Developing and evaluating “paraben-free & me”: an educational toolkit that targets parabens exposure reduction from personal care products
… exposing them to 114 harmful chemicals, such as parabens, every day. Found in cosmetics and hair products, parabens are linked to increased risks of breast cancer and endocrine disorders. Despite these risks, awareness and risk perceptions about parabens remain low among women. Educational …

Colloidal microgels as (trans)dermal drug delivery systems
… of and in the absence of ibuprofen (IBU), methyl paraben (MP), and propyl paraben (PP), by a surfactant-free emulsion polymerisation (SFEP) in water. Physico-chemical properties of the microgels were determined using different techniques including photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS), …

Membrane investigations using infra-red spectroscopy and multivariate target factor analysis
… studies using a solution of methyl paraben (MP) in ethanol (EtOH) and water through Carbosil and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) or silicone were conducted. Carbosil membrane is more complex membrane than PDMS as it has a heterophase domain structure composed of PDMS and polycarbonate …

The development of novel smart wound dressings based on colloidal microgels and cotton fabric
… microgels and novel wound dressings. Methyl paraben (MP) was used as a model drug compound. The results of MP release from free microgels show no significant influence of surface charge on MP release. However, BA-containing microgel particles release less MP than 100% poly(NIPAM) microgels …

An informatics approach to prioritizing risk assessment for chemicals and chemical combinations based on near-field exposure from consumer products
… chemical combination (2 phenoxyethanol, methyl paraben, and ethyl paraben) appears in 1,059 products. The second analysis demonstrates that the informatics approach can scale to several thousand target chemicals (11,964 environmental chemicals compiled from five authoritative lists). It repeats …

Developability assessments and analytical characterization of recombinant protein antigens formulated as low-cost, multi-dose, aluminum-adjuvanted vaccines
… most hydrophobic preservative examined, propyl paraben, resulted in the least destabilization of AH-adsorbed P[4] followed by methyl paraben and chlorobutanol. We then used HX-MS to better understand the destabilizing effects of storage temperature (4°C vs 25°C) and thimerosal (TH) on backbone …

Intergenerational and Transgenerational Effects of Endocrine Insults
… of EDCs (phthalate metabolites, phenols, and parabens) in early pregnancy and male infant genital development in a human cohort study. I found associations between bisphenol A (BPA) level and offspring cryptorchidism, and between detection of n-propyl paraben and shorter anogenital distance (a …
