AB  - While terrestrial organisms such as livestock are consumed regularly, studies of 
      internal distribution and bioaccumulation of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) 
      have been focused more on aquatic organisms. In this study, we have assessed the 
      internal distribution and fate of legacy (PCDD/Fs and PCBs) and emerging POPs 
      (HBCDs and PFASs), and TBBPA in 42 tissues of a Bos Taurus. PCDD/Fs, DL-PCBs, and 
      HBCDs were found 3, 4, and 4-fold higher in the lipid-rich organs (subcutaneous 
      fat, visceral fat, large intestine) compared to the remaining organs and muscles, 
      owing to their hydrophobic properties. The TBBPA concentration in the excrement 
      was 36-fold higher compared to the average tissues, suggesting a short internal 
      half-life of TBBPA. Among PFASs, PFUnDA displayed 98% contribution from all ionic 
      PFASs in the tissues due to its strong binding affinity, high exposure via feed 
      and water, and increasing emergence of PFUnDA and its precursors in the Southeast 
      Asian countries. While our study suggests that, at the moment, there is no 
      significant health risks to the general Korean population, the future changes in 
      environmental exposure as well as the internal dynamics and fate of various POPs 
      species should be kept in mind when consuming various parts of livestock.
