The effects of the natural vertebrate steroid 17β-oestradiol and the xeno-biotic vertebrate oestrogen receptor agonist bisphenol-A on reproduction in selected temperate freshwater gastropods: the potential for (neuro-) endocrine disruption [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University, 2010.Evidence of feminising effects, including additional or enlarged female organs, have been reported in the (sub)-tropical freshwater prosobranch ...

Background Bisphenol A (BPA) exposure and its structural analogs (BPS and BPF) might cause endocrine alterations and adverse physiological effects. Few studies to date have directly explored the association between its structural analogs (BPS, BPF) and ...

Toxicokinetics of bisphenol A, bisphenol S, and bisphenol F in a pregnancy sheep model [PDF]
Bisphenol A (BPA), S (BPS), and F (BPF) are among the most abundant bisphenols detected in humans, yet pregnancy toxicokinetics for BPS or BPF remain unknown. Because gestational BPS can disrupt placental function and result in reproductive and metabolic disorders in the progeny, the aim of the study was to investigate BPS and BPF toxicokinetics during

Bisphenols (BP) are pollutants that are globally and widely distributed and adversely affect the health of humans. However, knowledge of their presence in animals, especially farm animals such as pigs, remains limited.

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 ...

Advanced oxidative degradation of bisphenol A and bisphenol S [PDF]
In this study, the degradation of two emerging contaminants, bisphenol A (BPA) and bisphenol S (BPS), in spiked water and secondary treated waste water samples were investigated using four different oxidation methods: ultraviolet C (UVC) (254 nm), UVC/hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), ozone (O3) and ultraviolet A (UVA)/ozone (365 nm).

Bisphenol A induces superfeminization in the Ramshorn snail Marisa cornuarietis (Gastropoda: Prosobranchia) at environmentally relevant concentrations [PDF]
Previous investigations have shown that bisphenol A (BPA) induces a superfeminization syndrome in the freshwater snail Marisa cornuarietis at concentrations as low as 1 μg/L.

BPA is identified as an endocrine-disrupting chemical that deteriorates the physiological function of the hormones of the male reproductive system. Bisphenol F (BPF), bisphenol S (BPS), and bisphenol AF (BPAF) are actively explored as substitutes for BPA
