  • Which products have the highest and lowest plasticizer concentrations?
  • In this study, the products with the overall highest plasticizer concentrations (14,900 ng/g in a refined avocado oil with 12,000 ng/g from DEHT) and lowest plasticizer concentrations (a refined canola oil, 9 ng/g plasticizer entirely from DEHP) were both oils.
  • Which plasticizers are not used in food-processing materials?
  • Eight of 12 ortho-phthalates and three out of nine alternative plasticizers were measured in at least one product (Table 2). The plasticizers that were not detected (DPP, DnHP, DnOP, DIDP, DEA, TBP, DBA, DBS, ATBC, and DEHA) are likely not currently used in food-processing materials, at least within the tested food categories.
  • Which plasticizer has the highest concentration of phthalate?
  • We detected eight ortho-phthalates and three alternatives ( (1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester (DINCH), diethylhexyl terephthalate (DEHT), and diisobutyl adipate (DIBA). Diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) was measured in all 71 products. DEHT had the highest concentration of any plasticizer (>10,000 ng/g in three oils).
  • Are plasticizers a public health concern?
  • Plasticizers were not detected in packaging except epoxidized soybean oil in liquid formula lids. Human exposure to plasticizers is a significant public health concern. Nevertheless, sources of such exposures are poorly characterized. This study adds valuable information for estimating legacy and alternative plasticizer exposures from foods.
  • What is a safe alternative to ortho-phthalate plasticizers for PVC?
  • DEHT, DINCH, and DIBA are marketed as safer alternatives to ortho-phthalate plasticizers for PVC and other polymers.
  • Which oil has the highest plasticizer?
  • Oils had the highest total plasticizer (median = 770 ng/g, max = 14,900 ng/g) and milk the lowest (median = 88 ng/g, max = 120 ng/g). Organic milk and refined oils had higher median plasticizer levels than conventional. Refined oils had significantly lower concentrations than unrefined oils.
