Di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), an excellent plasticizer for poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), is a known endocrine-disrupting chemical. This study was designed to investigate whether a new non-DEHP bilayer tube reduced the release of DEHP, suppressed inflammatory cytokines, and altered
The pollution of endocrine disruptors and its impact on human reproductive system have attracted much attention. Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), an environmental endocrine disruptor, is widely used in food packages, containers, medical supplies and children's toys. It can cause diseases such as
Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and other phthalates are ubiquitous environmental contaminants with endocrine disrupting properties. Two novel plasticizers, 1,4 butanediol dibenzoate (BDB) and dioctyl succinate (DOS), have been proposed as potential replacements. Both have desirable properties as
During the last decade, the trend toward intensifying chemotherapeutic regimens in patients with hematologic malignancies rapidly increased the demand for single-donor platelet concentrates (PCs). The logistics of such supply, however, necessitated the storage of these blood components prior to
The widely used plasticiser di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) has been reported to have some toxicological effects on pulmonary tissue. Inhalation of DEHP may cause pulmonary edema and bronchial asthma. Moreover intravenous injection of DEHP induces pulmonary inflammation and hemorrhage of the lungs.
BACKGROUND
Certain phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA) show reproductive effects in animal studies and potentially affect human ovulation, conception, and pregnancy loss.
OBJECTIVE
We investigated these chemicals in relation to follicular- and luteal-phase lengths, time to pregnancy, and early
