International archives of occupational and environmental health, 84(5), 523-531 (2010-08-31)
The aim of this study was to assess, by biological monitoring, workers' exposure to di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in the flexible-PVC industry in France to provide additional occupational exposure data, which are particularly scarce. Over 5 days of pre-and post-shift sampling
Chemical Society reviews, 36(11), 1770-1787 (2008-01-25)
This critical review deals with the chemistry and applications of metal alkanoates with medium size (C5 to C12) carbon chain length. A particular emphasis is given to metal 2-ethylhexanoates, which find wide applications as metal-organic precursors in materials science, as
Archives of toxicology, 80(5), 293-298 (2005-12-06)
The highly directional maternal-to-fetal transfer of essential fatty acids (EFAs) across the placenta plays a critical role in guiding proper fetal development. Exposure to xenobiotics that may alter the fetal supply of EFAs/lipids could lead to fetal toxicity. Since the
Porous scaffolds of 1,5-dioxepan-2-one (DXO), L-lactide (LLA), and epsilon-caprolactone (CL) were prepared by a solvent casting, salt particulate leaching technique in which the composites were detached from their mold using a novel methanol swelling procedure. By incorporating DXO segments into
Food additives and contaminants, 21(8), 811-814 (2004-09-17)
After simultaneous distillation-extraction (SDE) of commercial baby foods (n = 20) and fruit juices (n = 15) (among them 15 and eight products labelled 'organic', respectively) from 11 different suppliers, analyses performed by coupled capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) revealed
