Update of the risk assessment on emerging and novel brominated flame retardants in food
EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2012 risk assessment on Emerging and Novel brominated flame retardants (BFRs) in food. Since the previous Opinion, further information was collected for a total of 27 BFRs. The CONTAM Panel concluded that TDBPP, DBPNG and TBNPA are considered genotoxic and carcinogenic.

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.

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 2003-2018, June 2026.ABSTRACT Humans are chronically exposed to mixtures of environmental contaminants. Exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) contributes to increased health impairment observed globally. This study aimed to evaluate the endocrine‐disruptive and oxidative stress potential of a human‐relevant, complex chemical mixture in vitro.

Microplastic Impacts on Seafood: A Global Synthesis of Experimental Findings
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 591-606, May 2026.ABSTRACT Plastic pollution is a growing global concern, with plastic and microplastic particles now widespread in aquatic environments. Microplastics are frequently ingested by marine organisms, including commercially important seafood species. Ingestion can lead to a range of biological effects, influenced by the size, type and quantity of plastic, as

POLYBROMINATED DIPHENYL ETHERS (PBDEs) AND POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBs) IN HOUSEHOLD DUST IN BIRMINGHAM, UK. [PDF]
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants that were used primarily as insulating fluids in electrical equipment and were banned in the 1970s, even so they are still being found in humans.
