, investigates environmental chemical protein interactions, focusing on the occurrence, fate, and biological impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), antibiotics, and other contaminants. Their research explores human exposure pathways, ecological risks, and molecular mechanisms of toxicity. Key studies include the distribution of PFAS in aquatic ecosystems, antibiotic resistance in river basins, and the effects of contaminants on endangered species like the Chinese sturgeon. The work also addresses the presence of these chemicals in consumer products such as food packaging and school uniforms, emphasizing environmental and public health implications.
