Research Progress on Pollution of Bisphenol A in China's Environmental Water Bodies and Its Potential Hazards
The consumption of bisphenol A(BPA)in China has been steadily increasing as a popular plastic addi-tive.However,it is also recognized as a typical environmental endocrine disruptor.Even at low concentrations,pro-longed exposure to BPA can lead to neurotoxicity,liver toxicity,reproductive toxicity,immunotoxicity and other adverse effects,contributing to various diseases such as diabetes,inflammation,obesity,anxiety,depression and e-ven cancer.In recent years,BPA has been detected in various environmental water bodies in China due to water pollution caused by industrial development and plastic waste discharge.Furthermore,the level of BPA exposure in each water sample varies depending on geographic regions,seasonal temperature variations,and other factors.This paper presents the latest research advancements in understanding the multiple toxic effects and strategies for mitiga-ting the toxicity of BPA.It also provides a comprehensive summary of BPA pollution levels in various environmen-tal water bodies in China over the past decade,along with an analysis and discussion of influencing factors.The aim is to offer valuable insights for studying population exposure doses and health risks associated with BPA.
