Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a class of brominated flame-retardants (BFRs).
As for other persistent organic pollutants, dietary intake (followed by dust inhalation) is the …

Fluorinated liquid-crystal monomers (FLCMs) widely used in liquid crystal displays are
considered to be a new generation of persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic contaminants …

Abstract Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) and its substitute decabromodiphenyl ethane
(DBDPE) are heavily used in various industrial products as flame retardant. They have been …
