Analysis of Pollution Status of Bisphenol A in Packaged Drinks and Related Food Safety Management Regulations
With the advancement of modern living standards,packaged drinks have become an indispensable com-ponent of people's daily lives.Bisphenol A(BPA),a common additive in plastic products,is extensively used in plastic containers,beverage bottles,and other food packaging materials due to its colorless,transparent,durable,lightweight and outstanding impact resistance.At the same time,BPA is also recognized as a typical environmental endocrine disruptor.Prolonged exposure to even low doses of BPA can result in various toxic damages to the body,including inflammation,cell damage,anxiety,depression,decreased reproductive ability and even cancer among other diseases.Recently in China,where domestic water sources have been polluted and BPA-containing food packaging materials are widely used.The presence of BPA has been detected in various packaged beverages such as purified water,juice drinks,milk and wine.Moreover,the exposure levels of different packaged beverages vary due to factors like beverage processing technology,temperature,pH level,storage time,and packaging materials.This paper aims to review the exposure levels of BPA found in commercial packaged beverages across different re-gions while summarizing regulatory measures implemented by countries or organizations such as the United States,European Union,Japanese government,and China.It will further analyze and discuss existing domestic and foreign regulations providing effective suggestions for consumers on reducing their exposure to BPA through drinking wa-ter.Thus,this study serves as a reference for investigating population exposure dosage and health risks associated with BPA.
