Estimated daily phthalate exposures in a population of mothers of male infants exhibiting reduced anogenital distance. [PDF]
Phthalate diesters have been shown to be developmental and reproductive toxicants in animal studies. A recent epidemiologic study showed certain phthalates to be significantly associated with reduced anogenital distance in human male infants, the first ...

Teratogenicity/Fetotoxicity of DEHP in Mice [PDF]
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 ...

Exposure to Endocrine Disruptors and Nuclear Receptors Gene Expression in Infertile and Fertile Men from Italian Areas with Different Environmental Features [PDF]
Internal levels of selected endocrine disruptors (EDs) (i.e., perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), di-2-ethylhexyl-phthalate (DEHP), mono-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (MEHP), and bisphenol A (BPA)) were analyzed in blood/serum of ...

Dose-Dependent Effects of Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) in Mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis
Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are environmental organic pollutants that are ubiquitous in the ocean, and di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is the most widely used PAE. The environmental concentration of DEHP was reported to be up to 42.52 μg/L in seawater
