In Vitro Genotoxicity of Dibutyl Phthalate on A549 Lung Cells at Air-Liquid Interface in Exposure Concentrations Relevant at Workplaces

While in vitro studies were often based on submerged exposures, this study aimed to expose A549 alveolar epithelial cells at the air-liquid interface (ALI) to unravel the genotoxic and oxidative stress-inducing potential of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) with concentrations relevant at occupational settings.
