“…This includes bisphenol-S (4,4′-sulfonyldiphenol; BPS), which is widely used in the manufacture of epoxy resins [7], bisphenol-E (bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) ethane, BPE) for cyanate resin [8], bisphenol-F (bis(4-hydroxypheny)methane; BPF) for epoxy resin reinforced with nano polyanilines [9], and bisphenol-AF (4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphenol, BPAF) and bisphenol-Z (4,4′-(cyclohexane-1,1-diyl) diphenol, BPZ) for the manufacture of epoxy resins and polycarbonate plastics [10]. However, recent studies have shown that BPS, BPF, and other BPA analogues were widely detected in the water environment, and the pollution levels have an increasing trend [11,12]. In addition, current research studies have indicated that BPS, BPAF, and BPF can be adsorbed by aquatic organisms, and pose a serious threat to the whole ecosystem as BPA [13,14].…”

Due to the widespread use of bisphenol analogues (BPs) as alternatives to bisphenol A (BPA), considerable attention for health risk has been shown in aquatic ecosystems. The occurrence and distribution of six BPs were researched in a soluble phase (<10−3 μm), colloidal phase (10−3 μm to 1 µm), and suspended particulate matter (SPM >1 µm) in a water diversion project of Nanjing, China. Except for bisphenol Z, all BPs were detected in two or three phases, where the total concentrations of detected BPs were 161–613 ng/L, 5.19–77.2 ng/L, and 47.5–353 ng/g for the soluble phase, colloidal phase, and SPM, respectively. Among the detected compounds, BPA is still the dominant BPs in the soluble and colloidal phases, which is followed by bisphenol-S , while bisphenol-AF was the major contaminant in SPM, followed by BPA. The mean contribution proportions of colloids were 1–2 orders of magnitude higher than SPM, which suggests that colloids have a clear impact on regulating BPs’ environmental behaviors. In terms of spatial distribution, the water diversion project could reduce the pollution levels of BPs, which might further affect the ecological security of the Yangtze River.

Because of the widespread use of bisphenol analogues (BPs) as the alternatives to bisphenol A (BPA), they have attracted considerable attention for health risk in aquatic ecosystems. The occurrence and distribution of six BPs were researched in soluble phase (< 5 kDa), colloidal phase (5 kDa to 1 µm) and suspended particulate matter (SPM > 1 µm) in a water diversion project of Nanjing, China. Except for bisphenol Z, all BPs were detected in the two or three phases, the total concentrations of detected BPs were 161-613 ng/L, 5.19-77.2 ng/L and 47.5-353 ng/g for the soluble phase, colloidal phase and SPM, respectively. Among the detected compounds, BPA still the dominant BPs in the soluble and colloidal phases, followed by BPS, while BPAF was the major contaminant in SPM, followed by BPA. The mean contribution proportions of colloids were 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than SPM, suggesting that colloids have an obvious impact on regulating BPs’ environmental behaviors. In terms of spatial distribution, although the water diversion project could reduce the pollution levels of BPs, which might further affect the ecological security of the Yangtze River.

“…The NNS most used in food and drink was aspartame, followed by saccharin, acesulfame, and sucralose (18.5, 9.7, 6.8, and 3.3 thousand metric tons respectively) [20]. With the quantities of NNS being produced and consumed both increasing rapidly, their contamination in the environment has been of concern [21]. There has been quantitative reports finding NNS's in surface water (e.g.…”

Sugar Intake - Risks and Benefits and the Global Diabetes Epidemic

Non-nutritive sweetener (NNS) use has increased exponentially over the last 30 years as industrialized countries attempted, and failed, to battle obesity epidemics. Large studies have now shown that consumption of NNS’s does not help obese individuals lose weight. A large number of scientific studies on NNS’s effects have many conflicting results, methodological issues, conflicts of interest, while double blind studies represent a small minority of the studies. NNS’s have often been considered as a group despite having unique in vivo absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). Aspartame may be the most desirable NNS due to its rapid degradation in vivo, whereas saccharin and sucralose are worrisome due to their extended stability in vivo. This review will focus on the most ubiquitous NNS’s: aspartame, saccharin, acesulfame-K, sucralose, stevia, sugar alcohols (sorbitol, xylitol, and erythritol), and discuss their different chemical structures, metabolism, effect on the gut biome and cancer.
