Determination of polybrominated biphenyls in industrial ash and flue gas by GC-MS/MS: Method development, validation, and field application.
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) are legacy brominated flame retardants formerly utilized in plastics, electronics, and textiles. Currently, the simultaneous determination of mono- to deca-brominated PBBs in complex industrial matrices remains challenging due to wide bromination range and matrix interference. In this st...
