“…Unfortunately, BPA may leach out from these items and penetrate to food, drinking water and environment [ 3 , 4 , 5 ]. Till now the presence of BPA was found in the surface water, soil, air and food of animal and plant origin around the world [ 3 , 4 , 6 , 7 ].…”

The Comparison of the Influence of Bisphenol A (BPA) and Its Analogue Bisphenol S (BPS) on the Enteric Nervous System of the Distal Colon in Mice

Bisphenol A (BPA), commonly used as a plasticizer in various branches of industry has a strong negative effect on living organisms. Therefore, more and more often it is replaced in production of plastics by other substances. One of them is bisphenol S (BPS). This study for the first time compares the impact of BPA and BPS on the enteric neurons using double immunofluorescence technique. It has been shown that both BPA and BPS affect the number of enteric neurons containing substance P (SP), galanin (GAL), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), neuronal isoform of nitric oxide synthase (nNOS—a marker of nitrergic neurons) and/or vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT- a marker of cholinergic neurons). The changes noted under the impact of both bisphenols are similar and consisted of an increase in the number of enteric neurons immunoreactive to all neuronal factors studied. The impact of BPS on some populations of neurons was stronger than that noted under the influence of BPA. The obtained results clearly show that BPS (similarly to BPA) administered for long time is not neutral for the enteric neurons even in relatively low doses and may be more potent than BPA for certain neuronal populations.

“…Some water pollutants can be toxic through a cumulative effect if ingested repeatedly. This is particularly true of certain micropollutants such as trace metals and bisphenol A (BPA) [18,19]. BPA, whose chemical name is 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenol) propane, is a synthetic chemical mainly used to manufacture plastics and resins.…”

The consumption of packaged water is growing rapidly in both urban and rural centres in Burkina Faso. Bisphenol A (BPA) and trace metals are among the compounds used in the manufacture of plastic packaging, and their presence in water can pose a health risk to consumers due to their alleged toxicity. Therefore, this study explores the transfer of these compounds from plastic packaging to mineral water in Sudano-Sahelian climatic conditions. Ten samples of packaged sachet water commercialised in Ouagadougou were studied. An absence of BPA in the borehole water used to produce packaged water has been shown. The transfer of BPA into mineral water increases with storage temperature. The BPA that appears in packaged water degrades over time. BPA concentrations ranged from 0 to 0.38 mg/L after two weeks of storage, 0 to 0.8 mg/L after four weeks of storage and 0 to 0.35 mg/L after 8 weeks of storage. Analysis of the trace metals showed steadily increasing concentrations from the second to the sixth weeks, with concentrations ranging from 0 to 9.7 µg/L for cadmium and from 0 to 0.13 mg/L for iron in the sachet water samples.

“…Bisphenols are considered endocrine disruptors compounds, altering the function of the endocrine system, and causing side effects on health in living organisms [26]. These can be found in industrial and household chemicals and are usually used for the fabrication of hard plastic, such as polycarbonate plastic, leaching into the environment, including drinking water [27,28]. In this study, we have shown that polymer monoliths shaped as small cubes can be directly used as SPE materials in different extraction modes assisted either by vortex mixing, magnetic stirring, or with an orbital shaker.…”

Polymer monoliths are promising materials for sample preparation due to their high porosity, pH stability, and simple preparation. The use of melamine formaldehyde foams has been reported as an effective support to prepare highly robust silica and polymer monoliths. Herein, divinylbenzene monoliths based on a 50:50 (%, w/w) crosslinker/porogen ratio have been nested within a melamine‐formaldehyde sponge, resulting in monoliths with a surface area higher than 400 m2/g. The extraction performance of these monoliths was evaluated for the extraction of endocrine‐disrupting bisphenols from aqueous solutions. We evaluated for the first time the versatility of sponge‐nested polymer monoliths by comparing three different extraction modes (vortex mixing, magnetic stirring, and orbital shaking). Vortex mixing showed a comparable recovery of bisphenols (39%–81%) in a shorter extraction time (30 min, instead of 2 h). In addition, the robustness of the sponge‐nested polymer monoliths was demonstrated for the first time by reshaping a larger monolithic cube (0.125 cm3) into four smaller pieces (4 × 0.03125 cm3) leading to a 16%–21% increase in extraction efficiency. This effect was attributed to an increase in the effective contact area with the sample, obtaining a higher analyte extraction capacity.
