[Levels of PCDD/Fs, PCBs and PBDEs compounds in human placenta tissue].

Objective: To establish the methods of Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-Dioxins and Dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) compounds determination by isotope dilution HRGC/HRMS simultaneously in human placenta tissue from mothers, and assess the human exposure risk to dioxins and PBDEs in study.

Methods: Concentrations of 17 PCDD/Fs and 12 dioxin-like PCBs as well as 7 PBDEs were measured in human placenta tissue samples by isotope dilution HRGC/HRMS. SigmaTEQ (PCDD + PCDFs + PCBs) concentration using WHO-TEF factor and PBDEs concentration was calculated respectively.
