AB  - In Southern Germany, peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus), which almost 
      exclusively prey on other birds, are top predators of the terrestrial food chain. 
      These animals accumulate persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and halogenated 
      flame retardants (HFRs) with mothers transferring these lipophilic contaminants 
      to their eggs. Here we analyzed unhatched eggs of eleven peregrine falcons and 
      six of other species, and report concentrations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers 
      (PBDEs), hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), hexabromobenzene (HBB), 
      2,3-dibromopropyl-2,4,6-tribromophenyl ether (DPTE) and its metabolites, 
      pentabromoethylbenzene (PBEB), pentabromotoluene (PBT), and tribromophenol (TBP). 
      The extract of one purified peregrine falcon egg sample was comprehensively 
      analyzed in a non-target (NT) approach by gas chromatography with mass 
      spectrometry in the electron capture negative ion mode. A total of  approximately 400 
      polyhalogenated compounds were detected, among them dechloranes and possibly 
      transformation products, two tetrabrominated metabolites of PBT and several 
      compounds unknown to us which could not be identified.
