“…The unexpected presence of BPA in glass bottled beverage samples emphasizes the ubiquity of such compound beside the food fabrication chain, far off to the food packaging materials. Nevertheless, Russo et al (2019) have illustrated in the review literature that the BPA cannot be identified in glass bottled beverages but could only be identified in canned and plastic packed products due to the application of bisphenol A diglycidyl ether in the inner coating of beverage cans and therefore passes in the fabrication of epoxy phenolic resins (Russo et al, 2019). This information is completely contradictory in comparison with our results even BPA has been identified at higher concentrations.…”

Trace analysis of environmental endocrine disrupting contaminant bisphenol A in canned, glass and polyethylene terephthalate plastic carbonated beverages of diverse flavors and origin

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a hazardous contaminant demonstrating endocrine disrupting properties, and assumed to be involved in the pathogenesis of various cancer diseases for instance prostate, lung and breast cancer. The objective of the present study was to estimate the BPA amounts in carbonated beverages from the Saudi Arabian market for the first time using an authenticated technique based on solid-phase extraction and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. A total of thirty-four carbonated beverages of different flavors, origin and packaging materials were studied. The beverage production periods were from February 2018 to July 2018 containing volume (250-1000 mL), packaging materials were of canned, glass and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic. BPA amounts in canned (0.64-11.41 µg/L), glass bottled (1.92-29.56 µg/L) and PET plastic bottled (0.37-21.83 µg/L) were obtained with recovery (97.64-99.96%). Relatively, glass bottled has offered higher amounts of BPA compared to PET plastic bottled and canned samples. The unforeseen presence of BPA especially in glass bottled emphasizes the ubiquity of such compound beside the food fabrication chain, far off to the food packaging materials. Thus, a further knowledge on BPA amounts in glass bottled samples, in addition to threat assessment studies, is essential to defend human health.

“…8 It was reported that high BPA concentration is present in canned vegetables and fruits approximately ranging from 3.7 mg/kg to 959 mg/kg, while from 1.0 mg/kg to 223.91 mg/kg was detected in seafood. 8 Numerous health-related issues have been reported due to consumption of BPA and its migration into ecosystem, namely mutagenicity, 9 teratogenicity, 10 obesity, 11 hepatotoxicity, 12 neurotoxicity, 13 and immunotoxicity. 14 Its bioaccumulation has been reported in the trophic level of food chain that can even cause death of fresh water and marine fauna.…”

Subchronic toxicity of bisphenol A on the architecture of spleen and hepatic trace metals and protein profile of adult male Wistar rats

et al. 2020

Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the widely used chemical as a plasticizer and regarded as endocrine disruptor because of its ability to derail body metabolic functions and adverse effect on the vital organs. The present work outlined the subchronic effect of low-dose BPA (10 mg/kg) on histology of spleen, level of hepatic trace metals, and hepatic protein profile of Wistar rats. To conduct the research work, animals were grouped into two categories ( n = 5). Group 1 was labelled as the control group and group 2 was taken as an experimental group. Experimental group was exposed to low-dose BPA for 12 weeks. Histopathology of spleen highlighted dilation in splenic sinuses, follicle activation, followed by depopulation in the area of white pulp and red pulp in the experimental group. Iron staining revealed significant hemosiderosis in the experimental group when compared with the control group. Statistically significant decrease was noted in zinc and copper concentrations, while nonsignificant change was observed for magnesium concentration through atomic absorption spectroscopy. Sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was run for hepatic protein profiling, and as compared to control, elevated levels of different proteins were observed in the experimental group. It can be concluded from the above results that even low dose of BPA causes changes in the major organs of the body. Hence, it is suggested that BPA alternative should be used, so that public health status can be secured.

“…The plastics made from PET are the most frequently used consumer plastics. For instance, polyethylene terephthalate can also be used as the primary material in creating water-resistant paper (Russo et al, 2019). With the aforementioned importance of PET, waste containers generated from polyethylene terephthalate have constituted menace to the environment (United Nations Environment Program, 2016).…”
