Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs) in Breast Milk and Neuropsychological Development in Infants
BACKGROUND There is increasing interest in the potential effects of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) on children's neuropsychological development, but only a few small studies have evaluated such effects. OBJECTIVES Our goal was to examine the association between PBDE concentrations in colostrum and infant neuropsychological development and to assess the influence of other persistent or...
متن کاملPolybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in U.S. mothers' milk.
No previous reports exist on polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners in human milk from individual U.S. mothers. This article on PBDEs is an extension of our previous studies on concentrations of dioxins, dibenzofurans, polychlorinated biphenyls, and other chlorinated organic compounds in human milk in a number of countries. PBDE commercial products are used as flame retardants in flexib...

متن کاملPolybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in house dust in Beijing, China.
Eleven house dust samples were collected in Beijing to quantify 42 different polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). Total PBDEs concentrations ranged from 140 to 1,300 ng g(-1). The dominant PBDEs congener identified was BDE 209, which made up more than 70% of all PBDEs congeners. Concentrations of PBDEs in Chinese house dust were lower than in other countries. The most polluted areas were ele...
متن کاملPolybrominated diphenyl ethers in UK human milk
24 Fourteen tri-deca polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were investigated in 35 human 25 milk samples from Birmingham, UK. While none of the hepta-nona BDEs (the main 26 components of the OctaBDE technical mixture) were above the limit of quantitation (LOQ); 27 BDE-47 (average concentration = 3.3 ng g lipid weight (lw)) was quantified in all samples 28 contributing 34-74% to Σtri-hexa BDEs ...
