Abstract:
Humans always are surrounded by materials containing phthalates, such as insulation of wires, pipes, plastic housings, varnishes, paints and packaging materials. It is supposed that phthalates accumulate in the human body, which negatively affects its hormones, liver and kidneys may also become the causes of allergies diabetes, asthma and cancer, neurodevelopment disorders and abnormalities in the development of children. Molecules of phthalates are not structural elements of the polymer chains and therefore easily stand out in the environment, getting into the human body through food, skin or by inhalation. The aim of this work was the need to develop an effective, available and cost-effective procedure for phthalates decontamination of wines and alcoholic matrix. Sorption activity of seven natural and synthetic sorbents towards for six phthalates in the alcoholic matrix was investigated.
