Influence of ceria nanoparticles on chemical structure and properties of segmented polyesters.

Mater. Sci. Eng. C. Mater. Biol. Appl. 53 , 15-22, (2015)

In this work, we present new nanocomposite materials derived from segmented copolyesters, comprising ethylene terephthalate (PET) segments and dimerized linoleic acid (DLA), and nanometric cerium oxide particles (CeO2). Nanoparticles were incorporated in situ...

Lack of androgenicity and estrogenicity of the three monomers used in Eastman’s Tritan™ copolyesters

Food Chem. Toxicol. 50(6) , 2196-205, (2012)

Highlights ► Androgenicity and estrogenicity assessed with QSAR and in vitro, in vivo assays. ► Assessments for androgenicity and estrogenicity were universally negative. ► Data suggest no androgenic or estrogenic hazard or risk to humans.

Comparison of initial hydrolysis of the three dimethyl phthalate esters (DMPEs) by a basidiomycetous yeast, Trichosporon DMI-5-1, from coastal sediment.

Environ. Sci. Pollut. Res. Int. 18(9) , 1653-60, (2011)

Dimethyl phthalate esters (DMPEs) are a group of plasticizers commonly detected in the environment with potential adverse human health impact. The degradation of DMPEs by fungal systems has been studied to a limited extent, particularly by yeasts. In this stu...

The induction of bladder stones by terephthalic acid, dimethyl terephthalate, and melamine (2,4,6-triamino-s-triazine) and its relevance to risk assessment.

Regul Toxicol Pharmacol 5(3) , 294-313, (1985)

Terephthalic acid (TPA), dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), and melamine (MA) induced calculi and transitional cell hyperplasia in urinary bladders of rats. A high incidence of calculi was induced in weanling rats, but the incidence was much lower in adult rats in...

Metrological approaches to organic chemical purity: primary reference materials for vitamin D metabolites.

Anal. Bioanal. Chem 407 , 8557-69, (2015)

Given the critical role of pure, organic compound primary reference standards used to characterize and certify chemical Certified Reference Materials (CRMs), it is essential that associated mass purity assessments be fit-for-purpose, represented by an appropr...

Degradability of dimethyl terephthalate by Variovorax paradoxus T4 and Sphingomonas yanoikuyae DOS01 isolated from deep-ocean sediments.

Ecotoxicology 15(6) , 549-57, (2006)

Two strains of bacteria were isolated from deep-ocean sediments of the South China Sea using enrichment culturing technique and they were identified as Sphingomonas yanoikuyae DOS01 (AY878409) and Variovorax paradoxus T4 (AY878410) based on 16S rRNA gene sequ...

Biodegradation of dimethyl terephthalate by Pasteurella multocida Sa follows an alternative biochemical pathway.

Ecotoxicology 15(4) , 391-7, (2006)

Pasteurella multocida Sa, a bacterial strain isolated from mangrove sediment by enrichment technique, was capable of transforming dimethyl terephthalate (DMT). Biodegradation of DMT was shown to take place as a series of sequential steps involving the hydroly...

[Mutagenic action of the dimethyl ester of terephthalic acid on murine somatic cells in vivo].

Genetika 24(7) , 1226-33, (1988)

Mutagenic activity of dimethyl terephthalate (DMtP) was evaluated using the bone marrow micronucleus test in mice. Clear clastogenic effect with the highest response in 24 h after a single i.p. injection was obtained at all concentrations used (0.2-1.0 mM/kg)...

Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra. Semi empirical AM1 and PM3; MP2/DZV and DFT/B3LYP-6-31G(d) ab initio calculations for dimethylterephthalate (DMT).

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 60(8-9) , 2171-80, (2004)

Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra of dimethylterephthalate (DMT), as microcrystalline powder, have been investigated. The vibrational spectra were calculated using the AM1 and PM3 semi empirical procedures, and the Møller-Plesset (MP2/DZV), and the...
