Abstract
⺠O-PBDEs in the marine environment could have both natural and anthropogenic origin. ⺠Molecular-level 14C is measured by accelerated mass spectrometry. ⺠Industrial products, derived from fossil sources, are radiocarbon 14C-free. ⺠O-PBDEs compounds from marine sponges show modern levels of 14C. ⺠Some species could produce O-PBDEs rather than being biotransformation from industrial PBDEs.
