The occurrence of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs), tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and other phenolic brominated flame retardants (BFRs) in Irish foodstuffs has been assessed. A total of 53 food samples including eggs, milk, fish, fat and offal were tested. Eighty-one percent of the samples contained at least one measurable PBDE congener. The most abundant and frequently occurring congeners were BDE-47, BDE-49, BDE-99, BDE-100 and BDE-209 with the highest concentrations found in fish, fat and eggs. Summed concentrations for the measured PBDEs ranged from 0.02 μg/kg to 1.37 μg/kg whole weight. At least one HBCD stereoisomer was found in twenty-six percent of the samples with α-HBCD being the most frequently detected. The highest concentrations were found in fat and oily fish samples. TBBPA was only detected in one farmed salmon sample at 0.01 μg/kg. Bromophenol residues were found in fourteen out of the 53 samples, specifically in eggs and fish, with concentrations ranging from 0.28 to 0.98 μg/kg whole weight. These data contribute to the EU-wide EFSA risk assessment on these contaminants that is currently underway.
已经评估了多溴二苯醚 (PBDEs)、六溴环十二烷 (HBCDs)、四溴双酚 A (TBBPA) 和其他酚类溴系阻燃剂 (BFRs) 在爱尔兰食品中的存在情况。共测试了 53 种食品样本,包括鸡蛋、牛奶、鱼类、脂肪和内脏。81%的样本至少含有一种可测量的 PBDE 同系物。最丰富和经常出现的同系物是 BDE-47、BDE-49、BDE-99、BDE-100 和 BDE-209,其最高浓度出现在鱼类、脂肪和鸡蛋中。所测量的 PBDE 的总和浓度范围从 0.02μg/kg 到 1.37μg/kg 全重。在 26%的样本中发现了至少一种 HBCD 立体异构体,其中α-HBCD 是最常检测到的。最高浓度出现在脂肪和油性鱼类样本中。仅在一个养殖三文鱼样本中检测到 0.01μg/kg 的 TBBPA。在 53 个样本中的 14 个样本中发现了溴酚残留物,特别是在鸡蛋和鱼类中,浓度范围从 0.28μg/kg 到 0.98μg/kg 全重。这些数据为正在进行的欧盟范围内关于这些污染物的 EFSA 风险评估做出了贡献。
