Abstract

Brominated flame retardants (BFR) are chemicals widely used in a variety of household and commercial products including plastics, electric equipment, textiles, and polyesters in order to prevent fire [1,2]. Many of them bioaccumulate in the environment and have been found in water, air, biota, human tissues, breast milk, and blood [3-6]. House dust and food represent two important sources of human exposure [5,7].
