Since the 1970s, an increasing number of regulations have expanded the use of brominated
and chlorinated flame retardants. Many of these chemicals are now recognized as global …

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs)
are a group of dangerous compounds, emitted mostly from anthropogenic sources, that have …

Polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBDD/Fs) have been recognised as
environmental pollutants for decades but their occurrence in food has only recently been …

Polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans (PBDD/Fs) are emerging persistent organic
pollutants (POPs) that have similar or higher toxicities than the notorious dioxins. Toxicities …

Primitive processing of e-waste potentially releases abundant organic contaminants to the
environment, but the magnitudes and mechanisms remain to be adequately addressed. We …

The emission of and exposure to tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) during the production of
