Organophosphate Flame Retardants in Shanghai Indoor Dust: A 2016 Historical Baseline of Seasonal Variability, Microenvironmental Profiles, and Human Exposure

Organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) are additive chemicals that migrate from indoor materials and accumulate in settled dust. This study retrospectively characterized eight OPFRs in floor dust collected in Shanghai during 2016 to establish a seasonally resolved historical reference. A total of 136 residential dust...

The Occurrence of Emerging Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in Indoor Dust from Different Microenvironments in South China.

Despite extensive research on the environmental contamination of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), their occurrence across diverse indoor microenvironments remains insufficiently characterized. In this study, we analyzed a broad spectrum of PFAS in dust samples collected from residential settings (n = 14) and...
