Detection of Bisphenol A and Four Analogues in Atmospheric Emissions in Petrochemical Complexes Producing Polypropylene in South America [PDF]
Because of its toxicity and impacts on the environment and human health, bisphenol A (BPA) has been controlled in numerous industrialized nations, increasing demand for bisphenol analogues (BP) for its replacement.

In Vitro Estrogenicity of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers, Hydroxylated PBDEs, and Polybrominated Bisphenol A Compounds [PDF]
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are used in large quantities as additive flame retardants in plastics and textile materials. PBDEs are persistent compounds and have been detected in wildlife and in human adipose tissue and plasma samples. In this study, we investigated the (anti)estrogenic potencies of several PBDE congeners, three hydroxylated ...

Removal of bisphenol A by a nanofiltration membrane in view of drinking water production [PDF]
The efficiency with which a nanofiltration membrane (Desal 5 DK) removes bisphenol A(BPA) was investigated, together with the mechanisms involved. Whereas high retention (490%) was obtained at the beginning of the filtration, the observed retention ...
