Description: We are exposed to a complex mixture of chemicals in our daily lives through the environment, consumer products, food and drinking water and at work. The 'Phthalates' video is part of a series of interviews with experts on different chemical substances that are studied under the HBM4EU project to help citizens to understand better how chemicals impact in our life. Which are the main routes of exposure and health impacts of phthalates? What do we know about the current human exposure? What new knowledge are we producing at HBM4U? Watch the video and find all the answers. Additionally, you can learn how to avoid exposure to phthalates and what are the main policy action done at the European level to prevent human exposure. Special acknowledgment should be given to Dr Marike Kolossa-Gehring, Head of section Toxicology, Health Related Environmental Monitoring at the German Environment Agency. The European Human Biomonitoring Initiative (HBM4EU) is a joint effort of 30 countries, the European Environment Agency and the European Commission, co-funded under Horizon 2020. The initiative is coordinating and advancing human biomonitoring in Europe. HBM4EU is generating evidence of the actual exposure of citizens to chemicals and the possible health effects in order to support policy making.
