The photolysis of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) in aqueous solution under simulated solar light irradiation was studied under different conditions to find out mechanisms and pathways that control the transformation of TBBPA during photoreaction. Particular attention was paid to the identification

Neurotoxicological data on the widely used brominated flame retardant tetrabromobisphenol-A (TBBPA) is limited. Since recent studies indicated that inhibitory GABA(A) and excitatory α(4)β(2) nicotinic acetylcholine (nACh) receptors are sensitive targets for persistent organic pollutants, we investigated the effects of TBBPA

Thyroid hormone (TH) is essential for vertebrate brain development. Most research on TH and neuronal development focuses on late development, mainly the perinatal period in mammals. However, in human infants neuromotor development correlates best with maternal TH levels in the

Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a widely used brominated flame retardant, could negatively affect various aspects of mammalian and human physiology, which triggers effective techniques for its removal. In this work, the degradation characteristics of TBBPA in heterogeneous UV/Fenton reaction catalyzed by
