Abstract
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) andhexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) were determined in fish(Salmo trutta forma lacustris) from Lake Geneva. Bromi-nated flame retardants were detected in all nine samples withan average concentration for the sum of BDE-28, BDE-47,BDE-49, BDE-66, BDE-99, BDE-100, BDE-119, BDE-153,BDE-154 and BDE-209 of 207 ng per g lipid weight(ng g lw-1). The congener patterns were dominated by BDE-47. The average concentration of HBCD was 168 ng g lw-1.
