Disposable Pipette Extraction (DPX) Coupled to HPLC-DAD as an Alternative for the Determination of Phthalic Monoesters in Urine Samples

Separations, 2022
Phthalates are widely used in industry, but adverse effects on human health have been reported due to exposure to these chemicals. In the human body, they are metabolized into phthalic monoesters, which are used to monitor human exposure and assess risk.
