General description

Decabromodiphenyl ether undergoes debromination in the presence of microbe and zero-valent iron. It is widely used as industrial flame retardant. Photodebromination of decabromodiphenyl ether adsorbed onto six different solid matrixes has been investigated.

This study was conducted to develop a method for the determination of decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) in indoor dust from different microenvironments in a university in the Philippines. BDE-209 was extracted from dust samples by ultrasonication and determined by HPLC-UV. The

Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE 209), the major congener in the high volume industrial flame retardant mixture "DecaBDE", has recently been shown to be metabolized by carp. To further explore this phenomenon, juvenile rainbow trout were exposed to BDE 209 via the
