“…Chromium has also been found in various soft drinks and juices stored in various containers (PET, glass, steel, or aluminum) [25,26,27]. Not only does the material or color of the bottle determine the leaching of those elements, but also storage conditions, such as the temperature or sunlight exposure and time of storage [28]. The concentration of antimony, arsenic, and chromium in bottled drinking water from the European market ranges from 0.003 [μg L −1 ] to 4.5 [μg L −1 ], from 0.012 [μg L −1 ] to 21.6 [μg L −1 ], and from 0.02 [μg L −1 ] to 28.9 [μg L −1 ] respectively [1,20].…”

The main aim of the research was to develop a complementary analytical approach consisting of bespoke speciation analysis and non-targeted speciation analysis of As, Sb, and Cr in flavored bottled drinking water samples using HPLC/ICP-DRC-MS and ESI-MS/MS. The scope of two previously developed analytical procedures, (1) multielemental speciation procedure for AsIII, AsV, CrVI, SbIII, and SbV analysis and (2) arsenic speciation procedure for AsB, AsIII, DMA, MMA, and AsV quantification, was extended to the analysis of a new sample type in terms of bespoke speciation analysis. As for the non-targeted speciation, analysis size exclusion chromatography was used with ICP-MS and a complementary technique, ESI-MS/MS, was used for the organic species of As, Sb, and Cr screening. Full validation of procedures 1 and 2 was conducted. Procedure 1 and 2 were characterized with precision values in the range from 2.5% to 5.5% and from 3.6% to 7.2%, respectively. Obtained recoveries ranged from 97% to 106% and from 99% to 106% for procedures 1 and 2, respectively. Expanded uncertainties calculated for procedures 1 and 2 ranged from 6.1% to 9.4% and from 7.4% to 9.9%, respectively. The applicability of the proposed procedures was tested on bottled drinking water samples. Results for the real samples in procedure 1 were in the range from 0.286 ± 0.027 [μg L−1] to 0.414 ± 0.039 [μg L−1] for AsIII, from 0.900 ± 0.083 [μg L−1] to 3.26 ± 0.30 [μg L−1] for AsV, and from 0.201 ± 0.012 [μg L−1] to 0.524 ± 0.032 [μg L−1] for SbV. CrVI and SbIII were not detected in any sample. As for procedure 2, results were in the range from 0.0541 ± 0.0053 [μg L−1] to 0.554 ± 0.054 [μg L−1] for AsB. Results for AsIII and AsV obtained with procedure 2 were in good accordance with results obtained with procedure 1. DMA and MMA were not detected in any sample.

“…Recently, storage conditions for bottled beverages have been reported to be able to impact human health risk potentials related to inadvertent consume of hazardous compounds [6]. Considering that (a) leaching of As and Sb from polycarbonate containers at levels exceeding US EPA drinking water standards may occur upon 12 d of sun exposure [6], and (b) our UV detectors are intended for taking preventive actions; as proof of concept, we sought to find sensitive modulation of plasmonic color within 60 min of UV exposure. To this end, as detailed in the experimental section, we stuck all the available PCNs on polycarbonate containers and characterized their UV-vis absorbance behavior across 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 min of UV exposure, see figure 4(A).…”

“…In fact, UV radiation is the major and most preventable risk factor for the development of skin cancer [3], which affect millions of people annually [5]. Furthermore, uncontrolled UV exposure of polycarbonate food packaging has been reported to provoke leaching of As and Sb from these containers at levels exceeding US EPA drinking water standards [6], which can be consumed inadvertently from bottled beverages. As a consequence, health risks from the consumption of bottled beverages increase upon UV/sun exposure.…”

Preventive healthcare is crucial to hinder or delay the onset of disease, furthermore it contributes to healthy and productive lifestyles and saves resources allocated to public health. Herein, we explore how the plasmonic coupling of silver and gold nanoparticles embedded within nanopaper allows for potential preventive healthcare tools based on a change in plasmonic color. Particularly, we selected UV radiation exposure as a potential threat to health to be monitored via plasmonic colored nanopaper (PCN). Uncontrolled UV radiation exposure is not only known to provoke epidermal damage, but also to trigger leaching of hazardous compounds from polycarbonate containers. In this context, we engineered UV-responsive PCN devices whose sensing mechanism is based on UV photodegradation of silver nanoparticles. Since absorbance and scattering of metal nanoparticles strongly depend on their size and inter-particle distance, the resulting PCN detectors are able to warn of the potential UV radiation-induced threat via a visually observable plasmonic color change with a yellowish/reddish transition. Epidermal experiments with tattoo-like PCN devices prove the resulting detectors can change in color upon safe dose of sun exposure. Moreover, PCN detectors stuck on polycarbonate containers also change in color after moderate sun exposure. This cost-effective and lightweight nanophotonic device leads to a versatile preventive healthcare tool.

“…Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical widely used in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, with more than 6 billion pounds produced each year. It is present in many consumer products, such as food containers (Lorber et al, 2015), water bottles (Rowell, Kuiper, & Preud'Homme, 2016), thermal receipts (Sogorb, Estévez, & Vilanova, 2019), and dental sealants (Vervliet et al, 2018). Due to the high quantity of BPA in industrial products, human exposure to BPA is essentially ubiquitous, mainly through diet (Lakind, & Naiman, 2011; Lorber et al, 2015), inhalation (Alkasir, Rossner, & Andreescu, 2015), and dermal absorption (Toner, Allan, Dimond, Waechter, & Beyer, 2018).…”

Neonatal exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) is hypothesized to advance pubertal development. However, the effects of neonatal BPA exposure on pubertal development has not been described. In this study, female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 0.05, 0.5, 5, or 10 mg·kg −1 ·day −1 BPA, or corn oil vehicle alone from postnatal day 1 (PND1) to PND10 via subcutaneous injection. We evaluated day of vaginal opening (DVO), ovarian morphology, serum hormone concentrations, and hypothalamic expression of Gnrh1 and Kiss1 in female rats at PND35. DVO was significantly advanced in rats exposed to 5 and 10 mg·kg −1 ·day −1 BPA. Serum hormone concentrations increased as BPA dose increased. Additionally, hypothalamic Gnrh1 and Kiss1 expression were increased with BPA exposure; rats exposed to 10 mg·kg −1 ·day −1 BPA had significantly upregulated hypothalamic Gnrh1 and Kiss1 expressions in terms of both messenger RNA and protein levels. Our results suggest that exposure to a 10 mg·kg −1 ·day −1 dose of BPA might advance pubertal development significantly. In addition, within the range of 0 to 10 mg·kg −1 ·day −1 , neonatal exposure to BPA may affect pubertal development in a dose-dependent manner.
