Semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), such as phthalates, organophosphates and siloxanes, are contaminants of emerging concern. Such chemicals are widely used as plasticizers, insecticides and flame retardants in building materials and consumer products used in households, such as antiperspirants, skin- and hair-care products, cosmetics and detergents. SVOCs are becoming more of a concern due to their widespread usage and potential health effects, such as endocrine disruption and cancer. The health effects of a specific SVOC depend on its chemical nature and the degree of exposure, which can occur through a combination of ingestion, respiration and skin absorption.
