“…This is why this chemical exhibited the highest abundance in GZ section. Brandsma et al (2015) found the highest concentrations of TBEP and TiBP in the sediments collected from the Western Scheldt estuary, an important shipping lane and industrialized area in the southern region of The Netherlands. TBEP was also found to have the highest concentration in the water of Maizuru Bay in Japan (Harino et al, 2014).…”

“…Sundkvist et al (2010) detected TCIPP (0.4e16 ng/g ww, wet weight), TPHP (0.04e2.3 ng/g ww) and TBOEP (0.86e4.2 ng/g ww) in fish tissues, which had similar PFR levels with those in fish from Netherland (Brandsma et al, 2015). Tri-ethylhexyl phosphate (TEHP) (6 ng/g ww) and 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate (EHDPHP) (3.5 ng/g ww) were reported as main PFRs in fish from Philippines (Kim et al, 2011a, b).…”

“…The occurrence of NBFRs and PFRs has been frequently reported in environment, including air, indoor dust, soil, and sediment (Brandsma et al, 2015;Cequier et al, 2014;Kim et al, 2014;Liu et al, 2014), but limited studies investigated their levels in biota, such as fish, wild birds, mammals or humans (van der Veen and de Boer, 2012;Wei et al, 2015). Sundkvist et al (2010) detected TCIPP (0.4e16 ng/g ww, wet weight), TPHP (0.04e2.3 ng/g ww) and TBOEP (0.86e4.2 ng/g ww) in fish tissues, which had similar PFR levels with those in fish from Netherland (Brandsma et al, 2015).…”

“…Tri-ethylhexyl phosphate (TEHP) (6 ng/g ww) and 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate (EHDPHP) (3.5 ng/g ww) were reported as main PFRs in fish from Philippines (Kim et al, 2011a, b). PFR values in fish tissues from the Dutch North Sea were not correlated with lipid percentage (Brandsma et al, 2015), suggesting that PFRs do not follow the same distribution as lipids like other PBDEs (Brandsma et al, 2015;Malarvannan et al, 2015). Based on the limited studies on PFRs in creatures, the bioaccumulation of PFRs seemed to be different from PBDEs (Brandsma et al, 2015;Kim et al, 2011a, b;Malarvannan et al, 2015;Sundkvist et al, 2010).…”

EH-TBB and BEH-TEBP might undergo hydrolysis in gastrointestinal tract, with 70% degradation of BEH-TEBP being reported in a gastrointestinal absorption model (Fang and Stapleton, 2014).…”

h i g h l i g h t sEH-TBB, BEH-TEBP and PFRs were measured in free-range chicken eggs. Chlorinated PFRs had higher detection frequencies than non-chlorinated PFRs in eggs. TPHP had a higher detection frequency in albumen; BEH-TEBP was higher in yolks. Dust ingestion is a more important pathway than egg intake in human exposure to PFRs. a r t i c l e i n f o b s t r a c tPhosphate flame retardants (PFRs) and novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) (2-ethylhexyl-2,3,4,5-tetrabromo-benzoate (EH-TBB) and bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrabromo-phthalate (BEH-TEBP)) were measured in free-range chicken eggs from three e-waste recycling sites and a negative control site located in Guangdong province, Southern China. BEH-TEBP, tris-(chloroethyl)-phosphate (TCEP), tris-(chloropropyl)-phosphate ( P TCPP, two isomers) and tris-(1,3-dichloroisopropyl)-phosphate (TDCIPP) were detected in more than 50% of eggs samples with low concentrations. The median values of BEH-TEBP and total PFRs were 0.17e0.46 ng/g ww (wet weight) and 1.62e2.59 ng/g ww in eggs from the e-waste sites, respectively. The results indicate that EH-TBB, BEH-TEBP and PFRs are less persistent and bioaccumulative than polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in chicken eggs, and possibly also in other bio-matrices. Triphenyl phosphate (TPHP) were identified in albumen with higher frequencies, but at similar concentrations compared to yolk, while BEH-TEBP was mainly detected in yolk. The estimated daily intake (EDI) of BEH-TEBP and total PFRs from consumption of chicken eggs ranged from 0.03 to 0.09 and 0.32e0.52 ng/kg bw/day for adults, and 0.20e0.54 and 1.89e3.02 ng/kg bw/day for children in ewaste sites, respectively. Indoor dust ingestion seems to be a more important pathway for the intake of these FRs, while egg consumption is probably a more important exposure pathway for PBDEs.
