| Abstract | Indiscriminate application of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) in several products used by the people, associated to neglected factors such as toxicity, transportation and disposal of these flame retardants have been widely reported by literature once such compounds have been identified in environmental compartments. In this work chromatographic conditions were optimized in order to determine 14 PBDE congeners using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS), employing factorial design and taking into account a protocol recommended by the U.S. EPA. Method adaptations were proposed for the extraction and clean-up steps in order to spend smaller amounts of organic solvents. Thus, the aim of this work was to develop an analytical protocol aiming the determination of PBDE using environmentally friendly techniques, considering the precepts of Green Analytical Chemistry. |
