Phthalic acid esters--an overview.
In recent years those in the scientific community concerned with environmental and public health have been called upon to consider two categories of previously unsuspected materials characterized by wide distribution and long persistence in the environment: mercury, especially organic mercury, and the chlorinated diphenyls (PCBs). To a significant extent this conference presents again the same ...
متن کاملGas-chromatographic detection of phthalic acid esters.
Each second, the rivers of the world add 109 kg of fresh water to the oceans, and with this water comes tremendous quantities of salts, clay minerals, and other suspended solids. Although the Amazon River makes the largest contribution of fresh water to the sea, its waters are relatively uncontaminated. On the other hand, the Mississippi River, the third largest river, which delivers only about...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Phthalic Acid Esters by Immobilized Microbial Cells
Microorganisms capable of degrading di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) were immobilized by polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and used for DBP degradation. The characteristics of DBP degradation by immobilized and free cells were investigated. The experimental results showed that the degradation rate o f immobilized cells was higher than that of free cells. The optimal pH and temperature for DBP degradation were ...
متن کاملEffects of phthalic acid esters on fetal health.
INTRODUCTION Phthalates are synthetic industrial compounds capable of disrupting endocrine system. Effects of phthalates depend on dosage, duration of action and stage of development of the individual, thus making the fetus, newborn, and children at puberty the most vulnerable groups. METABOLISM OF PHTHALATES: Metabolism of these compounds consists of at least two steps: hydrolysis and conjugat...
متن کاملToxicology of phthalic acid esters used in food-packaging material.
Phthalic acid esters may be used as plasticizers in food-packaging materials that have direct contact with food. Under normal conditions of use small amounts of the plasticizers would be expected to migrate into the food. The safe use of the phthalic acid esters under these conditions is based on available toxicity data, as well as regulations which, in general, specify the maximum extractable ...
