  abstract: Provides background on chemicals known as phthalates, which are used to make the plastics found in numerous consumer products. Addresses concerns over possible human health effects from phthalate exposure, including disruption of hormonal functions and malformations of reproductive organs of offspring. Reviews Federal evaluation and regulation; European Union and State regulation; and proposed amendment to H.R. 4040, the Consumer Product Safety Commission Reform Act, to restrict the use of six phthalates in certain toys and child-care products. Considers scientific basis for concerns, and likely impact of amendment.
