Bisphenol A (BPA) has been used in the plastics industry for several decades. During the treatment of drinking water with chlorine reagent, the formation of chlorinated derivatives of BPA (ClxBPA) but also bromoBPA and bromochloroBPA is to be expected. Some of these compounds are considered to have an estrogenic effect and could induce major risks for human health by targeting different organs and systems in the body. In this paper, we describe the synthesis of chloro- and bromobisphenol A (ClxBPA, BrxBPA, BrxClxBPA)and their analytical characterization. These derivatives could be used as analytical standards in LC-MS/MS or evaluated in in vitro biological tests for their potential as endocrine disruptors. In this study, we evaluated the presence of BPA, ClxBPA in a pilot study from water samples. Range values found for BPA, ClxBPA were respectively 2.8-4169.3 ng/L and 0.8-11.3 ng/L.

Patients with end stage kidney disease treated by dialysis (ESKDD) process dialysis sessions to remove molecules usually excreted by kidneys. However, dialysis therapy could also contribute to endocrine disruptors (ED) burden. Indeed, materials like dialyzer filters, ultrapure dialysate and replacement fluid could exposed ESKDD patients to Bisphenol A (BPA) and chlorinated derivatives of BPA (ClxBPAs).

Chlorobisphenol A (ClBPA) is a kind of novel estrogenic compounds. The present study aims to investigate the effects of three ClBPA compounds on the kisspeptin/G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54, also named KissR1)-gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) (KGG) system in neuronal GT1-7 cells with mechanistic insights by estrogen receptor signaling pathways. The study demonstrated that low-concentration ClBPA induced the cell proliferation, promoted GnRH secretion, upregulated the expression of KGG neuroendocrine signal-related proteins (KissR1, GnRH1 and kisspeptin) and genes including Kiss1, GnRH1, KissR1, luteinizing hormone receptor (Lhr) and follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (Fshr) in GT1-7 cells.

During chlorination treatments of drinking water, aqueous bisphenol A (BPA) can react with chlorine to form chlorinated derivatives of BPA (mono, di, tri and tetra-chlorinated derivatives) or ClBPA. These emerging substances are endocrine disruptors associated with obesity, type II diabetes (TD2M) and myocardial infarction. ClBPA are present in different human biological matrices but their toxicokinetics remain unknown.

Context: Bisphenol A (BPA) is a ubiquitous contaminant with endocrine-disrupting effects in mammals. During chlorination treatment of drinking water, aqueous BPA can react with chlorine to form chlorinated derivatives of BPA (mono, di, tri and tetra-chlorinated derivatives) or ClBPA.
Objective: The aim of this study is to summarize and present the state of knowledge on human toxicological risk assessment of ClBPA.

The health safety conditions governing the practice of online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) do not yet incorporate the risks related to the presence of endocrine disruptors such as bisphenol A (BPA). The aim of this study was to assess, for the first time, the exposure to BPA but also to its chlorinated derivatives (ClxBPA) (100 times more estrogenic than BPA) during OL-HDF. We demonstrated that BPA is transmitted by the different medical devices used in OL-HDF: ultrafilters, dialysis concentrate cartridges (and not only dialyzers, as previously described).
