Note: Concentrations below the LOD were imputed with LOD divided by the square root of 2. DEHP, di-2-ethylhexylphthalate metabolite; DNOP, di-n-octylphthalate metabolite; HMWP, high-molecular weight phthalate metabolite; LMWP, low-molecular weight phthalate metabolite; LOD, limit of detection; max, maximum; min, minimum; P, percentile; PA, phthalic acid.
Phthalate metabolites are grouped into the following categories: LMWP metabolites (sum of mono-methyl phthalate, mono-ethyl phthalate, mono-isobutyl phthalate, and mono--butyl phthalate); HMWP metabolites [sum of mono-(2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl) phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate, mono-[(2-carboxymethyl)hexyl] phthalate, mono(3-carboxypropyl) phthalate, monobenzyl phthalate, mono-hexyl phthalate, and mono-2-heptyl phthalate; DEHP metabolites: [sum of mono (2-ethyl-5 carboxypentyl)phthalate, mono (2-ethyl-5 hydroxyhexyl)phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl)phthalate, and mono-[(2-carboxymethyl)hexyl]phthalate]; DNOP metabolites [mono(3-carboxypropyl) phthalate]; and PA (a proxy for total phthalate exposure).
With the exclusion of mono-hexyl phthalate, and mono-2-heptyl phthalate metabolite concentrations.
Total bisphenol: sum of bisphenol A, bisphenol F, and bisphenol S.
Total bisphenol: sum of bisphenol A and bisphenol S.
Total bisphenol: sum of bisphenol A and bisphenol F.
