Abstract
⺠Levels of PBDEs are higher in continental shelf rather than inshore dolphins. ⺠BDEs 47, 99, and 100 were the major congeners detected in the dolphins. ⺠Congeners found in Octa-BDE formulations were not detected in the dolphins. ⺠Contamination of animals in the South Atlantic is lower than in the North Atlantic. ⺠PBDEs comprise 0.2-1.5% of the total burden of POPs.
