AB  - House dust is an important matrix to evaluate the human exposure to a large 
      number of contaminants including organochlorine compounds and flame retardants. 
      In this study, we measured the levels of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), 
      hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDDs), 1,2-bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxy) ethane (BTBPE), 
      decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and several 
      organophosphorus flames retardants (PFRs) in 28 house dust samples collected 
      between 2010 and 2011 in two Portuguese cities, Aveiro and Coimbra. Among the 
      measured compounds, PFRs, particularly tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (TEHP), 
      triphenyl phosphate (TPHP), 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate (EHDPP) and 
      tris(methylphenyl) phosphate (TMPP), were the dominant group (median: 
      3200ngg(-1)). PBDE levels were the second highest (median: 340ngg(-1)) with great 
      predominance of BDE 209 (median 270ngg(-1)), followed by HBCDDs (median: 
      150ngg(-1)), DBDPE (54ngg(-1)), PCBs (median: 6.3ngg(-1)) and BTBPE (median: 
      1.2ngg(-1)). Estimated daily intakes (EDIs) via dust ingestion showed a higher 
      intake of PFRs (median: 4.6ngkg-bw(-1)day); however for all contaminants the EDIs 
      were much lower than the established reference dose (RfD) values. Therefore, the 
      studied population is exposed to non-hazardous levels of the target compounds 
      when considering the exposure through house dust ingestion.
