Decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) is a kind of new brominated flame retardants, which is widely used as a replace of decabromodiphenyl ether in electronic appliances, textiles and other goods. This review summarizes environmental levels and body burden of human beings of DBDPE in recent years. The data shows that the concentration of DBDPE in the environment and human tissues shows an upward trend. According to limited experiments about its toxicity, DBDPE shows similar toxicity to decabromodiphenyl ether. DBDPE can interfere thyroid hormones balance, and cause damage to liver, reproductive development, kidney, et al, which implies that DBDPE might be another new persistent organic pollutant. Further researches are needed.
十溴二苯乙烷（DBDPE）是一种新型溴化阻燃剂，在电子电器、纺织品及其他产品中广泛用作十溴二苯醚的替代品。本综述总结了近年来十溴二苯乙烷在环境中的含量水平及人体负荷情况。数据表明，十溴二苯乙烷在环境和人体组织中的浓度呈上升趋势。根据关于其毒性的有限实验，十溴二苯乙烷显示出与十溴二苯醚相似的毒性。十溴二苯乙烷会干扰甲状腺激素平衡，并对肝脏、生殖发育、肾脏等造成损害，这意味着十溴二苯乙烷可能是另一种新型持久性有机污染物。还需要进一步的研究。
