Dépistage de la présence de polybromodiphényléthers (PBDE) dans les articles manufacturés

The objective of this study is to gather information on the concentration Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs) in manufactured items in the Canadian marketplace. The Government of Canada requires this information to understand potential consequences of proposed regulatory controls for PBDEs in manufactured items.
To meet the objective, the Contractor must measure levels of PBDEs in manufactured items available for purchase in Canada, other than automotive spare parts. The contractor will select manufactured items that may contain PBDEs and work with a laboratory to measure PBDE concentrations. The goal is to determine the concentrations of PBDEs in a variety of manufactured items, other than automotive spare parts.
