Term Information

Accession: GO:0018963
Name: phthalate metabolic process
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: phthalate metabolism, phthalic acid metabolic process, phthalic acid metabolism
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways involving phthalate, the anion of phthalic acid. Phthalic acid diesters are used industrially in the production of a variety of household and consumer goods including plastic polymers, lubricating oils, and carriers for perfumes in cosmetics, while phthalic acid itself is used industrially as a plasticizer. Terephthalate is used in the synthesis of polyethylene terephthalate (polyethene terephthlate, abbreviated PET or PETE), a plastic polymer with many commercial uses. Source: UM-BBD_pathwayID:pth
