Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC? Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were widely used in many industrial and commercial materials as flame retardants, and its related exposure threatens human health. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? The Sixth Total Diet Study (TDS) indicated that the dietary intake of PBDEs was unlikely to pose significant health risks for the general Chinese people using the margin of exposure (MOE) approach recommended by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? This study highlights the necessity of continuous national monitoring of the dietary intake and strict legislation of PBDEs in China.
