Bacterial proliferation is comparable in red blood cell concentrates stored in DEHT/PAGGSM and DEHP/SAGM containers

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives The European Union's ban on the use of di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in medical devices will take effect in 2030. DEHP is a plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride blood bags that helps stabilize the red blood cell membrane during hypothermic red blood cell concentrate (RBCC) storage.

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) and Uterine Histological Characteristics

open access: yesDevelopment & Reproduction, 2020
Phthalates have a long industrial history. It is suspected that phthalates and their metabolites have detrimental effects on reproduction and development. They are well-known for their anti-androgenic effects. Several studies have indicated that phthalates and their metabolites are reprotoxic in males and endocrine disruptors.

Rapid Detection of Plasticizer Migration From UV‐Aged PVC Films by DART‐HRMS

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 10, 30 May 2026.
ABSTRACT 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 ...
