Rapid Detection of Plasticizer Migration From UV-Aged PVC Films by DART-HRMS. [PDF]
Rapid Commun Mass SpectromABSTRACT Rationale The migration of phthalate plasticizers from high‐volume polymers, such as poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), raises significant toxicological concerns, particularly when materials are subjected to aging and environmental stress. As traditional monitoring techniques rely on time‐consuming solvent extraction and chromatographic methods that ...

Investigation of Diethyl Hexyl Phthalate Migration from Poly(Vinyl Chloride) Serum Bags
ENP Engineering Science Journal, 2021 Plasticizers are used to make Poly (Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) flexible so it can be used in different areas such as intravenous solution containers. Plasticizers can migrate from PVC over time because of contact with these solutions; this phenomenon creates ...

Biodegradation of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate by a new bacterial consortium
Water Science and Technology, 2023 Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) with continuous high concentration was used as the sole carbon and energy source to isolate a new bacterial consortium (K1) from agricultural soil covered with plastic film for a long time.

Emissions of DEHP‐free PVC flooring [PDF]
Indoor Air, 2019 Degrading 2-ethylhexyl-containing PVC floorings (eg DEHP-PVC floorings) and adhesives emit 2-ethylhexanol (2-EH) in the indoor air. The danger of flooring degradation comes from exposing occupants to harmful phthalates plasticisers (eg DEHP), but not from 2-EH as such.

Impact of mold growth on di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate emission from moist wallpaper
Heliyon, 2022 Flood damage can increase indoor concentrations of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and molds in households with wallpaper. Wallpaper water content can affect its DEHP emission into indoor environments; however, the influence of mold growth on this DEHP

Teratogenicity/Fetotoxicity of DEHP in Mice [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1982 The embryonic/fetotoxic effects of DEHP on pregnant mice (ddY-Slc female x CBA male) were studied. DEHP was administered orally in dosages of 0.05 ml/kg to 30.0 mg/kg on day 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 of gestation. A single administration of DEHP over 0.1 ml/kg (1/300 of LD50) on day 7 of gestation decreased the numbers and the body weight of living fetuses ...

DEHP Down-Regulates Tshr Gene Expression in Rat Thyroid Tissues and FRTL-5 Rat Thyrocytes: A Potential Mechanism of Thyroid Disruption [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021 Background Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) is known to disrupt thyroid hormonal status. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of this disruption is unclear. Therefore, we investigated the direct effects of DEHP on the thyroid gland.
