Organophosphate and halogenated flame retardants in atmospheric particles from a European Arctic site.

TL;DR: Levels of 13 organophosphate esters (OPEs) and 45 brominated and chlorinated flame retardants (BFRs) were measured in particle phase atmospheric samples collected at Longyearbyen on Svalbard in the European Arctic from September 2012 to May 2013, and ΣOPE concentrations were 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than the ΣBFR concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

High Levels of Organophosphate Flame Retardants in the Great Lakes Atmosphere

TL;DR: Levels of 12 organophosphate flame retardants (OPs) were measured in particle phase samples collected at five sites in the North American Great Lakes basin from March 2012 to December 2012 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hair and Nails as Noninvasive Biomarkers of Human Exposure to Brominated and Organophosphate Flame Retardants

TL;DR: PBDE levels in the hair and nail samples were significantly correlated with their levels in serum (P < 0.05), suggesting that human hair and nails can be used as biomarkers to assess human exposure to PBDEs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Has the phase-out of PBDEs affected their atmospheric levels? Trends of PBDEs and their replacements in the Great Lakes atmosphere.

TL;DR: Positive relationships indicate that the replacement of the deca-BDE commercial product by DBDPE and the penta- BDE product by Firemaster 550 have not yet become evident in the Great Lakes' atmospheric environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioaccumulation of Dechloranes, organophosphate esters, and other flame retardants in Great Lakes fish

TL;DR: These findings suggest that the Decs and BFRs with 3-6 bromines are more bioaccumulative in the fish than the OPEs and high molecular weight B FRs.
