“…In the work of Lyche [13], DEHP intake with food, expressed in µg/(kg bw · day), was as follows: USA: breastfed infants up to the age of 6 months -7.3 µg, other groups -5 µg, children aged 5-11 years -18.9 µg, adolescents aged 12-19 years -10.0 µg, adults aged 20-70 years -8.2 µg; United Kingdom: infants up to the age of 3 months -13 µg, breastfed infants up to the age of 3 months -21 µg, children aged 3-12 months -8 µg; Germany: subjects aged 14-60 years -2.5-4.3 µg; Denmark: adults -2.7-4.3 µg. The blood concentrations of DEHP metabolites were determined at: USA: newborns -1.30-6.0 µg, pregnant women aged 20-40 years -1.32-9.32 µg, adults aged 20-60 years -0.7-3.6 µg; Germany: children aged 2-14 years -4.3-15.2 µg, students aged 20-29 years -2.7-6.4 µg, subjects aged 14-60 years -2.2-7.7 µg.…”
