Internal Bisphenol Analogue Exposure in an Elderly Chinese Population: Knowledge from Dietary Exposure.

ABSTRACT: Due to its endocrine-disrupting effects and neurotoxicity, Bisphenol A (BPA) has been banned from some products and some countries; therefore, alternatives are increasingly being used. Studies have been performed to evaluate internal Bisphenol analogue (BP) exposure in children, adolescents and adults; however, little information on elderly age groups is available.
