Article /est Temporal Trends of Polychlorinated Biphenyls, Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers, and Perfluorinated Compounds in Chinese Sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) Eggs (1984−2008) Sun Jianxian, Peng Hui, and Hu Jianying* Laboratory for Earth Surface Processes, College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China S *Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Because investigation on the temporal trends of persistent halogenated compounds (PHCs) is necessary to predict their future impacts on the environment and human health and evaluate the effectiveness of regulations on their production and usage, it is of concern to investigate annual temporal trends of PHCs in biota samples. This study examined the temporal trends of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), and perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) in Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis ) eggs over a period of 25 years (1984−2008), and 62 PCBs (19.2−1030 ng/g dw for total PCBs), 16 PBDEs (4.7−572 ng/g dw for total PBDEs), and 14 PFCs (26−46 ng/g dw for total PFCs) were detected. Although a decreasing temporal trend was observed for total PCBs with annual reduction rate of 3.4% (ρ = 0.005), a clear break point was observed around 1991, indicating their continuing emission in the 1980s in China. All major PBDEs showed increasing temporal trends, with annual change rates at 3.5−10.2% over the 25 years, but a sharp decreasing trend was observed after 2006, indicating a rapid response to the banning of PBDE usage in China in 2004. The greatest annual rate of increase was observed for BDE-28 (10.2%) f
