Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), a commonly used industrial plasticizer, causes liver tumorigenesis presumably via activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha). The mechanism of DEHP tumorigenesis has not been fully elucidated, and to clarify whether DEHP tumorigenesis is induced via PPARalpha, we

The secondary metabolite of dimethoxyethyl phthalate (DMEP), methoxyacetic acid (MAA), but neither the diester nor either of its primary metabolites, monomethoxyethyl phthalate (MMEP) and 2-methoxyethanol (ME), interferes with normal growth and development of organogenesis phase rat embryos in culture.

It is hypothesized that the known teratogen di(2-methoxyethyl) phthalate (DMEP) acts by in vivo hydrolysis to 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME), also a known teratogen, which in turn is metabolized to methoxyacetic acid (MAA), the proximate teratogen. Teratological studies were conducted with Wistar

SPME-GC-MS Determination of Phthalate Esters in Ramen Noodle Flavor Packets

A sensitive, quantitative, and reproducible SPME-GC/MS procedure was developed by Supelco for the extraction of phthalate esters from oily food matrices, such as the flavored oils included with ramen noodle kits.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
