[Kinetic study of phthalate accumulation and elimination in a model of inhalational exposure in volunteers].

Studies were performed on volunteers exposed to 0.5 and 2 mg/m3 diethylhexyl phthalate for a period of 5 days. The accumulation of diethylhexyl phthalate in blood and its elimination with urine was traced. Accumulation of phthalates in the organism was established even in lower MAC concentration of 0.5 mg/m3, which puts the problem of reevaluation of this norm (1 mg/m3).
