Phthalate and Bisphenol Exposure During Minipuberty
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Phthalate Exposure, Bisphenol Exposure
In brief
Phthalates and bisphenols have been detected in a range of infant care products. This pilot study will test whether intervening on these sources of exposure during the critical period of minipuberty affects infants' body burden of phthalates and bisphenols. Investigators will recruit 10 participants from the ongoing NYU Children's Health and Development Study (CHES) cohort study who are \>=37 weeks gestation, carrying a male fetus, and intending to breastfeed. Investigators will randomly assign them to use either conventional baby products or phthalate- and bisphenol-free baby products for the first three months of their children's lives. Toward the end of the intervention, investigators will collect maternal breast milk and infant urine, and assay samples for phthalate metabolite and bisphenol concentrations.
