Detection of bisphenol a and four analogues in atmospheric emissions in petrochemical complexes producing polypropylene in South America
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)Switzerland, 2022)
Fabrication of a novel biosensor for biosensing of bisphenol A and detection of its damage to DNA
(Elsevier Science, 2019-04)
In this work, a novel electrochemical biosensor has been fabricated based on step-by-step modification of aglassy carbon electrode (GCE) with methylene blue (MB)-DNA/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)-chitosan (CS)/palladium ...
Monitoring the biodegradability of bisphenol A and its metabolic intermediates by manometric respirometry tests
(Springer, 2016-11-09)
As a result of its wide usage in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, bisphenol A (BPA) is commonly detected in wastewaters. Recently, BPA became a major concern because its adverse effects as an ...
Exposure to a low dose of bisphenol A impairs pituitary-ovarian axis in prepubertal rats: Effects on early folliculogenesis
(Elsevier Science, 2015-01)
The research work studies the effect of providing a low dose of bisphenol A (BPA), on the reproductive axis of prepubertal female rats. Wistar mated rats were treated with either 0.1% ethanol or BPA in their drinking water ...
Simultaneous biodegradation of bisphenol A and a biogenic substrate in semi-continuous activated sludge reactors
(Springer, 2015-06-20)
In this work, the simultaneous degradation of BPA and cheese whey (CW) in semi-continuous activated sludge reactors was studied. The acclimation process and microbial growth on BPA, CW and BPA + CW were analyzed. In addition, ...
Biodegradation of bisphenol A and its metabolic intermediates by activated sludge: Stoichiometry and kinetics analysis
(Elsevier, 2016-01)
Bisphenol A (BPA) has been described as a estrogenic compound. However, it is used in the production of polycarbonate, epoxy resins and other plastics. Mixed microbial cultures, such as activated sludge, have been proposed ...
A deregulated expression of estrogen-target genes is associated with an altered response to estradiol in aged rats perinatally exposed to Bisphenol A
(Elsevier Ireland, 2016-02)
Here we assessed the effects of perinatal exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) on the uterine response to 17bestradiol(E2) in aged rats. Pregnant rats were orally exposed to 0.5 or 50 mg BPA/kg/day from gestationalday 9 until ...
Effects of neonatal exposure to bisphenol A on steroid regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor expression and endothelial cell proliferation in the adult rat uterus
(Society for the Study of Reproduction, 2010-01)
Hormonally controlled vascular changes play a key role in endometrial development and in the differentiation process necessary for implantation. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has emerged as one of the central ...
Loss of bisphenol A removal ability of activated sludge in semi-continuous reactors (SCR)
(Elsevier, 2020-06)
Since its recognition as an endocrine disrupting chemical, bisphenol A (BPA) removal processes became not only an engineering issue but also a public health concern. In actual biological treatment systems, alternating ...
