The 2,118 ppm finding is striking because DEP is not a primary plasticizer here but a fragrance carrier. Buyers should verify whether their suppliers use DEP or substitutes like DPG or triethyl citrate, which offer similar solvency without the same regulatory overhang.
One practical note: DEP is unsuitable for dishwasher liquids due to stability issues. Also, because DEP is odorless, some traders historically diluted fragrance concentrates with it to cut costs—gas chromatography easily detects such adulteration, so buyers should verify purity and concentration claims.
