Abstract
⺠Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the endocrine disrupting chemicals. ⺠We examine the effects of BPA on anxiety like behavior and DA metabolites in brain. ⺠Perinatal exposure to BPA may alter dopamine metabolism in the male brain. ⺠BPA decreases monoamine oxidase B activity in the medulla oblongata. ⺠BPA affects on male more than female, which indicates sex difference.
