BDE 153

Description:
BDE 153, or 2,2',4,4',5-pentabromodiphenyl ether, is a member of the polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) family, which are flame retardants commonly used in various consumer products. This compound is characterized by its brominated aromatic structure, which contributes to its effectiveness in reducing flammability. BDE 153 is known for its persistence in the environment and potential bioaccumulation in living organisms, raising concerns regarding its ecological and health impacts. It has been detected in various environmental matrices, including air, water, and sediments, as well as in human tissues. Toxicological studies suggest that BDE 153 may disrupt endocrine functions and exhibit neurotoxic effects, leading to regulatory scrutiny and restrictions in many regions. Its use has been phased out in several countries due to these concerns, and ongoing research continues to investigate its long-term effects on human health and the environment. As a result, BDE 153 is often monitored as part of broader efforts to assess and mitigate the risks associated with brominated flame retardants.
