“…To our knowledge, with the exception of our previous work [2], there are no published studies concerning the release of these new plasticizers from the MD and into the patient. Four studies on the leaching of TOTM from tubings, dialysis or ECMO lines suggest that the release of this alternative plasticizer remains lower than DEHP [3][4][5][6]. The only available study on DINCH release, investigated leaching from PVC tubes into enteral feeding solutions, was funded by Nutricia (for review [7]).…”

“…Toxicity is one of the majors health concerns associated with plasticizers routinely used in common “plastics” [52]. Actually, in this context, legislators have banned DEHP from toys and childcare articles [7].…”

“…Obviously, infusion pumps require different set properties than those required for gravity therapy [15]. Since infusion pressure sets may be confused with gravity sets, the question is whether dosing accuracy is maintained in this case, or the gravity set is destroyed by a volumetric infusion pump [16,17].…”

“…In addition to this curve, the resulting test report includes accurate records of maximum force, stress, absolute elongation and tensile modulus. This quantity characterizes the strength of the material and its elastic deformation ability, as specified in Hook's law for elastic deformation [16,17]. For resilient polymeric materials, Hook's law is limited to a small portion of the recorded curve.…”
