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]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Associations between urinary concentrations of bisphenols and serum concentrations of sex hormones among US. Males

open access: yesEnvironmental Health, 2022
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]

open access: yesChemosphere, 2019
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

The occurrence and risk assessment of bisphenol A and its analogues - bisphenol B, F, S, Z and AF in the urine of lactating sows

open access: yes, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2006
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]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Engineering and Science, 2015
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]

open access: yes, 2006
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.

Optimized preparation of activated carbon from furfural residue using response surface methodology and its application for bisphenol S adsorption

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2022
Furfural residue (FR), a solid waste, was applied as the precursor to prepare activated carbon by steam activation. The Box-Behnken design (BBD) approach-based response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to optimize the preparation conditions to ...

Bisphenol-S Influence on Oxidative Stress and Endocrine Biomarkers of Reproductive System: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2023
Background: Bisphenol-S (BPS), as a new human public health concern, was introduced to the plastic industry by BPA-free labeled products following the restrictions of Bisphenol-A (BPA) as a safe alternative.

Bisphenol A and Its Analogues Deteriorate the Hormones Physiological Function of the Male Reproductive System: A Mini-Review

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
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
