Article Synopsis
  • Bisphenol A (BPA) is a synthetic chemical linked to harmful health effects like metabolic and reproductive issues, leading to its classification as toxic in the EU and resulting in bans or restrictions on its use.
  • Industries have started using alternatives like bisphenol S (BPS) and bisphenol F (BPF), which are also toxic and currently being regulated, while other less-known BPA substitutes are emerging.
  • This review highlights the hazards of various BPA alternatives, focusing on their toxicological data related to endocrine disruption, immunotoxicity, and other health risks, with goals to identify knowledge gaps and improve chemical risk assessment methods under the European Partnership for the Assessment of Risks from Chemicals (PARC) project.

However, the active transport of MCs across intestinal membranes has not been fully elucidated.
