Searching for Alternative Plasticizers for Red Blood Cell
Currently, DEHP (di- (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate) is the “softener” used in blood bag production to provide the necessary durability and flexibility, as an example for red blood cell (RBC) storage. However, DEHP is known to leach out of the plastic blood bag into the RBC suspension and exposures to high levels of DEHP have been shown to cause

The Long Goodbye to DEHP-plasticized PVC | mddionline.com
The idea of scrapping the use of polyvinylchloride (PVC) materials containing di (2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) plasticizers is not new. However, despite such endeavors, both PVC and DEHP plasticizer still abound in a variety of products, including garden hoses, building materials, toys, and such medical devices as, catheters, feeding tubes, and IV sets.
