In this exploratory study, we measured for the first-time human exposure to about 90 semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in France and Italy using silicone wristbands. Participants in France (n = 40) and in Italy (n = 31) wore a silicone wristband for five days during 2018 and 2019. Samples were analyzed for 39 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), 10 novel brominated flame retardants (nBFRs), 25 organophosphate esters (OPEs), and 18 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In both groups, the most commonly detected chemicals were BDE-209, BEHTBP, tris[(2R)-1-chloro-2-propyl] phosphate (TCIPP), and phenanthrene among PBDEs, nBFRs, OPEs, and PAHs, respectively. The concentrations of ∑₃₉ PBDEs, ∑₁₀ nBFRs, ∑₂₅ OPEs, ∑₁₈ PAHs, and of most individual chemicals were generally significantly higher in samples from France than in those from Italy, except for BDE-209 and TCIPP. On a broader scale, the chemical concentrations were generally significantly lower in this study than those measured in the United States in previous studies using the same type of wristbands. Efforts to standardize the protocols for the use of silicone wristbands are still needed but this study shows that wristbands are capable of capturing regional differences in human exposure to a large variety of SVOCs and, therefore, can be used as personal exposure monitor for studies with global coverage.

在这项探索性研究中，我们使用有机硅腕带对法国和意大利的人类首次接触约90种半挥发性有机化合物（SVOC）进行了测量。法国（n = 40）和意大利（n = 31）的参与者在2018年和2019年戴了5天硅胶腕带。样品分析了39种多溴联苯醚（PBDEs），10种新型溴化阻燃剂（nBFRs），25种有机磷酸酯（OPE）和18种多环芳烃（PAH）。在两组中，最常检测到的化学物质分别是PBDE，nBFR，OPE和PAH中的BDE-209，BEHTBP，三[（2R）-1-氯-2-丙基]磷酸（TCIPP）和菲。∑ ₃₉ PBDEs，∑ ₁₀ nBFR，∑ ₂₅ OPE，∑ ₁₈的浓度除了BDE-209和TCIPP以外，法国的样品中的PAHs和大多数单独的化学物质通常显着高于意大利的样品。在更广泛的规模上，本研究中的化学浓度通常明显低于美国在先前研究中使用相同类型腕带的化学浓度。仍然需要对使用硅胶腕带的协议进行标准化的努力，但这项研究表明，腕带能够捕获人类接触多种SVOC的区域差异，因此可以用作个人接触监测器，以进行全球性的SVOC研究。覆盖范围。
