Problems of using phenol (hydroxybenzene) and parabens as pharmaceutical stabilizers: analysis using machine learning methods by I. Yu. Torshin, O. A. Gromova

“…Secondly, the available data from fundamental research indicate that phenol/parabens obviously stimulate the the molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis pathophysiology (systematic disturbances in gene expression and corresponding changes in the structure of organ tissues). Thirdly, teratogenic and other toxic effects on the embryo and pregnancy were demonstrated not only in experimental studies (neurotoxicity and teratogenesis in animal models), but also in clinical observations (metabolic disorders in a pregnant woman, including the metabolism of purines and fatty acids beta-oxidation, hyperactivity and/or excess body weight in children, asthma, thyroid dysfunction, etc.).Conclusion. …”

Physicochemical properties and IgE binding ability changes of turbot allergen during oxidation by LU Zongchao, LI Zhenxing, ZHANG Limin, LIN Hong

“…Furthermore, indirect ELISA indicated that the immunogenicity of parvalbumin in both supernatant and precipitate decreased by 16.7% and 31.5% after 5 h oxidation, respectively.It is concluded that the oxidation alters the physicochemical properties of turbot proteins (allergens) and this may lead to the modifications of chemical structure and functionalities of the proteins. The chemical changes occur concomitantly with protein functionalities. …”
