A Review of Biomonitoring of Phthalate Exposures

Toxics, 2019
Phthalates (diesters of phthalic acid) are widely used as plasticizers and additives in many consumer products. Laboratory animal studies have reported the endocrine-disrupting and reproductive effects of phthalates, and human exposure to this class of ...

A global meta-analysis of phthalate esters in drinking water sources and associated health risks.

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
Phthalate esters (PAEs) are known as esters of phthalic acid, which are commonly used as plasticizers in the plastic industry. Due to the lack of chemical bonding with the polymer matrix, these compounds are easily separated from plastic products and ...

Phthalate and novel plasticizer concentrations in food items from U.S. fast food chains: a preliminary analysis

Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, 2021
Fast food consumption is associated with biomarkers of ortho-phthalates exposures. However, the chemical content of fast food is unknown; certain ortho-phthalates (i.e., di-n-butyl phthalate (DnBP) and di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)) have been phased ...

Developmental exposures to common environmental contaminants, DEHP and lead, alter adult brain and blood hydroxymethylation in mice

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: The developing epigenome changes rapidly, potentially making it more sensitive to toxicant exposures. DNA modifications, including methylation and hydroxymethylation, are important parts of the epigenome that may be affected by ...
