Characterization of Urinary Phthalate Metabolites Among Custodians.
Phthalates, a ubiquitous class of chemicals found in consumer, personal care, and cleaning products, have been linked to adverse health effects. Our goal was to characterize urinary phthalate metabolite concentrations and to identify work and nonwork sources among custodians using traditional cleaning chemicals and 'green' or environmentally preferable products (EPP). Sixty-eight custodians pro...
متن کاملComparisons of urinary phthalate metabolites and daily phthalate intakes among Japanese families.
We measured urinary phthalate metabolites, including di-n-butyl phthalate (DnBP), di-isobutyl phthalate, benzyl butyl phthalate (BBzP), and di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), from 178 school-aged children and their 284 family members using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and we calculated daily phthalate intakes. The highest median levels of phthalate metabolites were for mono-isobutyl ph...
متن کاملReproducibility of urinary phthalate metabolites in first morning urine samples.
Phthalates are ubiquitous in our modern environment because of their use in plastics and cosmetic products. Phthalate monoesters--primarily monoethylhexyl phthalate and monobutyl phthalate--are reproductive and developmental toxicants in animals. Accurate measures of phthalate exposure are needed to assess their human health effects. Phthalate monoesters have a biologic half-life of approximate...
متن کاملUrinary phthalate metabolites and ovarian reserve among women seeking infertility care.
STUDY QUESTION Are urinary phthalate metabolites associated with reduced antral follicle growth among women in an infertility setting? SUMMARY ANSWER Higher urinary concentrations of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) metabolites were associated with significant decreases in antral follicle count (AFC) among women seeking infertility care. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Experimental animal studies sh...
متن کاملVariability over 1 Week in the Urinary Concentrations of Metabolites of Diethyl Phthalate and Di(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate among Eight Adults: An Observational Study
BACKGROUND Phthalates are metabolized and eliminated in urine within hours after exposure. Several reports suggest that concentrations of phthalate metabolites in a spot urine sample can provide a reliable estimation of exposure to phthalates for up to several months. OBJECTIVES We examined inter- and intraperson and inter- and intraday variability in the concentrations of monoethyl phthalate...
