                                    Preface
      This bibliography was created from a literature search performed under
the auspices of the Management Support Division, Information Support Services
Branch for the Assessment Division, Chemical Review and Evaluation Branch;
both of the Office of Toxic Substances.  The search was intended to provide
partial support for the preparation of a Preliminary Risk Assessment on
adipate esters:  di(2-Ethylhexyl) adipate, di-n-octyl adipate,
di(2-butoxyethyl)adipate, diisodecyl adipate, diisooctyl adipate, n-Hexyl
n-decyl adipate, di butoxyethyl adipate, dimethyl adipate, dinonyl adipate,
adipic acid dialkyl (C7-C9) ester, 2-methylheptyl adipate, diisopropyl
adipate, and ditridecyl adipate.  This assessment reviews and evaluates the
available significant economic and adverse effects data from both published
and unpublished sources on a substance selected as being potentially hazardous
to human health or the environment.

      The subject coverage of the assessment is broader than this bibliography
which includes only published environmental and biological information.  The
bibliography does not include all information available to the review branch.
Although it is not an authoritative source list for Preliminary Risk
Assessments, it does represent a comprehensive and systematic search of the
literature and subsequent selection of citations that pertain to health and
the environment.  The limits of the search are fully described in this
document and its appendices.

-------
                                 Introduction
1.    The Search

      This bibliography is a compilation of citations retrieved during a
thorough review of the national and international literature on selected
adipate esters cited between 1930 and April 1980.

      The supporting search was performed at the request of the Assessment
Division/Chemical Review and Evaluation Branch by the Management Support
Division/Information Support Services Branch, within the Office of Toxic
Substances.
      To insure that the search was comprehensive, a variety of sources were
examined, including the following:

      o  On-line databases from major vendors of bibliographic information.

      o  On-line databases from various agencies of the United States
         Government.

      o  Manually searched national and international indices and abstract
         collections of scientific literature.

      o  Reference sections of major review articles, criteria documents,
         monographs, and reports.

      o  Selected handbooks.

      (A complete listing of sources consulted can be found in Appendices I
and II).

      The emphasis of this bibliography is on the primary literature except
for the handbook information presented in Section II and a few secondary
sources selected because they contain unique or well-summarized information on
the chemical.

      Subsequent to the main search, which was completed in April 1980, and
using the same strategy, update searches were performed during the period from
April 1980 to May 1981 on all the on-line databases initially searched.  In
addition, the April 1981 and May 1981 issues of Current Contents  (Life
Sciences, Agriculture, Biology, and Environmental Sciences series) were
screened to retrieve citations which may not have been entered into the
on-line files at the time of the final update searches.

-------
      Because the overall requirement of the search request for this project
was broader than the health and environmental aspects of the chemical, a wider
range of databases was searched than might normally be expected for this
bibliography.  However, only health and environmental aspects were selected
regardless of the data source examined.  The total complement of databases
searched is listed in the appendices for the user's reference.

1.2.  Strategy

      The search requirement demanded high recall of information dealing with
adipate esters; precision was a secondary consideration.  EPA decided to
retrieve all citations that contained the term adipate ester or its synonyms
in any searchable fields and to select relevant citations by a manual screen.
The Chemical Abstract Service registry numbers (CAS RN) and systematic names
and synonyms that could be identified from CHEMLINE (National Library of
Medicine); CHEMDEX (System Development Corporation); CHEMNAME, CHEMSEARCH, and
CHEMSIS (Lockheed Information System); SANSS (NIH/EPA Chemical Information
System); and RTECS (NIOSH Registry of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances)
were used in the search on databases.  For on-line searching, the names were
divided into significant fragments and entered according to the conventions of
the individual databases.

      No additional modifiers or keywords were used to limit information
retrieved in any database for this chemical because comprehensive retrieval
was desired.  Complete search strategies are listed in Appendix II.

      Use/application categories were not used as search terms because EPA
decided to select only terms that specifically mentioned the chemical or its
synonyms.  Indexing policy, keyword entry, and abstracting techniques usually
assure retrieval of specific information on individual chemicals if they are
discussed significantly in general articles or reviews.  The user can be
assured; therefore, that each citation listed in this bibliography contains
substantive information on the subject chemical.

      Manual sources, indices, and abstract collections usually employ their
own unique indexing schemes for chemical information, so it is difficult to
describe a standard search strategy for these information tools.  However, in
all cases, the most specific indexing terms available in the source were used
to identify citations on the subject chemical.

      Chemical terms used in this search are found on Table I.

1.3.     Selection of Citations

    Citations were selected for inclusion in this bibliography based on
their relevance to the following topics:

    o    Toxicity — Adverse and toxic effects on any biological systems,
         structural and functional changes in organs and tissues of all
         vertebrate and invertebrate species, test methods used for
         determination of toxicity, and bioassay studies.

    o    Physiology — Absorption, distribution, transport, metabolism,
         and elimination in all species; techniques for measurement of
         tissue and organ residues; interactions with endogenous
         substances.

    o    Epidemiology — Exposure data, morbidity, and mortality rates for
         general and occupational populations.

    o    Environmental Significance — Environmental distribution in air,
         soil, and water; sources of pollution; ecological effects on
         microorganisms, insects, plants, and wildlife; biodegradation and
         bioconcentration; analytical techniques for sampling and
         measurement in the environment.

    o    Safety, Control, and Regulations — Disposal hazards; Federal,
         local, and international controls, recommendations, and
         regulations.

    These are the broad specifications for inclusion in this
bibliography.  Because any literature selection process involves
subjectivity and judgement, precise definitions are difficult.  The
general guiding requirement for inclusion is that citations must pertain
to the biological or environmental aspects of the chemical.

    The following information is not included in this bibliography:

         news items; brief announcements and Federal Register notices;
         reports of on-going research which have not yet been published or
         any other unpublished information; draft reports; and private
         communications.

2.    Organization of Bibliography

      This bibliography is organized into three major sections.

2.1.  Section Titles

         Section I   — Handbook information
         Section II  — Citations from the primary literature
         Section III — Appendices listing specific sources used and exact
         search strategies employed

2.2.  Citation Format

      In Section II citations from on-line and manually searched abstract
collections are arranged alphabetically by author.

      Personal names are entered with the last name first followed by  the
first two initials.  Second and third authors' names are separated from  the
first author and each other by a semicolon.  Up to three personal names  are
used; if there are more than three authors, the remaining are  listed as
"et al."

      If an author has written more than one article, citations are arranged
in ascending chronological order.  If authors and date are identical,
citations are arranged alphabetically by title of the article.  Single author
entries are listed first, followed by two, then three author entries.

      Patents are arranged alphabetically by assignee name.

      All government publications are listed by the sponsoring government
agency.  Government or corporate names are written in full form.  No acronyms
are used.  The country of origin is listed first, followed by  the
organizational hierarchy of the sponsoring group listed in descending
hierarchical order.  If the performing organization or individual author is
known, they are listed on separate lines below the government  sponsor.

         Example:  NIOSH publication:

         United States.  Department of Health, Education and Welfare.  Public
         Health Service.  Center for Disease Control.  National Institute  for
         Occupational Safety and Health
         Tracer Jitco, Inc.
         Brown, R.A.; Smith S.S.

      Corporate documents with no specific author are listed in alphabetical
order according to the first significant word of the organization name.

         e.g., DuPont de Nemours, E.I. and Company
                                      XI

2.3.  Literature Cited

      The following kinds of literature are cited in this bibliography:
journal articles, government reports, patents, organization and corporate
reports, books, manufacturer's literature, conference proceedings, and
dissertations.

      In each case an attempt has been made to supply the user with enough
information so that the hard copy of the document may be easily obtained.

      Journal titles are abbreviated according to the style in the Chemical
Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSl), The American Chemical Society,
Columbus, OH, 1980 and its corresponding guide, Bibliographic Guide for
Editors and Authors, The American Chemical Society, Washington, DC, 1974.

      All foreign titles have been translated into English.  Foreign language
articles are indicated by the appropriate three letter language abbreviation
in parentheses at the end of the source information.

2.4.  Categorization of Citations

      In order to make this bibliography a more useful tool for separate user
groups, most citations are marked with the category code E or H.

         E = Environmental Aspects, i.e., the major content of the document
         pertains to the chemical in the open environment:  its distribution,
         degradation, environmental chemistry and analysis; effect on
         ecosystems; effect on flora and fauna, including laboratory research,
         when emphasis is on environmental considerations rather than
         prediction of human effects, environmental chemistry, and analysis.

         H = Health Aspects, i.e., the major content of the document concerns
         known health effects, predictive laboratory research, and animal
         studies as relates to human health effects, human exposure, and
         epidemiological studies.

      A decision was made based on the abstract, and in some cases the entire
document, to categorize according to what appeared to be the major purpose of
the study.  In a few cases neither category applies.  Those citations were
left unclassified.
