Abstract: | Background, aim, and scope Experimental data on partition coefficients and environmental half-lives of sulfur analogs of polychlorinated organic compounds
are scarce. Consequently, little is known about their overall persistence and long-range transport potential, which are the
most vital measures in the environmental exposure assessment. We performed Multimedia Modeling of environmental fate and transport
to complement this paucity of scientific data. The main aim of our study was to investigate whether the sulfur analogs of
polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, -dibenzofurans, and -diphenylethers are as environmentally persistent and/or mobile as their oxygen counterparts
and to propose the environmental exposure-related classification of the examined sulfur compounds. |
