Bisphenol A content in fish caught in two different sites of the Tyrrhenian Sea (Italy)

Monitoring of bisphenols in canned tuna from Italian markets

“…Therefore, plastic fragments ingested by fishes can represent another contamination source from BPA along the food chain. As further consequence, bisphenol presence in canned fish may occur apart from packaging migration (Mita et al, 2011;Wei et al, 2011;Staniszewska et al, 2014). It is widely recognized that canned tuna is one of the most widespread fish commodities in the world.…”

The Growth Behavior of Chlorella vulgaris in Bisphenol a under different Cultural Conditions

“…The sample was then incubated for 30 min at 120 r min -1 and 35℃; the reaction was stopped by adding 2.5 mL of sulfuric acid (1.5 M). After the mixture was filtered, 25 mL filtrate was acquired and titrated using 10 μM KMnO 4 until it turned to pink (do not fate after 20 s). CAT activity (U) was calculated according to the following Eq.…”

“…Bisphenol A (BPA), which is made by Phenol and acetone [2], is an industrially important chemical that is used as a raw material in the manufacture of many products such as engineering plastics (e.g., epoxy resins/ polycarbonate plastics), food cans (i.e., lacquer coatings), and dental composites/sealants [3]. Extensive evidence indicates that BPA induces feminization during gonadal ontogeny of fishes [4], reptiles [5], birds [6], and human [7,8], and it is identified as an endocrine disruptor and leads to carcinogenesis [9]. Biology is exposed to ubiquitous BPA Though its hazardous effects, more than 5 million metric tons of BPA was produced in 2011 and was mainly used in East Asia (Korea, China and Japan), and kept increasing year by year [10,11].…”

Simultaneous extraction and cleanup of high-lipid organs from white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) for multiple legacy and emerging organic contaminants using QuEChERS sample preparation

“…Trans-nonachlor was also included with PBT pesticides because it is an impurity (>10%) and the most persistent component of technical chlordane [30]. Emergent contaminants of concern (ECC) shown to accumulate in fish tissues [31,32] were included as indicators of exposure to human sewage and include both personal care products (PCPs) and endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs).…”
