Racial/ethnic and geographic differences in polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) levels across maternal, placental, and fetal tissues during mid-gestation.

Although the geographical variation in PBDE levels in this study were only marginally significant, women living in Fresno/South Central Valley had substantially higher levels of certain PBDEs than women residing in the San Francisco Bay Area (e.g., ~ 30% higher wet-weight BDE-47 levels; p = 0.07).
