“…Phthalates have been frequently used as additives in polymer materials, which are widely used in plastics because they improve the plasticity, flow, and durability of plastic materials. − The added phthalates into plastics can dissolve, migrate, and volatilize, eventually entering the ecosystem, which can harm human health and the environment. − As a widely used phthalate plasticizer, the annual production of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) has exceeded 2 million tons . Recent surveys indicate that food and beverages are the primary sources of human exposure to DEHP, and elevated concentrations of DEHP are frequently detected in various types of waters, including surface water, stormwater, sediment, soil, treated and untreated wastewater, and sewage sludge from full-scale sewage treatment plants. , DEHP exposure raises concerns about endocrine, reproductive, and neurological dysfunction, as well as acquired diseases such as cancer, allergies, and gender-specific birth defects. , Therefore, the rapid and sensitive detection of DEHP is of great importance.…”

Organic electrochemical transistors with signal amplification and good stability are expected to play a more important role in the detection of environmental pollutants. However, the bias voltage at the gate may have an effect on the activity of vulnerable biomolecules. In this work, a novel organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) aptamer biosensor was developed for di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) detection by combining photoelectrochemical analysis with an organic electrochemical transistor, where MXene/Bi 2 S 3 /CdIn 2 S 4 was employed as a photoactive material, target-dependent DNA hybridization chain reaction was used as a signal amplification unit, and Ru(NH 3 ) 63+ was selected as a signal enhancement molecule. The poly(3,4ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate)-based OPECT biosensor modulated by the MXene/Bi 2 S 3 /CdIn 2 S 4 photosensitive material achieved a high current gain of nearly a thousand times at zero bias voltage. The developed signal-on OPECT sensing platform realized sensitive and specific detection of DEHP, with a detection range of 1−200 pM and a minimum detection limit of 0.24 pM under optimized experimental conditions, and its application to real water samples was also evaluated with satisfactory results. Hence, the construction of this OPECT biosensing platform not only provides a promising tool for the detection of DEHP but also reveals the great potential of the OPECT application for the detection of other environmental toxins.

“…The high hydrophobicity of phthalic acid esters (PAEs) leads to high persistence and bioaccumulation, with significant effects on organisms (Li et al, 2023a). Animal and cellular experimental studies have shown that dibutyl phthalate (DBP) can be ingested in the digestive tract, inhaled via the respiratory tract or may enter directly through the skin (Giuliani et al, 2020), and then transported to various tissues throughout the body, and finally be excreted through the kidneys.…”

Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are common environmental pollutants and may degrade differently with different resulting biotoxicity, when present together. This study investigated the toxicological effects of singular or combined exposure to dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in KM mice. Results indicated that combined exposure led to slower weight gain and an increased leukocyte count in the blood, as well as liver tissue lesions and downregulation of organ coefficients. Additionally, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were elevated in the liver, and glucose, pyruvate, triglyceride (TG), and total cholesterol (T-CHO) were significantly reduced, suggesting compromised liver function. Furthermore, mRNA levels of genes related to hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism were significantly altered. These findings suggest that combined exposure to DBP and MWCNTs can have severe impacts on liver function in mice, highlighting the importance of considering interactions between multiple contaminants in environmental risk assessments.

“…Thus, food products with high levels of plasticizers are hazardous to human health [2]. When added to food, plasticizers such as diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), di-butyl phthalate (DBP), and diisononyl phthalate (DINP) can damage human health [3]. Phthalates are added to food as they can increase flexibility, extensibility, and swelling.…”

In this study, a novel magnetic molecularly imprinted polymeric material (Fe3O4@MOF@MIP-160) with a metal-organic backbone (Fe3O4@MOF) carrier was prepared using dibutyl phthalate (DBP) as a template. The material can be used for the efficient, rapid, and selective extraction of trace amounts of phthalic acid esters (PAEs) in food and can detect them via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The synthesis conditions of the materials were optimized to prepare the Fe3O4@MOF@MIP160 with the highest adsorption performance. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra (FT-IR), Vibration Sample Magnetic (VSM), and the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method were used to characterize the materials. Compared with Fe3O4@MOF and the magnetic non-imprinted polymeric material (Fe3O4@MOF@NIP), Fe3O4@MOF@MIP-160 possesses the advantages of easy and rapid manipulation of magnetic materials, the advantages of high specific surface area and the stability of metal–organic frameworks, and the advantages of high selectivity of molecularly imprinted polymers. Fe3O4@MOF@MIP-160 has good recognition and adsorption capacity for di-butyl phthalate (DBP) and diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP): the adsorption capacity for DBP and DEHP is 260 mg·g−1 and 240.2 mg·g−1, and the adsorption rate is fast (reaching equilibrium in about 20 min). Additionally, Fe3O4@MOF@MIP160 could be recycled six times, making it cost-effective, easy to operate, and time-saving as compared to traditional solid-phase extraction materials. The phthalate ester content in drinking water, fruit juice, and white wine was analyzed, with recoveries ranging from 70.3% to 100.7%. This proved that Fe3O4@MOF@MIP160 was suitable for detecting and removing PAEs from food matrices.
