A Review of Biomonitoring of Phthalate Exposures

Toxics, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 7(2), P. 21 - 21

Published: April 5, 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 reproductive effects phthalates, human exposure to this class chemicals is a concern. Several phthalates been recognized substances high Human occurs mainly via dietary sources, dermal absorption, air inhalation. excreted conjugated monoesters urine, some such di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), undergo secondary metabolism, including oxidative transformation, prior urinary excretion. The occurrence their metabolites serum, breast milk, semen has reported. Urine preferred matrix biomonitoring studies, concentrations on order several tens hundreds nanograms per milliliter for metabolites. Metabolites diethyl (DEP), dibutyl- (DBP) diisobutyl- (DiBP) DEHP were most abundant compounds measured urine. Temporal trends exposures varied among countries. In United States (US), declined since 2005, whereas DiNP increased. China, increased 2000. For children higher than those adults. epidemiological shown significant association between adverse outcomes women men, type II diabetes insulin resistance, overweight/obesity, allergy, asthma. This review compiles doses assess health risks from populations across globe.

Phthalate Release from Plastic Fragments and Degradation in Seawater

Environmental Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2018, Volume and Issue: 53(1), P. 166 - 175

Published: Nov. 27, 2018

Plastic debris in the environment contains plasticizers, such as phthalates (PAEs), that can be released during plastic aging. Here, two common materials, an insulation layer of electric cables (polyvinyl chloride, PVC-cables) and garbage bag (polyethylene, PE-bags), were incubated natural seawater under laboratory conditions, PAE migration to phase was studied with varying light bacterial conditions over a 90-day time course. Free PAEs diluted also for degradation. Our results showed that, within first month incubation, both materials significantly leached out into surrounding water. We found di-isobutyl phthalate (DiBP) di-n-butyl (DnBP) main from PE-bags, highest values 83.4 ± 12.5 120.1 18.0 ng g–1 plastic, respectively. Furthermore, dimethyl (DMP) diethyl (DEP) PVC-cables, mass fractions high 9.5 1.4 68.9 10.3 g–1, Additionally, we exposure increased total amount PVC-cables by factor up 5, whereas they had no influence case PE-bags.

Microplastics in the soil environment: A critical review

Environmental Technology & Innovation, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 27, P. 102408 - 102408

Published: Feb. 12, 2022

Environmental pollution of microplastics (MPs) is known to be anthropogenically mediated menace biosphere and becoming a debatable concern globally. Large quantities plastic fragments are left behind after crop cultivation. The leftover debris, gradually degrade into minute with diameter less than 5 mm, as MPs. MPs responsible for many changes in the soil physicochemical characteristics, including porosity, enzymatic activities, microbial plant growth, yield. Because their ubiquitous nature, high specific surface area strong hydrophobicity, play an important role transportation toxic chemicals such plasticisers, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), antibiotics, potentially elements (PTEs). may transported deep can pollute underground water. This review paper investigates deleterious effects on environment, microbes, flora, fauna production, highlights general concept contamination well its possible environmental consequences. also converses some key areas future research stakeholders concerned policymaking

Critical Review on the Presence of Phthalates in Food and Evidence of Their Biological Impact

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, Journal Year: 2020, Volume and Issue: 17(16), P. 5655 - 5655

Published: Aug. 5, 2020

Phthalates are a huge class of chemicals with wide spectrum industrial uses, from the manufacture plastics to food contact applications, children’s toys, and medical devices. People animals can be exposed through different routes (i.e., ingestion, inhalation, dermal, or iatrogenic exposure), as these compounds easily released water, food, soil, air, making them ubiquitous environmental contaminants. In last decades, phthalates their metabolites have proven concern, particularly in products for pregnant women children. Moreover, many authors reported high concentrations soft drinks, mineral waters, wine, oil, ready-to-eat meals, other products, possible consequence accumulation along production chain accidental release packaging materials. However, due physical chemical properties, do not same human impacts association several diseases is still under debate. this review we provide an overview phthalate toxicity, pointing out health legal issues related occurrence types beverage.
