The occurrence and profiles of 15 organophosphate flame retardants/plasticizers (OPFRs)(3
chlorinated [Cl-], 2 aryl-, 5 non-Cl alkyl-, and 5 other types of OPFRs) were investigated in …

Background: Organophosphate flame retardants (PFRs) are becoming popular
replacements for the phased-out polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) mixtures, and they …

retardants (PBDEs) are among the highest worldwide. PBDEs are known endocrine …

Semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) are ubiquitous in indoor environments,
redistributing from their original sources to all indoor surfaces. Exposures resulting from their …

This paper critically examines indoor exposure to semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs)
via dermal pathways. First, it demonstrates that–in central tendency–an SVOC's abundance …

We compared the human exposure to organophosphate flame retardants (PFRs) via
inhalation, dust ingestion, and dermal absorption using different sampling and assessment …

Organophosphate flame retardants (PFRs) are widely used as replacements for
polybrominated diphenyl ethers in consumer products. With high detection in indoor …
