Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolites of Organophosphate Flame Retardants and 2-Ethylhexyl Tetrabromobenzoate in Urine from Paired Mothers and Toddlers
TL;DR: Children had higher urinary levels of BDCIPP, DPHP, ip-DPHP, and TBBA as compared to their mothers, suggesting higher exposure to flame retardant levels as a result of increased hand-mouth behavior and elevated dust exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring Indoor Exposure to Organophosphate Flame Retardants: Hand Wipes and House Dust
TL;DR: PFR exposures are widespread, and hand-to-mouth contact or dermal absorption may be important pathways of exposure, according to monitoring indoor exposure to organophosphate flame retardants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to Polyfluoroalkyl Chemicals and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in U.S. Children 12–15 Years of Age
TL;DR: Ass associations between exposures to four PFCs and parental report of diagnosis of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are consistent with increased odds of ADHD in children with higher serum PFC levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flame retardant associations between children's handwipes and house dust.
TL;DR: The data suggest that exposure to these alternative FRs will be similar to PBDE exposure, and the influence of hand-to-mouth behavior in children's exposure needs to be further examined to better estimate exposure potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Verónica M Vieira,Kate Hoffman,Hyeong-Moo Shin,Janice Weinberg,Thomas F. Webster,Tony Fletcher +5 more
TL;DR: Higher PFOA serum levels may be associated with testicular, kidney, prostate, and ovarian cancers and non-Hodgkin lymphoma among residents living near the DuPont Teflon-manufacturing plant in Parkersburg, West Virginia.
