Abstract

This study investigates the bioaccumulation, biotransformation, and trophic transfer of normal tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) analogues along a simulated marine trophic chain. TBBPA analogues, commonly used flame retardants, pose environmental concerns due to their persistence and potential toxicity. Through laboratory experiments mimicking marine ecosystems, we examine the uptake, transformation, and transfer of TBBPA analogues across different trophic levels, from primary producers to top predators. Our findings shed light on the pathways and mechanisms of TBBPA analog bioaccumulation in marine organisms, highlighting potential risks to ecosystem health and human exposure. Understanding these processes is essential for effective management and mitigation of TBBPA analog contamination in marine environments.
