Concentrations and chiral signatures of polychlorinated biphenyls in outdoor and indoor air and soil in a major U.K. conurbation [PDF]
Concentrations and chiral signatures of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were measured in outdoor air (using Polyurethane foam (PUF) - disk passive samplers) and surface soil samples taken at approximately monthly intervals over 1 year at 10 locations on

Exposure to polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) suppresses the release of pro-inflammatory products by alveolar macrophages in vitro [PDF]
Endocrine disrupting chemicals have adverse effects on immune function that may result in respiratory conditions. Inhalation of dust is a major route of exposure to PBDEs; however, the impact of PBDEs on the immune response is unclear.
