Targeted Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Analysis of 31 Phthalates and Replacements: Method Optimization and Application to Edible Oils and Silicone Wristbands. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Interest in phthalate detection of foods and other environmental media has grown rapidly in the past decade. However, current analytical and separation techniques are often limited in the breadth of chemistry targeted, most often targeting less than 15 compounds. Challenges to successful methods with this compound group include chromatographic

AbstractBackground and ObjectivesDue to increasing concerns about possible endocrine‐disrupting properties, the use of the plasticizer di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) will be banned in future blood storage. Di(2‐ethylhexyl) terephthalate (DEHT) provides sufficient red blood cell (RBC) quality during conventional blood bank storage.

The thermal runaway model used is a semi-empirical model based on a kinetic equation, parametrised by three parameters (m,n,p). It is believed that this kinetic equation can describe any reaction.

Na<sub>2</sub>Fe<sub>3</sub>(SO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>4</sub>: A Zero-Strain Sustainable Positive Electrode Material for Na-Ion Batteries. [PDF]
A new sustainable zero‐strain Na2Fe3(SO4)4 (NFS) positive electrode material is obtained by only ball‐milling from cheap and available Na2SO4 and FeSO4. Iron coordination polyhedra include the Fe2O11 dimer of distorted octahedra (active during cycling) and FeO5 trigonal bipyramid, similar to that in the relative Pbca‐Na2Mn3(SO4)4 (NMS).

Non‐phthalate plasticizer DEHT preserves adequate blood component quality during storage in PVC blood bags [PDF]
Background and objectivesCommercial blood bags are predominantly made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plasticized with di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP). DEHP is favourable for storage of red blood cells (RBC). Historically, removal of DEHP from blood bags has been linked to unacceptable haemolysis levels.

Silicone Wristbands for Measuring Human Exposure to Organic Chemicals: Uses and Benefits for Human Biological Research. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Increasing human exposure to environmental contaminants is a growing concern and has become an important factor within human biological variation and health outcomes. Yet, traditional exposure assessment methods are often limited in their ability to capture the complexity and variation of chemical exposure, or are invasive, costly, and ...
