Abstract Organotin compounds are widely employed as pesticides and fungicides in agriculture stabilizers for the industrial manufacture of polyvinyl chloride other polymers. Accordingly, these endocrine disruptors can be found a variety foods beverages. In present study, we describe optimization hollow-fiber liquid-phase micro-extraction approach simultaneous derivatization, extraction, pre-con...

Prohibition of Ot (organotin) compounds was introduced in Japan in 1997 and worldwide from September 2008. This meant that the production of paints containing TBT compounds was stopped and alternatives to the available Ot antifoulants had to be developed. It has been claimed that the degradation by-products of these alternative antifoulants were less toxic than those of Ot compounds. Since the ...

Organotin(IV) compounds show great potential as antitumor metallodrugs with lower toxicity and higher antiproliferative activity. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) inhibitors are characterized by high bioavailability low toxicity. In this contribution, the two novel octahedral organotin(IV) complexes of physiologically active hydroxamate-based ligands, N-hydroxy-4- phenylbutanamide (HL1) N-hydroxy-2-...

Organotin compounds in polyvinyl chloride toys were determined by GC/MS after ethyl derivatization with sodium tetraethylborate. The samples were 12 balls, 12 soft toys, 10 food toys and 13 face masks for children. Monooctyltin, dioctyltin and trioctyltin compounds were found in all face masks at the levels of 74.8-917 micrograms/g. 474-3,960 micrograms/g and 1.0-213 micrograms/g, respectively....

The toxicity of selected tin compounds is reviewed. Over the years, a variety of uses has been found for organic and inorganic tin compounds, as fungicides, as stablizers in plastics, moluscicides, and miticides; they have also been suggested as insect chemosterilants and for other industrial uses. Many of these products are unpalatable when mixed into diets and have been suggested as rodent re...
