Since the 1970s, an increasing number of regulations have expanded the use of brominated
and chlorinated flame retardants. Many of these chemicals are now recognized as global …

Dechlorane Plus (DP) is a high production volume, chlorinated flame retardant. Despite its
long production history, it was only recently found in the environment. The first “sightings” of …

We measured the concentrations of 60 flame retardants (and related compounds) in fish
samples collected in the Great Lakes basin. These analytes include dechlorane-related …

The distribution of dechloranes, a group of chlorinated flame retardants, were investigated in
air, soil, and sediment around a newly discovered Dechlorane Plus (DP) production facility …

The presence of microplastics and synthetic microfibers in the environment is increasing,
causing an accumulation in the food chain because their ingestion by different organisms in …

Intensive research has been carried out in the past few years on the occurrence and
behavior of dechlorane plus (DP) in the environment, biota and humans. This review …

Abstract Although Dechlorane Plus (DP) has been used as a polychlorinated flame retardant
for almost half a century, its detection in the environment was not reported until 2006. The …

Marine boundary layer air and seawater samples taken during a polar expedition cruise
from East China Sea to the Arctic were analyzed in order to compare the occurrence …

In this study, we measured the concentrations of 65 flame retardants in water samples from
five Lake Michigan tributaries. These flame retardants included organophosphate esters …

The concentrations of 13 currently used brominated flame retardants (BFRs) were analyzed
in 16 sediment cores collected from the North American Great Lakes. Among them, 1, 2-bis …
