The environmental costs of clean cycles: Quantitative analysis for the case of PVC window profile recycling in Germany

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1755-1770, December 2024.
Abstract Recycling schemes for long‐lived products are challenged by the presence of “legacy substances,” which have been used in production in the past, but are nowadays classified as substances of concern. This study quantitatively evaluates the trade‐offs between phasing out legacy substances, increasing circularity levels, and reducing life cycle ...

Endocrine disruption of adipose physiology: Screening in SGBS cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 1784-1792, November 2024.
Abstract The increasing use of industrial chemicals has raised concerns regarding exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which interfere with developmental, reproductive and metabolic processes. Of particular concern is their interaction with adipose tissue, a vital component of the endocrine system regulating metabolic and hormonal ...

SUBCHRONIC TOXIC EFFECTS OF DI-ETHYLHEXYL PHTHALATE ON OVARY AND TESTIS OF ADULT ALBINO RATS [PDF]

The Egyptian Journal of Forensic Sciences and Applied Toxicology, 2018
Di-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) –a common type of phthalate plasticizers- has become a major environmental toxic hazard to human health especially the reproductive system. This work aimed to assess the subchronic toxic effects of DEHP on adult albino rats'

Metabolic disrupting chemicals in the intestine: the need for biologically relevant models

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 14, Issue 9, Page 1397-1419, September 2024.
In this review, we aimed to study how the intestine may be disrupted by metabolic endocrine disruptors (MDCs) both in its own metabolism and in its relationships with other organs. Zebrafish shares numerous similarities with human gastrointestinal tract, representing an opportunity to study the complex interactions of MDCs at the intestinal level and ...

Influence of Programming and Recovery Parameters on Compressive Behaviors of 4D‐Printed Biocompatible Polyvinyl Chloride or Vinyl–Poly(ε‐Caprolactone) Blends

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 26, Issue 12, June 2024.
This work introduces a new class of biocompatible shape‐memory polymers by blending polyvinyl chloride or vinyl and PCL. Thermomechanical and morphological analyses reveal their excellent 4D printability and performance in terms of programmability, compressive shape recovery, shape fixity, working temperature, and stress relaxation.

Independent and Combined Effects of Bisphenol A and Diethylhexyl Phthalate on Gestational Outcomes and Offspring Development in Sprague‐Dawley Rats

The FASEB Journal, 2020
Bisphenol A (BPA) and Diethylhexyl Phthalate (DEHP) are common plastic‐derived environmental contaminants that act as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and pose risks for expecting mothers and offspring. Research addressing the effect of a mixture of

Simulated digestion of polystyrene foam enhances desorption of diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) and In vitro estrogenic activity in a size-dependent manner.

Environmental Pollution, 2019
Marine polychaetes and fish are known to ingest polystyrene microparticles in the environment. Laboratory microplastic feeding experiments have demonstrated that plastic may release endocrine-disrupting compounds such as diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP ...
