Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) have routinely been added to consumer products for
several decades in a successful effort to reduce fire-related injury and property damage …

Recent increases in the magnitude and rate of environmental change, including habitat loss,
climate change and overexploitation, have been directly linked to the global loss of …

In this paper, we review those data which have recently become available for brominated
flame retardants (particularly the brominated diphenyl ethers (BDEs) and …

Environmental change has negatively affected most biological systems on our planet and is
becoming of increasing concern for the well-being and survival of many species. At an …

Environmental exposure to organophosphate esters (OPEs) continues to be a concern. Little
is known about their bioaccumulation and trophodynamics, especially in tropical food webs …

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) containing two to seven bromines are ubiquitous
in Arctic biotic and abiotic samples (from zooplankton to polar bears (Ursus maritimus) and …

The current state-of-the-art of passive sampling and/or extraction methods for long-term
monitoring of pollutants in different environmental compartments is discussed in this review …

Brominated flame retardants (BFR) are endocrine disrupters in experimental systems, both
in vitro and in vivo. Although BFR effects on thyroid hormones are well confirmed, studies of …

In this paper, we review the available data for polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDEs) and
other flame retardants in wildlife, with the exception of fishes from Europe and North America …

Foodstuffs may be contaminated by organophosphate esters (OPEs) and become an
important source of human exposure since OPEs are ubiquitous in the environment. In the …
