Overview

Quantification of plasticizers reveals diet influences exposure levels in adults, highlighting food delivery's role.

Key Points

  • Assess dietary exposure to phthalates and alternative plasticizers in Korean adults.
  • Quantified exposure using GC-MS/MS
  • Analyzed 370 duplicate-diet composites from 124 adults
  • Assessed food-intake diaries for eating habits
  • Total plasticizer concentrations ranged from 103 to 240,000 ng/g dry weight
  • 17.5% of samples exceeded the cumulative antiandrogenic reference dose
  • APs shifted from accounting for 20% in the lowest quartile to 57% in the highest quartile
