- Urinary concentrations of bisphenol A, parabens and benzophenone-type ultra violet light filters in relation to sperm DNA fragmentation in young men: A chemical mixtures approach.: This study investigates the relationship between urinary concentrations of various chemicals, including benzophenone-type UV filters like 2,2′,4,4′-Tetrahydroxybenzophenone, and sperm DNA fragmentation. The findings highlight potential reproductive toxicity risks associated with exposure to these compounds (Kiwitt-Cárdenas et al., 2024).
- Salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction combined with LC-MS/MS for the simultaneous determination of seven organic UV filters in environmental water samples: method development and application.: This paper discusses the development of a method for detecting organic UV filters, including 2,2′,4,4′-Tetrahydroxybenzophenone, in environmental water samples. The method offers a reliable way to monitor the presence of these compounds in the environment (Carve et al., 2023).
- Novel visible-light-active P-g-CN-based α-Bi(2)O(3)/WO(3) ternary photocatalysts with a dual Z-scheme heterostructure for the efficient decomposition of refractory ultraviolet filters and environmental hormones: Benzophenones.: The study presents a new photocatalyst capable of degrading benzophenone-type UV filters, including 2,2′,4,4′-Tetrahydroxybenzophenone, under visible light. This development has significant implications for environmental cleanup technologies (Berekute et al., 2023).
- Boosting elimination of sunscreen, Tetrahydroxybenzophenone (BP-2), from water using monopersulfate activated by thorny NanoBox of Co@C prepared via the engineered etching strategy: A comparative and mechanistic investigation.: This research explores a novel method for removing 2,2′,4,4′-Tetrahydroxybenzophenone from water using advanced nanotechnology, highlighting its effectiveness and potential for environmental applications (Khiem et al., 2023).
- The binding mechanism of benzophenone-type UV filters and human serum albumin: The role of site, number, and type of functional group substitutions.: The study examines how benzophenone-type UV filters, including 2,2′,4,4′-Tetrahydroxybenzophenone, interact with human serum albumin, providing insights into their behavior in biological systems and potential health implications (Ma et al., 2023).
