Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers: Occurrence, Dietary Exposure, and Toxicology

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2001
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are used as flame retardants in plastics (concentration, 5--30%) and in textile coatings. Commercial products consist predominantly of penta-, octa-, and decabromodiphenyl ether mixtures, and global PBDE production is about 40,000 tons per year.

FIGO committee opinion: Environmental drivers of obstetric health and early childhood development

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 171, Issue 3, Page 951-964, December 2025.
Abstract Environmental exposures are increasingly recognized as critical, yet underappreciated, determinants of reproductive, perinatal, and early childhood health. Developed through a structured consensus process and grounded in systematic evidence review, this FIGO committee opinion provides a comprehensive synthesis of the current evidence linking ...

Risk prioritisation of (emerging) contaminants in aquaculture production

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue S1, December 2025.
Abstract The European Union (EU) food safety legislative framework is designed to guarantee the safety of the entire food production chain through a comprehensive ‘from farm to fork’ approach. Chemical safety of the food production chain, encompassing contaminants, veterinary drugs and pesticide residues, food/feed additives, is further regulated by a ...

Exposure to polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) during childhood and adiposity measures at age 8 years

Environment International, 2019
Background: Animal studies suggest polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) may be obesogens. However, epidemiologic studies investigating childhood exposure to PBDEs and adiposity are limited, with several reporting an inverse association.
