Human exposure to polybrominated diphenyl ethers through the diet

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), a class of brominated flame retardants, are used in a variety of consumer products being produced in notable quantities. PBDEs have been detected in environmental samples. In recent years, a marked increase in the levels of PBDEs in human biological tissues and fluids, especially breast milk, has been observed in some countries. As for other persistent organic pollutants (POPs), dietary intake is very probably the main route of exposure to PBDEs for the general population. This paper reviews the state of the science regarding human exposure to PBDEs through the diet. Because of the scarce information about it, it is concluded that studies focused on determining PBDE exposure for the population of a number of countries are clearly required. The correlation of PBDE body burdens and dietary intake of PBDEs are also necessary.

环境中多溴联苯醚类(PBDEs)化合物污染研究

由于环境中PBDEs的浓度在快速增长且已在世界各地普遍存在,又因PBDEs的化学结构与PCB和DDT非常相似,因此PBDEs的环境毒性越来越多地受到学者们的关注。本文介绍PBDEs在环境介质中如水介质（河流、海洋、废水和沉积物）,野生动物（海洋哺乳动物、鱼）和人体组织内（母乳、血清、脂肪）的分布及其毒性效应和对人类健康的威胁,着重介绍美国所进行的两个研究实例,也介绍了有关国家对PBDEs采取的预防和控制措施。     

A Novel Sample Pretreatment Method for the Analysis of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers in Polymers of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment(WEEE)

A fast sample pretreatment method was developed to determine polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in polymers from waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). Polymers were firstly prepared into "polymer film" to facilitate a complete Soxtec extraction. Then, three extraction parameters (including hot plate temperature, boiling time, and rinsing time) were optimized based on the recovery of target in reference polymer samples. The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of PBDEs in standard plastic materials from WEEE and the extraction yields of PBDEs ranged from 78.9% to 91.3%. The detection limits of PBDEs were 0.05–0.10 µg/g, indicating this method can be used as a quality assurance and quality control procedure of PBDEs in the production of electrical and electronic equipment.

Many years of experiences in internal quality control in the toxicological analysis of biological material in the field of occupational medicine

Summary Toxicological analysis in blood and urine for biological monitoring of occupationally exposed persons must be carried out in the Federal Republic of Germany under an internal and external quality control scheme. The results of many years of experiences with 5 commercially available control specimens (1 blood, 1 serum, 3 urine samples) from three companies for internal quality assurance are presented. Precision and accuracy were evaluated by comparison of our results with the data of the initial period (within day precision of the methods) and the assigned values. Over years the commercially available control specimens show good comparable results. Except in a few cases, there was a good agreement between our results and the assigned values. An expected worldwide increase of the importance of biological monitoring makes the availability of control specimens for everyday use a prerequisite in effective internal quality control. This is especially valid for the determination of organic compounds, e.g. solvents and pesticides in blood and urine samples.     

Determination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in milk samples. Development of green extraction coupled techniques for sample preparation

Ultrasound‐assisted extraction (UAE), cloud point extraction (CPE), and ultrasound back‐extraction (UABE) techniques have been coupled for lixiviation, preconcentration, and cleanup of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) from milk samples for determination by gas chromatography‐electron capture detection (GC‐ECD). Physicochemical parameters that affect the efficiency of the extraction system were investigated using a design of experiments based on multivariate statistical tools, and considering the sample matrix along the development. The coupling of the leaching step, UAE, enhanced ca. 3.5 times the extraction efficiency of the former sample preparation methodology (CPE‐UABE) leading to cleaner sample extracts suitable for GC analysis. Under optimum conditions, the proposed methodology exhibits successful performance in terms of linearity and precision, with recoveries in the range of 68–70% and LODs within the range 0.05–0.5 ng/g dry weight (d.w.). The proposed sample preparation methodology coupled three green analytical techniques. It expands the application frontiers of CPE for the analysis of biological samples by GC. The optimized methodology was used for determination of PBDEs in powder milk samples, from both commercial and human sources.     

Determination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in marine biological tissues using microwave-assisted extraction

Growing concern on the environmental impact of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) has created the need for rapid and quality assured analytical methods to quantify PBDEs in a spectrum of matrix types. This study presents the first validated method for the quantification of major PBDE congeners (47, 99 and 100) in marine biological tissues using microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). The recovery of polychlorinated biphenyls and various organochlorine pesticides has also been ascertained. Analytical accuracy, precision, limits of detection and cleanup efficiency were evaluated for PBDE congeners, and empirical data justifies the use of MAE for the extraction and analysis of PBDEs in biological matrices. MAE was also compared to Soxhlet extraction efficiency for PBDEs in the standard reference materials SRM2978 and SRM1588a and gave comparable results (<15% variation).     

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes coated fibers for solid-phase microextraction of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in water and milk samples before gas chromatography with electron-capture detection

Determination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in environmental samples has raised great concerns due to the widespread use of PBDEs and their potential risk to humans. Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is a fast, simple, cost-effective, and green sample preparation technique and is widely used for environmental analysis, but reports on the application of SPME for determination of PBDEs are very limited, and only a few publications dealing with commercial SPME fibers are available for extraction of PBDEs. Herein, we report a novel SPME method using multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as the SPME fiber coating for gas chromatography with electron-capture detection (GC-ECD) of PBDEs in environmental samples. The MWCNTs coating gave much higher enhancement factors (616-1756) than poly (5% dibenzene-95% dimethylsiloxane) coating (139-384) and activated carbon coating (193-423). Thirty-minute extraction of 10 mL of sample solution using the MWCNTs coated fiber for GC-ECD determination yielded the limits of detection of 3.6-8.6 ng L(-1) and exhibited good linearity of the calibration functions (r(2)>0.995). The precision (RSD%, n=4) for peak area and retention time at the 500 ng L(-1) level was 6.9-8.8% and 0.6-0.9%, respectively. The developed method was successfully applied for the analysis of real samples including local river water, wastewater, and milk samples. The recovery of the PBDEs at 500 ng L(-1) spiked in these samples ranged from 90 to 119%. No PBDEs were detected in the river water and skimmed milk samples, whereas in the wastewater sample, 134-215 ng L(-1) of PBDEs were found. The PBDEs were detected in all whole fat milk samples, ranging from 13 to 484 ng L(-1). In a semiskimmed milk sample, only BDE-47 was found at 21 ng L(-1).

Determination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in human milk samples in the Czech Republic: Comparative study of negative chemical ionisation mass spectrometry and time-of-flight high-resolution mass spectrometry

In the Czech Republic no study on the levels of brominated flame retardants in human milk has been conducted, yet. In the first step analytical method for determination of PBDEs in this bioindicator matrix was implemented. Liquid–liquid extraction (LLE) (hexane, diethyl ether), followed by gel permeation chromatography was employed for isolation of PBDEs. Identification and quantification of PBDEs was carried out by GC–MS operated in negative chemical ionisation (NCI). Two mass spectrometric technologies, one employing quadrupole and the other one high resolution (HR) time-of-flight (TOF) analyzer, etc. were used in our study. Detection limits (LODs) obtained by quadrupole analyzer ranged from 0.02 to 0.05 ng g⁻¹ lipid weight, using high resolution time-of-flight analyzer LODs were significantly lower, ranging from 0.002–0.005 ng g⁻¹ lipid weight, what enabled detection of minor PBDE congeners.

Within this pilot study 103 breast milk samples, obtained from mothers living in Olomouc region, were examined. Ten PBDE congeners were determined. All samples examined till now contained PBDEs residues, the dominating contaminant representing this group was congener BDE 47. In most of analysed samples levels of this compound ranged from 0.2 to 2 ng g⁻¹ of lipid weight. Three exceptionally contaminated samples, containing levels of PBDEs 5–10 times higher than other samples, were found.     

Method development for the analysis of polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins, dibenzofurans and diphenyl ethers in sediment samples

A column chromatography procedure was developed for the clean-up of solvent-extracted sediment samples for the fractionation of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBDD/Fs). The procedure included multiple column chromatography steps for clean-up for the separation of PBDEs from PBDD/Fs. The separation of the two chemical groups overcame the mutual interfering problem during the GC-ion trap MS analysis. The method was validated with the analysis of quality control samples. The method accuracy represented with relative error was less than 16% for all targeted PBDEs and PBDD/Fs congeners. Recoveries of the ¹³C-labeled standards ranged from 64% to 117% with relative standard deviation from 7.3% to 15%. Results from the analysis of environmental sediment samples collected in the vicinity of a recycling site for electronic wastes showed high levels of PBDEs (1.5-12 ng/g, dry weight), trace levels of PBDFs (0.025-0.92 ng/g, dry weight) and non-detectable PBDDs.
