Number of Persistent Organic Pollutants Detected at High Concentrations in Blood Samples of the United States Population. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Human exposure to environmental chemicals as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is usually assessed considering each pollutant individually, with little attention to concentrations of mixtures in individuals or social groups.

Teratogenicity of polybrominated biphenyls in rats [PDF]
Environmental Research, 1977 Abstract The teratogenic potential of a mixture of polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) was investigated. Pregnant Wistar albino rats were given single doses of PBB in seasame oil by gavage on one day of pregnancy, from day 6 through 14 (sperm day = 0). The dose ranged from 40 to 800 mg/kg maternal body weight.

Immunological studies in cattle exposed to polybrominated biphenyls [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1978 The intactness of the immune system in cattle exposed to polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) has been investigated by using several immunoassays. Eighty-seven animals have been studied, 35 control animals (not exposed to PBBs) and 52 animals exposed to PBBs (0.02-30 ppm/g fat equivalent).

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers and polybrominated biphenyls in Australian sewage sludge
Chemosphere, 2008 This paper presents a brief review of the international scientific literature of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) in sewage sludge and a survey of these compounds in sewage sludge from 16 Australian wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The SigmaPBDE mean concentration in the Australian study was 1137microgkg(-1)

Recent Advancements in Known and Emerging Risk Factors of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Cancer Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 21, November 2025.ABSTRACT Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignancy and a leading cause of cancer‐related deaths worldwide. Despite advancements in antiviral therapies for hepatitis B (HBV) and hepatitis C (HCV), HCC incidence continues to rise due to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), obesity ...
