General description
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)), is an ester of adipic acid and 2-ethylhexanol. It is a plasticizer and finds application in plastic technology, in order to impart flexibility to rigid polymers. It is an indirect food additive formed due to contact of adhesives with polymers.

This study aimed to characterize the effects of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) on the fetal rat testes and relate them to the effects seen in adults. Histopathological effects in fetal testes were examined with immunohistochemistry for anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase

Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a well-known testicular toxicant inducing adverse effects in androgen responsive tissues. Therefore, di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (DEHA) is currently being evaluated as a potential substitute for DEHP. Similarities in structure and metabolism of DEHP and DEHA have led
