This systematic review aims to assess the relationship between prenatal and childhood exposure to phthalates and neurodevelopmental outcomes, identifying periods of heightened susceptibility. Data sources considered studies examining repeated phthalate exposure during pregnancy and childhood on neurodevelopment. Evaluation included bias risk and study quality criteria. Evidence...
ABSTRACT Plasticizers are frequently used in building materials and consumer products and many are semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs). Understanding the emission rate of plasticizers in indoor environments is critical for subsequent exposure and health risk assessments. While concerns have been increasing regarding the use of phthalate...
ABSTRACT Assessing exposure to semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) that are emitted from consumer products and building materials in indoor environments is critical for reducing the associated health risks. Many modeling approaches have been developed for SVOC exposure assessment indoors, including the DustEx webtool. However, the applicability...
