  • Do phthalates from recycled plastics affect human health?
  • We found no reviews of epidemiological human studies on the impact of phthalates from recycled plastics on human health. We recommend that future research should use urine samples as exposure measures, consider confounders in analyses and measure impacts on female reproductive systems.
  • Is diethyl phthalate a source of human exposure?
  • The use of diethyl phthalate in consumer products, however, is likely to be the primary source of human exposure. Diethyl phthalate has been detected in adipose tissue samples taken from people (including children) nationwide.
  • Are phthalate esters harmful to humans?
  • Several phthalate esters have been shown to cause negative health effects to animals (Foster et al., 2001, Higuchi et al., 2003, Li et al., 1998). Regarding humans, several studies have shown indications for effects.
  • Are phthalates a health hazard?
  • Phthalates have been identified by a number of studies and reviews as some of the most hazardous chemical additives in plastics for health, in terms of likelihood of impact by recycling processes (Geueke et al., 2018), frequency of use in primary plastic products (Groh et al., 2019), and human health hazard score (Hahladakis et al., 2018).
  • Are phthalate plasticizers toxic?
  • For DBA, COMGHA, DOS and DBS no hazard was identified due to the extremely low toxicities measured. Almost all alternative non-phthalate plasticizers have a lower toxic potential than DEHP. However, compared to other phthalate plasticizers like DINP, DIDP and DPHP, the results were not so clear.
  • Can phthalates mimic plastic chemical exposure during cardiac surgery?
  • To mimic plastic chemical exposure during cardiac surgery, Shang et al. exposed mice to a cocktail of BPA and phthalates as they recovered from myocardial infarction (Shang et al., 2019). Rodents exposed to plastic chemicals had increased cardiac dilation, increased immune cell infiltration, and impaired recovery.
