AB  - While a large body of studies have examined polybrominated diphenyl ethers 
      (PBDEs) and alternative brominated flame retardants (ABFRs) in wildlife, 
      information on the bioaccumulation of these contaminants in reptiles in general, 
      and snakes in particular, are scarce. We investigated the bioaccumulation 
      characteristics of PBDEs and several ABFRs including decabromodiphenyl ethane 
      (DBDPE), 1,2-bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxy) ethane (BTBPE), hexabromobenzene (HBB) 
      and pentabromotoluene (PBT) in a frog-eating snake, the striped keelback snake 
      (Amphiesma stolata), from an e-waste recycling site in South China. The 
      concentrations of  summation operatorPBDEs and  summation operatorABFRs in the snakes ranged 53-5200 and 3.1-87 ng/g 
      lipid weight, respectively; with higher levels in males than females. 
      Additionally, the concentrations of BDE-28, -47, and -66 were positively 
      correlated with snake size (snout-vent length and body mass), while negative 
      correlations were found for most of the higher brominated PBDE congeners and HBB, 
      PBT and BTBPE. The biomagnification factors (BMFs) estimated in the snake/frog 
      relationship indicated a mild to moderate biomagnification of BDE-28, 
      -47, -66, -100, -153 and -154 (with mean BMFs of 1.1-5.3), while a lack of 
      magnification for the other PBDE congeners and all the ABFRs. This is the first 
      report on the sex- and size-related accumulation and biomagnification potentials 
      of PBDEs and ABFRs in snakes.
