“…Bisphenol analogs (BPs), such as bisphenol B (BPB), bisphenol F (BPF), bisphenol AF (BPAF), and bisphenol S (BPS), that belong to a group of chemicals containing two phenolic rings bridged by a carbon group similar to BPA, partially replace BPA in industrial applications. Studies have reported the occurrence of BPB, BPAF, and BPS in various environmental samples, such as dust (Liao et al, 2012a), water (Song et al, 2012), and sediment (Liao et al, 2012b;Song et al, 2012), and more recent studies have demonstrated the occurrence of BPF, BPAF, and BPS in river water and sediment samples (Yang et al, 2014) and municipal sewage sludge samples (Song et al, 2014). Although these studies demonstrated the occurrence of BPs in the environment, information on the toxicological properties of BPs is scarce.…”
