Detection of phthalate compounds in wet wipes using LC-MS/MS: risk assessment and LC-QTOF/MS findings.

Journal of environmental science and health. Part A, Toxic/hazardous substances & environmental engineering · 2026

Phthalates, widely used as plasticizers, pose significant health risks due to their endocrine-disrupting properties. This study aimed to determine the concentrations of 11 phthalate derivatives, including diethyl phthalate (DEP), bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), di-n-octyl phthalate, and dimethyl phthalate, in wet wipe samples using LC-MS/MS. A total of 15 wet wipe samples were randomly… Read on PubMed →
