• Organic micropollutants in marine plastics debris from the open ocean and remote and urban beaches. (2011, background): “Stranded plastic fragments and resin pellets were collected from remote beaches at Marbella Beach (Costa Rica; CRPE1–5 and CRPP1–5) and Thinh Long, Tonking Bay (Vietnam; TKPE1–2 and TKPP1–3) and urban beaches at Odaiba (Tokyo; ODPE0–3 and ODPP0–2), Kugenuma (Kanagawa; KNPE2–6 and KNPP1–3) and Seal B”
• Levels and trends of brominated flame retardants in the European environment. (2006, background): “The study by Hites et al. (2004a) of BDEs in farmed and wild salmon has served to highlight the dilemma surrounding the consumption of fatty fish.”
• Global Water Pollution and Human Health (2010, background): “Management of contaminated sites in Western Europe: topic report No.”
• Prenatal Exposure to PBDEs and Neurodevelopment (2010, background): “PBDEs are persistent organic chemicals, and some congeners can bioaccumulate; therefore they have become ubiquitous contaminants detectable in the environment, in animals, and in humans (Hites 2004; Sjodin et al. 2008b).”
• The complex interaction between marine debris and toxic chemicals in the ocean. (2012, background): “…151 − 154 A variety of marine mammals were found with PBDE concentrations ranging from 0.42 to 4950 ppb with a average concentration of 793 ppb. 155 In humans, it is not clear whether PDBE levels in breast milk and blood correlate with dietary intake: some studies suggest such a correlation,…”
