Additives, such as bisphenol A (BPA) that are added to packaging material to enhance functionality may migrate into food products creating a concern for food safety. BPA has been linked to various chronic diseases, such as: diabetes, obesity, prostate cancer, impaired thyroid function, and several other metabolic disorders. To safeguard consumers, BPA migration limits have been defined by regulatory bodies. However, it is important to address the underlying factors and mechanisms so that they can be optimized in order to minimize BPA migration. In this review, we determine the relative importance of the factors, i.e. temperature, contact time, pH, food composition, storage time and temperature, package type, cleaning, and aging, and packaging damage that promote BPA migration in foods. Packaging material seems to be the key source of BPA and the temperature (applied during food production, storage, can sterilization and cleaning processes) was the critical driver influencing BPA migration.

Background: Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the chemical compounds used in food packaging, so it can migrate from the packaging into food. Also, environmental pollution of this compound is high due to its high use. Therefore, it may enter food chains through the environment.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor universally present in food packaging, which may cause oxidative stress and reproductive toxicity through migration to food and ingestion then. Both Mori Fructus and selenium have excellent antioxidant ability and good therapeutic effects on reproductive improvement. Hence, in this work, Mori Fructus polysaccharide (MFP) was selected as a stabilizer to synthesize MFP‑selenium nanoparticles (MFP-SeNPs) by chemical reduction method.

Unlabelled: The chemical substance bisphenol A (BPA) is widely used in household products, and its effect on human health has frequently been the focus of research. The aim of this study was to explore the potential molecular regulatory mechanism of BPA on the proliferation and migration of lung cancer cells. In this study, the H1299 and A549 lung cancer cell lines were selected as the study objects.

Bisphenols, as common industrial raw materials, are widely used in food packaging such as plastics. However, their migration and residue may affect the hormone secretion of the human body and then lead to health problems. Therefore, a low-cost, rapid and simple detection method that can simultaneously detect multiple bisphenols is very necessary.

Northeast China as an important base of grain production in China, has been suffering from potential groundwater pollution due to the excessive and prolonged application of fertilizers and pesticides. However, exploration of emerging contaminants pollution in groundwater and assessment of human health and ecological risks caused by large-scale agricultural activities have been relatively scarce. This study collected groundwater samples from typical agricultural areas in Northeast China to investigate the extent of contamination by nitrate, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs), and then compared the levels of these pollutants with those in other regions of China.
