In this study we investigated the accumulation, tissue-specific distribution and possible
debromination of BDE 209 in a terrestrial songbird species, the European starling, using …

Accumulation and evidence of debromination of the flame retardant 2, 2′, 3, 3′, 4, 4′, 5,
5′, 6, 6′-decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) have been reported for biota, including …

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are extensively used as a class of flame retardants
and have become ubiquitous environmental pollutants. Significant biotransformation of …

The congener 2, 2 ', 3, 3 ', 4, 4 ', 5, 5 ', 6, 6 '-decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE 209) is the
primary component in a commonly used flame retardant known as decaBDE. This flame …

Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE209) is the primary component in a commonly used flame
retardant. Previous studies had proved that BDE209 itself was not toxic, while its metabolites …

While decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) has very low bioavailability and a rapid
biotransformation rate, it exhibits high bioaccumulation in wildlife. To explore the …

Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209), the primary constituent of a widely used flame
retardant formulation, is present at relatively high levels in sediments and …

Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE 209), the major congener in the high volume industrial
flame retardant mixture “DecaBDE”, has recently been shown to be metabolized by carp. To …

Birds of prey from Northern China (Beijing area) were examined for polybrominated
diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). A total of 47 specimens from eight different species were …

In the present study, the tissue distribution of [14C]-labelled 2, 2′, 4, 4′-tetrabrominated
diphenyl ether (PBDE 47) and its possible metabolites was investigated after dietary …
