Abstract
The results of our studies on the extraction and disposition of three plasticizing substances which are extracted from polyvinyl chloride) medical devices will be reported. The plasticizers are di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), di-2-ethylhexyl adipate (DEHA), and butylglycolyl butyl phthalate (BGBP). DEHP extraction will be described in greater detail, and the two other plasticizers, DEHA and BGBP, will only be mentioned briefly. The compound DEHP is an aromatic diacid ester that meets the physical criteria needed to soften and plasticize the rigid polymer polyvinyl chloride) (PVC). As a
