150 Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers

AccuStandard has synthesized 150 PBDEs. The technical formulations of PBDEs are the most widely used flame retardants in the world. Recent publicity has focused on their properties as persistent endocrine disruptors and their bioavailability in mothers' milk. Reports in US and European scientific journals document disturbing facts regarding bioaccumulation in the environment and humans. California has already placed a ban on the usage of some of these compounds. Analytical procedure methods are being developed with new regulations pending which will place PBDE formulations on the US EPA's (and their European counterpart's) Hazardous Target Compound Lists. The company has synthesized 150 PBDE Standards for these new methods and regulations in addition to many PBDE Metabolites and has also the ability to provide your laboratory with your required custom formulations of these and other compounds.
