General description

Decabromodiphenyl ether undergoes debromination in the presence of microbe and zero-valent iron. It is widely used as industrial flame retardant. Photodebromination of decabromodiphenyl ether adsorbed onto six different solid matrixes has been investigated.

Decabromodiphenyl ether (decaBDE) is a brominated flame retardant used in many commercial products such as televisions, computers, and textiles. Recent reports indicate that decaBDE adversely affects male reproductive organs in mice, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. We hypothesized
