      Tetradecabromo-1,4-diphenoxybenzene (TeDB-DiPhOBz) is a highly brominated additive flame retardant (FR). Debrominated photodegradates of TeDBDiPhOBz are hydroxylated <i>in vitro</i> in liver microsomal assays based on herring gulls (<i>Larus argentatus</i>), including one metabolite identified as 4<i>″</i>-OH-2,2<i>′</i>,2<i>″</i>,4-tetrabromo-DiPhOBz. Chemically related methoxylated tetra- ...
