Journal ArticleDOI
Phthalate exposure and human semen parameters.
Susan M. Duty,Manori J. Silva,Dana B. Barr,John W. Brock,Louise Ryan,Zuying Chen,Robert F. Herrick,David C. Christiani,Russ Hauser +8 more
TL;DR: There were dose-response relations for mono-butylphthalate and monobenzyl phthalate with one or more semen parameters, and suggestive evidence for monomethyl phhalate with sperm morphology, and the lack of a relation for other phthalates may indicate a difference in spermatotoxicity amongphthalates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Phthalate Exposure among Pregnant Women Assessed by Repeat Air and Urine Samples
Jennifer J. Adibi,Robin M. Whyatt,Paige L. Williams,Antonia M. Calafat,David Camann,Robert F. Herrick,Heather H. Nelson,Hari K. Bhat,Frederica P. Perera,Manori J. Silva,Russ Hauser +10 more
TL;DR: Urinary concentrations of DEP and DEHP metabolites in pregnant women showed lower reproducibility than metabolites for di-n-butyl phthalate and BBzP, whereas urinary phthalates should be sampled longitudinally during pregnancy to minimize exposure misclassification.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between environmental exposures to phthalates and DNA damage in human sperm using the neutral comet assay.
Susan M. Duty,Narendra P. Singh,Manori J. Silva,Dana B. Barr,John W. Brock,Louise Ryan,Robert F. Herrick,David C. Christiani,Russ Hauser +8 more
TL;DR: This study represents the first human data to demonstrate that urinary MEP, at environmental levels, is associated with increased DNA damage in sperm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mortality From Lymphohematopoietic Malignancies and Brain Cancer Among Embalmers Exposed to Formaldehyde
Michael Hauptmann,Patricia A. Stewart,Jay H. Lubin,Laura E. Beane Freeman,Richard W. Hornung,Robert F. Herrick,Robert N. Hoover,Joseph F. Fraumeni,Aaron Blair,Richard B. Hayes +9 more
TL;DR: Duration of embalming practice and related formaldehyde exposures in the funeral industry were associated with statistically significantly increased risk for mortality from myeloid leukemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Unrecognized Source of PCB Contamination in Schools and Other Buildings
TL;DR: An investigation of 24 buildings in the Greater Boston Area revealed that one-third (8 of 24) contained caulking materials with polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) content exceeding 50 ppm by weight, which is the U.S. EPA specified limit above which this material is considered to be PCB bulk product waste.
