Many commercial plasticizers are toxic endocrine-disrupting chemicals that are added to plastics during manufacturing and may leach out once they reach the environment. Traditional phthalic acid ester plasticizers (PAEs), such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and bis(2-ethyl hexyl) phthalate (DEHP), are

The leachability of both Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and Tri(2-ethylhexyl) trimellitate (TEHTM) or Trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM) from haemodialysis tubing was investigated in 20 patients with chronic renal failure undergoing maintenance haemodialysis. The blood tubing made of common polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plasticized
