Brominated flame retardants and perfluoroalkyl substances in sediments from the Czech aquatic ecosystem

Original language description

This study reports results of analysis of various groups of halogenated chemicals, including brominated flame retardants (BFRs), such as polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs), tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in 31 sediment samples collected in different localities of the Czech Republic. In this survey, identification of potential sources of these compounds was also performed; therefore several sampling sites located in highly industrialized areas were involved. Concentrations of target groups of analytes determined in sediments from several Czech rivers examined within this study decreased in the following order: decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE 209) ? TBBPA ~ HBCDs ~ linear perfluorooctane sulfonate (L-PFOS) } other PBDEs ~ perfluorinated carboxylic acids (PFCAs) ~ perfluorooctane sulfonamide (FOSA). When compared the contamination by two monitored groups of halogenated compounds, the total content of ? BFRs was signifi
