The toxicity and bioaccumulation potential of phthalate acid esters (PAEs) make their impact
on the environment a matter of considerable concern. Due to China's recent economic …

Indoor air quality (IAQ), as determined by the concentrations of indoor air pollutants, can be
predicted using either physically based mechanistic models or statistical models that are …

Plastic films have become an integral part of fruit and vegetable production systems, but
their release of phthalate acid esters (PAEs) is a threat to human health. The release kinetics …

The emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds
(SVOCs) from indoor building and vehicle cabin materials can adversely affect human …

This paper critically examines indoor exposure to semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs)
via dermal pathways. First, it demonstrates that–in central tendency–an SVOC's abundance …

There is an ongoing probing of the role of chemicals in the indoor environment. The majority
of potential target substances are so‐called very volatile, volatile, and semi‐volatile organic …

Despite the extensive production and use of phthalates in Asian countries, especially China,
limited information is available about the current situation of human exposure in this region …

Total daily intakes of diethyl phthalate (DEP), di (n-butyl) phthalate (DnBP), di (isobutyl)
phthalate (DiBP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBzP) and di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) were …

Objectives. The indoor environment has not been fully incorporated into the environmental
justice dialogue. To inform strategies to reduce disparities, we developed a framework to …

Background Phthalates and their potential replacements, including non-phthalate
plasticizers, are ubiquitous in home environments due to their presence in building …
