Abstract:
Objective To explore the kinds and levels of phthalates leaching from disposable plastic products. Methods Samples of peritoneal dialysis solution, blood preservative solution, infusion instruments, preservative film, disposable plastic bags and water in plastic bottles were analyzed for phthalates by RP-HPLC after liquid-liquid extraction and/ or solid phase extraction. Results Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) was leached from all medical instruments, the maximum level of which reached 77.51?g/ L. Di-n-butyl phthalate was leached from disposable plastic bags, the level of which reached 91.45?g/ kg. Phthalates were not found in samples of preservative film and water in plastic bottles. Conclusion As DEHP leaching from the medical instruments might directly enter the human body, attention should be paid to its health hazards.
