Abstract |
Currently, deca-brominated diphenyl ether (deca-BDE) has been included in the list of proposed chemicals under the Stockholm Convention while some other congeners (tetra-, penta-, hexa-bromodiphenyl other) were banned a few years ago. They had been produced and utilized widely until the early 21st century due to the presumption to be less toxic than lower brominated congeners. Nowadays, their bioaccumulation in the food chain and chronic toxicity has led to the proliferation of food matrices analyses. However, there are still limited reports related to this subject owing to less universal interest. Herein, seventy-five marine samples from various fish and shellfish were selected and analyzed using gas chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectroscopy to monitoring deca-BDE contamination. The primitive concentration of deca-DBE and the average food consumption of Korean general population, which referred to Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used to estimate the dietary intake of this contaminants. The ultimate aim of this study is gaining an understanding of the health risk causing by daily dietary exposure of deca-BDE. |
