The contribution of diet to total bisphenol A body burden in humans: Results of a 48 hour fasting study
چکیده انگلیسی

Human biomonitoring studies measuring bisphenol A (BPA) in urine have shown widespread exposure in the general population. Diet is thought to be a major route of exposure. We studied urinary BPA patterns in five individuals over a 48-h period of fasting (bottled water only). Personal activity patterns were recorded with a diary to investigate non-dietary routes of exposure. All urine void events during the fast were collected, as well as events before and after the fast. The pattern of BPA concentrations was similar for all participants: they rose near the beginning of the fast (after the pre-fast meal), declined over the next 24 h, fluctuated at lower levels during the second day, and then rose after the post-fast meal. Concentrations (~ 2 μg/g creatine) and calculated BPA intakes (~ 0.03 μg/kg-day) in these individuals during the first 24 h were consistent with general population exposures. For the second 24 h, concentrations and intakes declined by about two-thirds. One of the individuals had an extraordinary pre-fast exposure event with concentrations rising as high as 98 μg/g creatine but declining to < 5 μg/g creatine by day 2. Given patterns found in day 1 and the subsequent decline to lower levels in day 2, we hypothesize that BPA exposures in these individuals were diet-driven. No events in the diary (use of personal care products, e.g.) appear associated with exposures. On day 2, non-dietary sources may still be present, such as from dust. Another hypothesis is that small reservoirs of BPA from past exposures are released from storage (lipid reservoirs, e.g.) and excreted.


► Human biomonitoring studies show widespread BPA exposure in the general population.
► We studied urinary BPA patterns in five individuals over a 48‐h period of fasting.
► BPA concentrations rose after starting the fast, but declined over the next 24 h.
► Concentrations were low during the second day, then rose after the fast ended.
