TL;DR: The values of the concentrations, seasonal variations, bioaccessibility, and associated human daily intake of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in in- and out-house dust collected in Shanghai, China were much lower than most estimates in the literature, suggesting that the intake of PBDEs may have been overestimated.

TL;DR: The results indicated that human exposure to PBDEs via food ingestion might have been significantly overestimated and the exposure assessment could be misleading if the bioaccessibility ofPBDEs was not considered.

TL;DR: Compared to molecular weight, molecular volume seems to be the better standard for analyzing the influence of molecular size on biomagnification.

TL;DR: The bioaccessibility of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in 13 types of foods was determined using an in vitro digestion method and it was found that the bio accessibility of PBDEs exhibited positive correlations with fat and carbohydrate contents and negative correlations with protein and dietary fiber contents in the foods.

TL;DR: In this paper, the exposure risks of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) via consumption of nine fish species from Taihu Lake in China and associated benefits, through ingestion of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) in fish, were evaluated.
