Zusammenfassung:	[Display omitted] •8 PBDEs, 5 AFRs, and 7 OPFRs were determined in 50 pairs of human fingernail and indoor dust samples.•The comparison between paired fingernail and dust samples can reflect the sources of exposure to FRs.•Significant correlations between fingernail and dust were observed for BDE 47, TBPH and TBOEP. In this study, the occurrence of 8 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), 5 alternative flame retardants (AFRs), and 7 organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) was determined in 50 pairs of human fingernail and indoor dust samples. The concentrations in fingernail were 9.79–242 ng/g, 17.7–926 ng/g, and 58.0–590 ng/g for PBDEs, AFRs, and OPFRs. Male fingernail showed significantly (p
