Results and discussion

Concentration
Substance or metabolite:
substance
Conc.:
< 0 µg/L

Any other information on results incl. tables

Indoor and outdoor triphenyl phosphate concentrations were below 
0.01 µg/m3. Even in the air of several buildings which were thought to 
contain  triphenyl phosphate containing materials, no triphenyl phosphate
was  found. In particulate matter from public buildings, a maximum of 
220 mg  triphenyl phosphate/kg was measured, but all other results 
<= 3 mg/kg

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
TPP concentrations in air were below the detection limit. TPP concentrations in particulate matter were generally <= 3 mg/kg, although one value of 220mg/kg was found
Executive summary:

Indoor and outdoor triphenyl phosphate concentrations were below 0.01 µg/m3. Even in the air of several buildings which were thought to contain triphenyl phosphate containing materials, no triphenyl phosphate was found. In particulate matter from public buildings, a maximum of 220 mg triphenyl phosphate/kg was measured, but all other results were <= 3 mg/kg.
