Phthalate Standards

Stability Hygroscopic Applications 1,2,4-Benzenetricarboxylic Acid 4-(2-ethylhexyl) Ester is an analog of Trioctyl Trimellitate (T804400) which is a plasticizer that was evaluated for endocrine disrupting activities through estrogen receptor alpha binding assay.

Applications Labelled analogue of a phthalate ester metabolite used to study the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) in the mediating effects of phthalates and metabolites in the liver. Studies suggest that it may possess testicular toxicity. References Lapinskas, P.J. et al.: Toxicology, 207, 149 (2005); Watanabe, N. et al.: J. Health Sci., 48, 527 (2002);

Applications Labelled analogue of Benzo[ghi]perylene, one of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH’s), an environmental pollutant with potential carcinogenic activity. Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References Alves, C. et al.: Atmos. Environ., 35, 5485 (2001); Jaward, F. et al.: Environ. Sci. Technol., 38, 2523 (2004); Lee, R. et al.: Environ. Sci. Technol., 39, 1436 (2005); Augusto, S. et al.: Environ. Pollut., 158, 483 (2010);

Applications Labelled 6-OH-Monopropylheptylphthalate is a phthalate metabolite originating from a DPHP (B523500) used in plasticizers to improve chemical and physical properties.

Applications Labelled Mono(2-hydroxyisobutyl)phthalate (M547525). Mono(2-hydroxyisobutyl)phthalate is a metabolite of Di-isobutyl phthalate. References Engelhardt, G., et al.: Chemosphere, 6, 347 (1977),
